Global naval warfare exhibits a paradigm shift, due to increasing trend towards the decentralization of naval attacks.  Thus, competences are distributed around smaller vessels in addition to larger platforms like aircraft carriers and destroyers to make them more secure against an enemy attack. This has inspired governments around the world to spend on smaller surface combatant which are capable of operating in littoral waters, and advanced weapons and communication systems to enable these ships to perform multiple missions. Moreover, providing humanitarian relief, emergency medical aid, and combating smuggling, piracy, and act of terrorism, has resulted in the continuous evolution of the role of naval vessels and surface combatants. The changing trend of naval vessels and surface combatants has motivated manufacturers to develop more vessels with strategic sea-lift and amphibious operations capabilities, which led to number of vessels allowing to serve more than one role.
