Roll-on/roll-off discharge facility

A roll-on/roll-off discharge facility (RRDF) is a floating platform that provides a roadway between a ship's ramp and lighterage. It is constructed by connecting multiple causeway sections.

The ramp of the USNS Bobo connects the ship to a roll-on/roll-off discharge facility
