Explained in plain English

What is amphibious warfare?

Amphibious forces are military units trained to operate on land and sea, often by launching attacks from ships onto enemy shores. This deal for transport ships is crucial for them, as these vessels allow troops, vehicles, and equipment to be moved across water and deployed directly onto land, enhancing NATO's ability to project power.
