LCM (3) (full English name: Landing Craft Mechanized 3) was an American amphibious assault ship during World War II and the post-war period. Barges of this type were massively built in 1942-1945. It is estimated that over 8,500 barges of this type were built at the time. The total length of the LCM (3) was 15.2 meters and a width of 4.3 meters. The empty barge weighed approximately 23 tons, and the maximum speed of the loaded barge did not exceed 8 knots.
