Description
English: Military Sealift Command large, medium-speed, roll-on/roll-off ship USNS Watkins (back) and heavy lift ship MV Mighty Servant I moor side-by-side off San Diego during a Mobile Landing Platform demonstration Oct 12. Cargo from Watkins was transferred to Mighty Servant I and then loaded onto hovercraft for delivery to shore during a test of a new military logistics concept known as seabasing. Sea bases are envisioned as virtual floating military bases composed of more than a dozen amphibious assault ships, auxiliary vessels and connector vessels. These bases will enable the military to deploy U.S. forces and their cargo from the sea to contingency sites anywhere in the world. Photo courtesy of Navy Program Executive Office
