Summary	Object and purpose of research. The methodological approach to conceptual design of warships elaborated by the Krylov State Research Centre based on the using of system analysis tools and methods. Subject matter and methods. The conceptual design of aircraft carrier is taken as a case in point to illustrate the methodological approach to shaping up the design of a sophisticated engineering system. Main results. Practical implementations of the methodological approach to aircraft carrier, destroyer and general-purpose landing ship conceptual designs are described. Conclusion. Elaboration of conceptual design by expert R&D organizations using the proposed methodological ap- proach should help to avoid fundamental mistakes in shaping the technical concepts of future ships and mitigate the risks of running into excessive and unjustified expenses on design alterations and retrofits of shipboard equipment and weaponry during ship construction, trials and commissioning, and to ensure the high quality of combat performance and engineering solutions envisaged in projects.
