8 heavy transports as the backbone. Hope y'awl have a buttload of fast RO/RO ships.
6 of them, not a lot by US force levels, but reasobale for the UK. Foreland Shipping Limited, manages them for the MOD Strategic Sealift Service (yes, yet another PFI...).

The ships are: Beachy Head, Longstone, Hartland Point, Anvil Point, Hurst Point and Eddystone. Current Fleet. All built within a couple of years....
