Penerapan Satellite Communication (SATCOM) pada pesawat berbadan kecil masih terbatas, termasuk pada armada Politeknik Penerbangan Indonesia Curug. Kondisi tersebut mendorong perancangan housing pelindung untuk antena microstrip penerima SATCOM yang tetap memenuhi kebutuhan perlindungan, aerodinamika, struktur, dan transparansi elektromagnetik. Penelitian ini bertujuan menentukan lokasi pemasangan yang optimal, merancang housing antena model dome, serta menguji kelayakan desain dari aspek aerodinamika. Metode yang digunakan adalah Research and Development (R&D), dengan penentuan lokasi melalui triangulasi studi literatur, observasi, dan wawancara ahli, sedangkan proses desain menggunakan VDI 2221 dan evaluasi aerodinamika menggunakan Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) pada ANSYS Fluent. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa upper fuselage merupakan lokasi yang paling sesuai. Dua desain housing dikembangkan, yaitu Tipe 1 Flat Top dan Tipe 2 Cambered, dengan material komposit dan ketebalan 5 mm. Tipe 1 menghasilkan drag coefficient 5,5618 dan drag force 3,4066 N, sedangkan Tipe 2 menghasilkan 6,9336 dan 4,2958 N. Dengan demikian, kedua desain layak secara aerodinamika pada ruang lingkup simulasi, tetapi Tipe 1 lebih direkomendasikan karena menghasilkan hambatan lebih rendah dan wake yang lebih stabil. Penelitian lanjutan disarankan mencakup fabrikasi, pengujian struktur, ground test, dan flight test.
