USS LST-1104 was an LST-542-class tank landing ship in the United States Navy. Like many of her class, she was not named and is properly referred to by her hull designation. LST-1104 was laid down on 1 December 1944 at Evansville, Indiana, by the Missouri Valley Bridge & Iron Co.; launched on 17 January 1945; sponsored by Mrs. Walter G. Koch; and commissioned on 8 February 1945, Lt. John F. Kelly, USNR, in command. In Argentine service, LST-1104 was briefly renamed Samba, possibly only before she was taken up by the Argentine Navy, where she was redesignated BDT-12. She was retired in 1958.

During World War II, LST-1104 was assigned to the Asiatic-Pacific theater and participated in the assault and occupation of Okinawa Gunto in June 1945.
