Notes on class | These ships were merchant ships requisitioned by the Admiralty. Displacement and armament are listed, if known to us, on each individual page. There were other ships in operation as Landing Ships Infantry but these were operated by the MoWT and were civilian manned. These ships are not listed here. The following former Armed Merchant Cruisers were manned with naval personnel. As we don't want to list them twice here are the links to their pages as Armed Merchant Cruiser.
You will find the details for their service as Landing Ships Infantry there; Royal Australian Navy LSI(L) HMAS Kanimbla Royal Canadian Navy LSI(M) HMCS Prince David |
