1. About 10 July 1954 the munitions plant at Margineanu, near Ploesti, began
producing small caliber artillery weapons. The daily production around the
middle of July 1954 was 700 to 750 weapons. For lack of raw materials there
are often interruptions in production.
2. Future plans call for the production of guns of 122 mm, 152 mm, and 203 mm
calibers
25X1.
