Well...you could probably come up with a common mission. I think the tricky bit is figuring out what job needs a bulk transport and a science ship at the same time. The fighter is easily tacked on by adding "in lawless space" onto whatever you come up with.

Maybe some sort of prospecting...or slash and burn tomb-raiding astro-archaeology. Though you'd need a lot of labor to fill an SM+10 hauler with loot...

If you just pull random ship-appropriate jobs, yeah, all three ships will part ways in minutes and never meet again.
