Minor, Medium, Major Factory (Grey

Industrial production became fundamental to the mass armies and navies of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Arms factories depended on machine tools, skilled labor, raw materials, transport, and reliable energy supplies. During the world wars governments expanded facilities, coordinated production, and sometimes dispersed or moved plants to reduce vulnerability. Concrete, steel, brick, and machinery all contributed to factory construction, while the surrounding transport and power networks determined what a plant could sustain. German rearmament expanded military investment during the 1930s. Wartime factories drew on occupied Europe and coerced labor, while bombing and shortages increasingly disrupted the relationship between manufacturing capacity and actual deliveries.
