Landing Platform Vessel 1, nicknamed Jacklyn, is a barge which was manufactured for Blue Origin in 2024 for use as a landing platform ship. It is meant to enter service in 2024 for the New Glenn launch vehicle.
The LPV1 barge replaced the ship, also named Jacklyn, that Blue Origin had purchased in 2018 and intended to use as a landing platform vessel until 2022, when Blue scrapped it.
