USS Wasp (LHD-1) Multi-Purpose Amphibious Assault Ship Watercolor Print by Adam Koltz. Giclee on U.S.G.S. Nautical Chart of Home Port at Naval Station Norfolk, VA.

USS Wasp is the lead ship of her class. She and her sister ships are the first specifically designed to accommodate new Landing Craft, Air Cushion (LCAC) for fast troop movement over the beach and Harrier II (AV-8B) Vertical/Short Take-Off and Landing (V/STOL) jets which provide close air support for the assault force. In 2007 she was the first ship to deploy the V-22 Osprey, and most recently in 2011 she was modified to accommodate the new Lockheed Martin F-35B Lightning short takeoff and vertical landing aircraft.
