This research describes the Study of a basic
ship design and stealthy performance of a Defense
Frigate Trimaran ship for the Comorian Coast Guard
(CCG) as part of the Comoros government military
asset. The Comoros island is located between
Madagascar, Mozambique and Tanzania in the
Mozambique canal. This research implies the
importance of using ship System Integration of the
Chinese frigates design. It also recommends expanding
the machine gun Systems Integration domain in frigate
procurement. The study is looking at current and future
propulsion technology based on the mission need
statement of the Union of Comoros. The automated
process and ways of designing a Defense Frigate
Trimaran (DFT) presented in this paper provides a
rational and thorough methods to search a design space.
The concept of the design represent the best basis for
assessing technologies over a range of possibilities
considering effectiveness, cost and risk. This automated
approach and new tools are evaluated in the context of
an Agile Surface Combatant Ship (ASC) and R/V Triton
case study as mother ships. The Union of Comoros lacks
modern high speed ships for the country's needs, due to
the absence of adequate ships such as frigates,
destroyers, and so on. This research is an opportunity
and open door for not only the Union of Comoros, but
for the Indian ocean countries to acquire sufficient vessel
for protecting their seas, especially the eastern African
countries. To fulfill the DFT designing research,
computing software and calculations will be utilized for
the ship resistance and hydrostatics calculations, up to
the finishing project. The accomplishment of this
research will allow the Comoros government to inter in
the Naval ship design industry that will lead the CCG to
acquire abilities of protecting the Comoros government
sovereignty and economy. The selected DFT alternative
is a low risk, low cost, knee-in-the-curve displacement
multihull (trimaran) design on the cost-risk-effectiveness
frontier. This design was chosen because it provides a
sharp increase in effectiveness with a minimal increase in
cost at a high endurance and at low risk level based on
the calculation results. The emphasis of this paper is on
the concept exploration design and requirements process
