Navy Wants Aircraft Carriers to Manufacture Weapons On the Go

Navy Wants Aircraft Carriers to Manufacture Weapons On the Go: "According to one Lieutenant Commander Michael Llenza, the Navy's future lies in converting aircraft carriers into “floating factories,” each carrying a fleet of 3D printers to churn out weapons, drones, and even shelters at a moment’s notice. There’s money and time to be saved in the sheer logistical rationality of the scheme.

Rectangular packages of powder, which could be printed into bullets when needed, are a far more efficient use of space."
