Kalaat Beni Abbes (L-474) (Шаблон:Lang-ar) is an amphibious transport dock[1] of the Algerian National Navy. The ship built by the Italian firm Fincantieri as an enlarged and improved version of the Шаблон:Sclass. The ship measures Шаблон:Convert long and Шаблон:Convert wide.[1]

The ship has a continuous flight deck with two deck-landing spots for helicopters at the bow and stern.[2]

Ordered in 2011, the ship was commissioned by the Algerian National Navy on 4 September 2014.[3][4] The first official docking - and commissioning ceremony - was on 28 March 2015 in the presence of the Chief of Staff of the ANP and the High Command of the Algerian National Navy.[5]

The 2021 Algerian-Israeli naval incident took place near this ship. It deployed two Superlynx anti-submarine warfare helicopters to detect an intruder Israeli submarine while Algerian submarines surrounded it and chased it away.[6]
