Hi Chris,
The USS Donner LSD 16 was a Cabildo class LSD. There are no kits of that specific class but Loose Cannon or Corsair Armada made the Belle Grove LSD 2 but I'll be darned if I can find one now (photo below)and I believe they're identical. JAG made the Ashland LSD1 also in 1/700 and identical to the LSD 16 but I can't seem to find any of them on the net either. Try Ebay.
