>How about an automated factory ship? It not only transports goods, it makes them, and delivers them to the place where they are most needed. Automated ships around the world could then do resupply. Sounds crazy, but this has sort of been proposed with seasteading. Taking boats or building in international waters so they don't have to deal with local regulations. For example there was a boat off the coast of California where immigrants could go to work until they could get into the US legally. Or boats that perform abortions outside of places where they are illegal. It's not so much of a stretch that this could be done for manufacturing.
