    • Abstract:
      FUTURE CAPABILITIES Navy's two hospital ships, USNS MERCY (T-AH 19) and USNS COMFORT (T-AH 20), are San Clemente class supertankers that were converted to hospital ships in the late-1980s.

HSS enabled multi-mission platforms to broaden the military and civilian capabilities and allow for tailored employment strategies not possible with the traditional "all or nothing" approach with our hospital ships.
