I wanted to ask for a while, but keep forgetting, but looking at Sea of Islands (Aegean), what type of naval vessel would be good for patroling the area ?

If we implement a Smart Buoy network for various reasons we've mentioned in the past. What type of Naval vessel would be ideal to patrol the area ?
A usv mothership (imo a catamaran for lower draft and more workspace) loaded with air defence up top (CIWS and PDMS) and workshop within to rearm and resupply usvs on the go. Mothership can have a codlad, or something similar, drive and cruise on electric power while USV are deploy and either defend an area or attack, or recon through them, keeping it hundreds of kms away from enemy ships.

Why do i doubt the I+ class:
Navy needs a capable multi purpose ship class for light patrol / flotilla escort duties prioritizing comfort of the crew, endurance, large hangar area for multi-purpose operations
Answer should be Offshore Patrol Vessels since they are chosen by Navy.

According to Dear @Anmdt our Navy likes larger and bigger ships rather than they are supposed to be.


I would like to really know what is the disadvantages our Istif Class over Korean Hanwha Ocean 40 frigate which won the Thai Navy's bid. Korean ship weights 4000ton. It could be the reason?

BTW the ship has 2 x Mistral addition to VLS.
