New 33,000 tons Italian LHD Trieste arriving in the Gulf of La Spezia (January 7th, 2020), to continue her fitting-out in preparation for her commissioning in 2022

Wow.  Almost as big as the America and Queen Elizabeth but a dedicated LHD?  LOVE IT!  Additionally if you're an aviation guy then you got to love the idea of a dedicated platform to control aircraft with the ship drivers being happy about the same to steer the thing.

The Italians are doing it right.

Evolution beats revolution!
