ABSTRACT
But in spite of the size of these commitments, by far the greatest volume of the Company’s output was produced for the Allied navies. Referring again to the Table given in the previous chapter, it will be seen that in 1943 no less than 30.5 per cent of the total sales were to naval organizations, chiefly, of course, to the Admiralty. At this time 65 per cent of the total Works production capacity was devoted to these ends, as also was a similar percentage of the Company’s available design and development resources.
