When the LST (3)s were ordered, the LST (2) programme was in full swing, and similar arrangements were made to enable the LSTs to carry the 112 feet (34 m) long LCT5 or LCT6 that were being built in America for the Royal Navy.
Da "LST (3)" ordrerne blev afgivet var "LST (2)" programmet i fuld gang og tilsvarende forberedelser blev gjort for at gøre det muligt for LST-erne at medtage 34 m lange LCT5 eller LCT6, som blev bygget i Amerika til Royal Navy.
