The Suribachi-class ammunition ships are a class of two auxiliary vessels of the United States Navy. They were among the first specialized underway replenishment ships built after the Second World War. The Nitro-class ammunition ships are sometimes considered part of this class.
Mauna Kea was used for target practice in 2006, and Suribachi was scrapped in the summer of 2009.
