The LCM (3) (full English name: Landing Craft Mechanized 3) is an American landing craft from World War II and the post-war period. Barges of this type were built on a massive scale in 1942-1945. It is estimated that over 8,500 barges of this type were built at that time. The total length of the LCM (3) was 15.2 meters and a width of 4.3 meters. The empty barge weighed approximately 23 tons, and the maximum speed of the loaded barge did not exceed 8 knots. Most often, the deck armament consisted of two 7.62 mm Browning machine guns. The LCM (3) was designed by the American entrepreneur and constructor Andrew Higgins based on another landing barge of his design - LCVP. Unlike its predecessor, the new barge was longer and wider, but in general was clearly modeled on it. The main task of the LCM (3) was to transport a single forehead (eg M4 Sherman) weighing up to approx. 29-30 tons to the shore. The barge could also carry 60 soldiers in full equipment or 27 tons of supplies. Units of this type were used on a large scale during amphibious operations in Europe and the Far East.

The LCM 3 is an Allied landing barge from the Second World War. Two versions were created: BUREAU and Higgins. The first one could carry 54 tons of cargo. The second, on the other hand, was capable of carrying an M4 tank or 60 soldiers or 27 tons of cargo.
