DESCRIPTION
The Prime Assembler is the latest in a series of new ships introduced into the House Mecetti fleet as part of Lady Mecetti's Fleet Modernization program. It is an innovation on the Field-Secured Container Vessel typically used to transport vast quantities of supplies as part of major logistics chains. This variant has been equipped with on-board smelters, factories, and droids to assist with every type of design or construction project. When not constructing anything, the vessel can be collapsed to its reduced 2 kilometer form. When construction is anticipated, it can be expanded to 5 kilometers in length.

The ship's first construction bubble is often filled with ore, which is then smelted into usable materials and then forged into parts for distribution to the further three construction bubbles. Droids with thruster units pass freely between the various bubbles using connecting corridors, obviating the need for construction vehicles within the vessel. Gravity is simply adjusted to near zero, and the droids carry or manipulate whatever is required to complete their projects. The Prime Assembler often carries a quantity of mining ships which allow the factory ship to enter a system, strip its asteroid fields for materiel, and load the ship with the ore needed to conduct its operations. For projects larger than 750 meters in length, the project can be split into multiple parts which are then tractored into position and bolted and welded together in space. In this manner, the factory ship can even assemble additional factory ships. House Mecetti's transition to mobile manufacturing facilties may be a response to the threat of the Dark Empire, allowing the Tapani noble House to manufacture anything anywhere, or even in a variety of places, obviating the risk of losing the Obulette shipyard to enemy action by providing redundant facilities.

The ship is entirely unarmed to allow it to operate even in the most restrictive high-security space. It relies on its embarked craft and (hopefully) a military escort to protect it when it operates in less secure regions.
