Coastal Transports

(APc)

Most recent update: December 16, 2020.

In World War II, the Navy built 100 wooden-hulled fast coastal transports and four modified C1-M-AV1s, primarily to ferry troops around the Pacific Theater. After the war, almost all were sold or otherwise disposed-of but where they went is not clear at all.
