The '''Mobile Vehicle Bay''' is a [[Deployables|deployable]] item that allows the [[Ryley Robinson|player]] to construct [[vehicles]]. It can be crafted by using the [[Fabricator (Subnautica)|Fabricator]]. It takes up nine inventory slots while in the player's inventory.

The player must scan three [[Fragments (Subnautica)|Fragments]] to obtain the [[Blueprints (Subnautica)|Blueprints]] for the Mobile Vehicle Bay. These can commonly be found in [[Wrecks]], or in crates scattered around the [[Kelp Forest]].

When released by the player, it will float to the surface and unfold itself. It can then be boarded. Using the interface, the player can construct a [[Seamoth]], [[Cyclops]], or [[Prawn Suit (Subnautica)|Prawn Suit]] if they have the required materials and blueprints.

The base of the Mobile Vehicle Bay houses four fabrication drones that will activate themselves and float above the Mobile Vehicle Bay when the player approaches. When the player selects a vehicle to construct, the fabrication drones will swarm out in front of the Mobile Vehicle Bay to build the vehicle in the time it requires, showing its progress in the same fashion as using the [[Habitat Builder (Subnautica)|Habitat Builder]], although a large difference between the two is that you can place blueprints with the Habitat Builder even if you don't have the required resources.

The player can pick up the Mobile Vehicle Bay by looking at the metal platform and pressing the correct key.

It is currently possible to deploy and trap the Mobile Vehicle Bay under a [[Moonpool (Subnautica)|Moonpool]], allowing vehicles to be constructed at any depth.

{{Spoilersection|The Mobile Vehicle Bay can also be used to construct the [[Neptune Escape Rocket#Neptune Launch Platform|Neptune Launch Platform]] if the player has the required blueprint.}}
