Two British LCM(2)s after the Dieppe Raid 1942. The landing craft, mechanised Mark I, was an early British model. It was able to be slung under the davits of a liner or on a cargo ship boom with the result that it was limited to a 16-ton tank.
For example, 10 is a multiple of 5 because 5 × 2 = 10, so 10 is divisible by 5 and 2. Because 10 is the smallest positive integer that is divisible by both 5 and 2, it is the least common multiple of 5 and 2. By the same principle, 10 is the least common multiple of −5 and −2 as well.
In 2009, the Australian Defence Force began plans to acquire landing craft for the under-construction Canberra-class landing helicopter dock ships. Arrangements were made to acquire craft from Navantia (the builder responsible for the LHDs), and in September 2011, the purchase of 12 LCM-1E craft was approved by the Australian government.

YOG-42 - under tow by USS Navajo when Navajo was torpedoed and sunk by Japanese submarine I-39 on 12 September 1943, 150 miles East of Espiritu Santo, recovered by USS Sioux, later YOGN-42, intentionally beached on Lanai, Hawaiian Islands in 1950 [89]
Narvik and Dunkirk claimed almost all of the 1920s Motor Landing Craft and, therefore, the LCM(1) was the common British and Commonwealth vehicle and stores landing craft until US manufactured types became available. Early in the war LCM(1) were referred to commonly as Landing Barges by both the military and the press.
The generator polynomial of the BCH code is defined as the least common multiple g(x) = lcm(m 1 (x),…,m d − 1 (x)). It can be seen that g(x) is a polynomial with coefficients in GF(q) and divides x n − 1. Therefore, the polynomial code defined by g(x) is a cyclic code.
