List of United States Navy LSTs

Summary

A full list of United States Navy LSTs. The Landing Ship, Tanks (LSTs) built for the United States Navy during and immediately after World War II were only given an LST-number hull designation, but on 1 July 1955, county or Louisiana-parish names were assigned to those ships which remained in service. More recent LSTs were named on launching.
