High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! USNS Shughart (T-AKR-295) is the lead ship of her class of cargo ships. A 'roll-on roll-off' non-combat United States Naval LSMR, she holds the designation of a Large, Medium-speed, roll-on/roll-off ship. Shughart was originally owned by a commercial shipping company before purchase by the U.S. Navy. Previously named Laura Maersk, she was rechristened in honor of Medal of Honor recipient US Army Sergeant First Class Randall D. Shughart. Shughart, along with others in her class, is capable of carrying 58 tanks, 48 other track vehicles, plus more than 900 trucks and other wheeled vehicles. To manipulate the immense cargo capacity, Shughart utilises two 110-ton cranes, a starboard ramp, and a stern ramp.
