Looks like a landing ship.

I don't care how often they tell us those things are literally warships, they're not.

Based on commercial ferry design

Won't this compromise it's combat survivability?

Not really i was on board a similar type of vessel in the gulf in 2003 you will likely find she will be escorted as well but no shouldn't do anything to compromise her.

HMS Ocean was similar based on a commercial design

I am not sure it is wise to just assume that escorts can provide perfect protection. I seem to recall that KSA learned it the hard way.
