A domestically built warship

The process begins with conceptual design, where naval architects and engineers develop preliminary plans based on the specified operational requirements. This phase involves extensive research into the vessel's intended use, whether for surface combat, anti-submarine warfare, or logistical support. The design must account for various factors, such as speed, maneuverability, armament configuration, and the capacity to accommodate crew and equipment. Advanced computer-aided design (CAD) software plays a critical role in visualizing the ship’s structure and performance before construction begins.
