Munitions production facilities
Weapons factories are facilities where arms and military equipment are manufactured.
The term encompasses plants producing everything from small arms to missiles, tanks, and aircraft.
In wartime contexts, weapons factories become strategic targets: The bombing campaign aimed to destroy the enemy's weapons factories.
