“During World War II, the United States mass-produced a class of cargo ships
known as “Liberty Ships.” With more than 2,700 of the class built between 1941
and 1945, the Liberty Ship continues to hold the record for the most large
ships ever built on a single design. The low-cost, quickly-produced vessels
quickly proved vital to the war effort, transporting massive amounts of cargo
and personnel across war theaters in the Atlantic and the Pacific. In total,
the Liberty Ships accounted for two-thirds of all US wartime cargo transported
to the various theaters of operation during the conflict.
“In a potential war in the Indo-Pacific, the US military will again need to
move equipment, and work is already underway on a 21st-century Liberty Ship.
Although the role and cargo capacity will be similar, the new version will be a
little different, notably in that it won’t require a large crew—or indeed, any
crew at all.”
