Endurance-class Landing Ship Tank

Meeting multiple missions

Meet the largest vessels in the RSN. Designed and built in Singapore, our Landing Ships Tank (LSTs) have served in missions around the world, from disaster relief in Aceh to counter-piracy in the Gulf of Aden.

Size and Capacity

In 2000, RSS Endurance was the first ship in the RSN to circumnavigate the globe in four months. Not only was this the longest and furthest any RSN vessel had sailed, RSS Endurance did so battling rough seas and seven-metre-high waves. But thanks to its weighty design, it came through with flying colours.
