Endurance 170 LHD/LHA
Endurance 170 design, a landing helicopter assault (LHA) ship that measures 170m long from ST Marine Singapore, and was first displayed at IMDEX Asia 2017. It is an evolution of the Endurance 160, of which a scale model was on display. Far more capable than the four-ship Endurance 140 LPD class currently operated by the Republic of Singapore Navy (RSN), ST Marine said it had a 'potential customer' for the Endurance 170.

The New York Times reported on 16 October that the People’s Republic of China had leased the island of Tulagi from Solomon Islands. A secret deal was apparently struck in September, no doubt around the time Prime Minister Manasseh Sogavare ascended to his leadership role and Solomon Islands announced its switch from recognising Taipei to Beijing. Tulagi is remembered mostly as the place where the pivotal Allied campaign for Guadalcanal started in World War II. With the leasing of the island, we may well have a shift in the strategic competition in the Pacific.
