Třída Mercy je třídou nemocničních lodí používaných námořnictvem Spojených států amerických jako námořní nemocnice. Jedná se o přestavěnou třídu supertankerů San Clemente. Sestává ze dvou jednotek. Obě jsou pod správou organizace Military Sealift Command. Žádná z těchto lodí není vybavena dělostřeleckými zbraněmi a střelba na ně je považována za válečný zločin.
Stavba
Obě dvě nemocniční lodě této třídy postavila americká loděnice NASSCO v San Diegu.[1]

Manila, Philippines (May 23, 2006) - The Military Sealift Command (MSC) hospital ship USNS Mercy (T-AH 19) sits anchored off of the coast of Philippine capitol of Manila. Mercy's three-day port-call included several meetings with host nation officials and the ship's staff and crew. Tours of the ship's medical facilities were also made available to press and family members of the crew, who are living in the Manila area. Mercy is conducting a five-month humanitarian deployment to South and Southeast Asia, and the Pacific Islands. The medical crew aboard Mercy will provide general and ophthalmology surgery, basic medical evaluation and treatment, preventive medicine treatment, dental screenings and treatment, optometry screenings, eyewear distribution, public health training and veterinary services as requested by the host nations. Like all U.S. Naval forces Mercy is able to rapidly respond to a range of situations on short notice. Mercy is uniquely capable of supporting medical and humanitarian assistance needs and is configured with special medical equipment and a robust multi-specialized medical team who can provide a range of services ashore as well as aboard the ship. The medical staff is augmented with an assistance crew, many of whom are part of non-governmental organizations that have significant medical capabilities.
