The Algol-class vehicle cargo ships, also known as Fast Sealift Ships (FSS) or SL-7s, are currently the fastest cargo ships in the world, capable of speeds in excess of 33 knots (61 km/h). Originally built in 1972 and 1973 as high-speed container ships known as SL-7's for Sea-Land Services, Inc., the ships' high operating costs limited their profitability. All eight ships were acquired by the US Navy in 1981 and 1982, with the last ship converted, delivered to and placed in service with Military Sealift Command in 1986. The conversion entailed the installation of four cranes, addition of roll on/roll off capability and a redesign of the cargo hold to better facilitate storage of vehicles. Due largely to their high cost of operation, all fast sealift ships are kept in Reduced Operating Stat

  • Die Algol-Klasse (auch Fast Sealift Ships) ist eine Klasse von acht dampfturbinengetriebenen Frachtschiffen des Military Sealift Command. Ursprünglich wurden die Schiffe als Containerschiffe der SL-7-Klasse für die Reederei Sea-Land Corporation gebaut. Sea-Land nahm die Schiffe 1972/73 in Betrieb und verkaufte alle acht Schiffe 1981/1982 nach kurzer Aufliegezeit an die US Navy. Die Containerschiffe des Typs SL-7 waren bei ihrem Bau die weltweit größten Containerschiffe und sind bis heute die schnellsten jemals gebauten Frachtschiffe. (de)
