Prompt:
You are an operations research expert analyzing the results from three different optimization solvers. Based on the original mathematical formulation and solver execution results, provide a comprehensive analysis and final recommendation.

ORIGINAL MATHEMATICAL FORMULATION:
## 4. Mathematical Optimization Formulation

#### Decision Variables
- \( x_{ij} \): Binary decision variable indicating whether ship \( i \) is assigned to mission \( j \).  
  - \( x_{ij} = 1 \) if ship \( i \) is assigned to mission \( j \), otherwise \( x_{ij} = 0 \).

#### Objective Function
Minimize the total operational cost:  
\[
\text{Minimize} \quad \sum_{i} \sum_{j} \left( c_{\text{tonnage}} \cdot \text{tonnage}_i + c_{\text{speed}} \cdot \text{speed}_i \right) \cdot x_{ij}
\]  
Where:  
- \( c_{\text{tonnage}} \): Cost coefficient for tonnage (assume \( c_{\text{tonnage}} = 1 \) for simplicity).  
- \( c_{\text{speed}} \): Cost coefficient for speed (assume \( c_{\text{speed}} = 1 \) for simplicity).  
- \( \text{tonnage}_i \): Tonnage of ship \( i \) (from `ships.tonnage`).  
- \( \text{speed}_i \): Speed of ship \( i \) (from `ships.speed_knots`).

#### Constraints
1. **Mission Assignment Constraint**: Each mission must be assigned to exactly one ship.  
\[
\sum_{i} x_{ij} = 1 \quad \forall j
\]

2. **Ship Assignment Constraint**: Each ship can be assigned to at most one mission.  
\[
\sum_{j} x_{ij} \leq 1 \quad \forall i
\]

3. **Tonnage Requirement Constraint**: The tonnage of the ship assigned to a mission must meet or exceed the minimum tonnage required by the mission.  
\[
\text{tonnage}_i \cdot x_{ij} \geq \text{min_tonnage}_j \cdot x_{ij} \quad \forall i, j
\]

4. **Speed Requirement Constraint**: The speed of the ship assigned to a mission must meet or exceed the minimum speed required by the mission.  
\[
\text{speed}_i \cdot x_{ij} \geq \text{min_speed}_j \cdot x_{ij} \quad \forall i, j
\]

5. **Nationality Requirement Constraint**: The nationality of the ship assigned to a mission must match the required nationality specified by the mission.  
\[
\text{nationality}_i \cdot x_{ij} = \text{required_nationality}_j \cdot x_{ij} \quad \forall i, j
\]

#### Data Source Verification
- \( \text{tonnage}_i \): `ships.tonnage`  
- \( \text{speed}_i \): `ships.speed_knots`  
- \( \text{min_tonnage}_j \): `missions.min_tonnage`  
- \( \text{min_speed}_j \): `missions.min_speed`  
- \( \text{nationality}_i \): `ships.nationality`  
- \( \text{required_nationality}_j \): `missions.required_nationality`  

This formulation provides a complete, immediately solvable LINEAR mathematical model with all numerical coefficients derived from the provided data.
