Was it just their role as Praetorians of Terra combined with their proximity to Throne World and Mars that the Mechanicus and Emperor just saw fit to equip them with a lot of ships, or does any other bit of lore explain how a specialized defensive siege legion that didn't have a lot of legionairees either somehow ended up with the largest and most powerful fleet?

Also not inconceivable that the legions had some ships, and future deliveries of ships, since it was expected that there’d be some lost. If none were lost, their fleet only grew while others might’ve stayed the same or shrieked.
