The Hamul class were a class of destroyer tenders that were initially constructed as attack cargo ships for the United States Navy during World War II.

[2][3] As attack cargo ships, they had a displacement of 11,755 long tons (11,944 t).

[3][4] After their conversion to destroyer tenders, they had a light displacement of 8,860 long tons (9,000 t) and measured 14,800 long tons (15,000 t) at full load.

They were powered by steam generated from two Foster Wheeler boilers turning geared turbines creating 8,500 shaft horsepower (6,300 kW).

This gave them a maximum speed of 18.4 knots (34.1 km/h; 21.2 mph).
