Which parts of warship construction can be automated

How much of warship construction could an enclosed yard automate with current technology?

Much structural and modular work could be automated; the extent to which wiring, electrics, and plumbing could follow is uncertain.

An extensive programme of automation could handle much of the heavy structural work in an enclosed shipyard. Large components and modules could be moved, positioned, and joined by automated systems. The Queen Elizabeth-class carriers' ammunition-handling system is offered as an example of sophisticated automated movement. The extent to which wiring, electrical work, and plumbing could also be automated remains uncertain.
