Hovercraft
- Landing Craft Air Cushion, a US Navy hull classification symbol for the Landing Craft Air Cushion-class hovercraft
- LCAC(L), a light assault hovercraft used by the Royal Navy and Marines
- Lebed-class LCAC, an air-cushioned landing craft used by the Soviet and later Russian Navy

LCAC (United Kingdom)
The Landing Craft Air Cushion (LCAC) in British service is a small amphibious hovercraft able to transverse both land and water. Like all amphibious landing craft in the Royal Navy, they are operated by the Royal Marines to transport troops or equipment from ship to shore during an amphibious landing.
2000TDX
The Griffon 2000TDX is the first LCAC(L) to enter service with the Royal Navy and Royal Marines, the added (L) indicates that it is a LCAC Light. The 2000TDX is based on the basic 2000TD model with modifications for military use. Due to the nature of the LCAC (being a hovercraft), they displace very little water despite their large size, they also produce next to no wake at high speed - this makes the LCAC more stealthy than traditional landing craft and with their powerful engines, much faster.
Four LCACs are in service as of 2012, with pennant numbers C21, C22, C23 and C24.
Specifications
The Landing Craft Air Cushion 2000TDX has the following specifications:
Ship-to-Shore Connector
The Ship-to-Shore Connector (SSC) is a system proposed by the US Navy as a replacement for the Landing Craft Air Cushion (LCAC). It will offer increased capacity, to cope with the growing weight of equipment used by the Army and Marines.As of 2015, the program is forecast to cost a total of US$4.054B for 73 hovercraft.
History
Several proposals have been made to replace the LCAC. In 2003, the Navy Transformation Roadmap set out plans to start R&D on a "Heavy Lift LCAC" project in 2005, but this was superseded by the LCAC(X) "LCAC Replacement Tactical Assault Connector". In August 2010, the US Navy issued a Request For Proposals for a contract to design and build 72 SSCs. The contract would be worth up to US$4 billion. A contract for detailed design work, and construction of the first test and training craft, was expected to be awarded in 2011.

Cara De Pizza
by: La CucaEs una cara? No!
Es una Pizza? No!
Es una cara? No!
Es una Pizza? No!
Es la Senhorita cara de Pizza!!!
Dicen que su madre durante el embarazo
Se comio diez pizzas de un chingadazo
Andan diciendo que es una mutante
(A mi no me interesa yo quiero ser su amante)
Senhorita Cara de Pizza
Yo te amo Cara de Pizza
(Eres un amor)
Tiene un corazon que es la envidia de cualquiera
Yo la adorara hasta el dia en que se muriera
Ella es una belleza (ella si tiene cabeza)
Ella si que me emociona (ella es buena persona)
Ella si se ve sabrosa (yo quiero que sea mi esposa)
Senhorita Cara de Pizza
Yo te amo Cara de Pizza
Es como apreciar una obra de arte
Picasso la tendria como unico estandarte
Quiero estirarle sus cachetes de queso
En su boquita de pimiento yo quiero darle un beso
Yo la adoraria de cualquier manera
Con mariscos en la cara a la marinera!
Senhorita Cara de Pizza
Yo te amo Cara de Pizza
Senhorita Cara de Pizza
Yo te amo Cara de Pizza
(Eres un amor)
Ahora voy a verla y voy bien alimentado
No vaya a pasar lo que paso aquel dia pasado
Llegue con mucha hambre y le chingue una rebanada
(Espero me perdone y no me mande a la chingada)
Senhorita Cara de Pizza
Yo te amo Cara de Pizza
