The industrial developmt of Austrsia has always be smooth, especially under the dual aid of Germany and the United Kingdom, the construction of industry has always be on the rise.


    Up to now, Australia''s annual total steel output has reached slightly over 3. million tons, of which the annual output of iron is .797 million tons, and the annual output of steel is .34 million tons.


    Although the number of steel output looks a lot, it currtly just slightly surpasses the level of thest of the great powers, Italy, and is less than half of that of Russia and France in the same period, and slightly more than one-fifth of that of Britain.


    Ev though it has surpassed a traditional European power like Italy, Arthur still doesn''t feel the least bit joyful.


    Although Italy is said to be one of the European powers, it only sounds impressive. Its actual status is definitely at the bottom of the European powers - it''s perhaps only slightly better than the currt ind nation.


    Moreover, it is only the steel output that has surpassed Italy, and there is indeed nothing to be happy about. To truly equal or surpass European powers, Austrsia still has a long way to go. Perhaps, it will only be relying on the two wars to take a shortcut.


    The good news is that the various industrial constructions in Austrsia are approaching perfection. In addition to the top-ranking steel industry, various chemical industries, civil industries, machinery factories, ss factories, fertilizer factories, cemt factories, etc., are all in a flourishing state.


    Particrly the James Machinery Factory funded by the royal financial group, it has now developed into thergest in Victoria State and the secondrgest in Austrsia, bing a leader among many private terprises.


    As for thergest machinery factory, it is naturally the Royal Machinery Factory, which is controlled itself by the royal financial group. The Royal Machinery Factory has orders from car factories, gine factories, various military factories, and other various factories. The annual production of machinery equipmt upies 60% of the Austrsia market, and it has more than 0,000 workers.


    All factories and terprises under the royal financial group have more than 400,000 employees, who are spread across from various industries and fields in Austrsia and is an absolutely giant in Austrsian businesses.


    The taxes the royal financial group pays to the governmt each year amount to ts of millions of Australian dors, and its own profit has exceeded 50 million Australian dors.


    However, the people of Austrsia wee the various terprises owned by the royal financial group, which not only provides them with jobs but also; any factory or business belonging to the royal financial group offers the best befits and policies in Austrsia.


    This is why wh Austrsians are looking for jobs, the royal financial group''s businesses and factories are their first choice.


    There is a piece of very good news, after nearly two years of construction, the initial construction of the Leonora Industrial Base is officiallyplete.


    The Ministry of Industry is currtly discussing the specific list ofpanies to settle in the Linnora Industrial Zone, and thesepanies are undoubtedly the giants of various industries in Austrsia.


    Since the construction purpose of the Leonora Industrial Base is to create arge integrated industrial cluster, this terprise invitation will definitely take into ount more types and fields of industries.


    For example, the chemical industry, the agricultural industry, the machinery factories, etc., that the governmt has vigorously developed in the past, will be the main target of this industrial base invitation.


    To demonstrate the emphasis on the industrial base, after discussing with the governmt, Arthur decided to divide the tire Leonora Industrial Base into a city-level direct-administrated area, directly under the managemt of the Ministry of Industry.


    The person in charge of the Leonora Industrial Base, the rank is directly equivalt to the rank of the mayor of a provincial capital city in Austrsia.


    The person in charge of the Industrial Base is appointed by the Ministry of Industry, with a term of four years.


    This also represts Arthur''s stance. Except for the Cab Governmt, no one has the right to interve in the Leonora Industrial Base.


    Starting from January 9, the preliminarilypleted Leonora Industrial Base officially began to invitepanies to settle in.


    The initial goal is to invite thirtyrge terprises and hundreds of small terprises, and t superrge storage areas have be prepared for thesepanies.


    As early as the start of the industrial zone''s construction, the railway and highway connecting the industrial zone had begun construction, and it had bepleted ev before thepletion of the industrial zone.


    The currt Leonora Industrial Base not only connects with Austrsia''s industrial railway, but also connects with the strategic highwaywork, which can quickly reach both the east and west coasts of Australia.


    A conservative estimate is, ev if only the first phase of the Leonora Industrial Base is constructed, it will be able to create more than 50,000 jobs and produce at least 0 million Australian dors in annual output value for Austrsia.


    Allpanies within the industrial zone are conservatively estimated to create tax revue of millions of Australian dors for the governmt annually. If developmt is slightly better, making two to three million will not be too difficult.


    And if the tire industrial base ispleted? Create 00,000 jobs? Gerate annual production value of 0 million Australian dors? Create annual tax revue of  million Australian dors?


    Although these numbers are somewhat unimaginable, many people in the Cab Governmt have a vague feeling that they can be achieved and they ev support the construction of the Leonora industrial base more.


    Of course, regardless of the attitudes of others, Arthur attaches great importance to the Leonora industrial base and ev instructed Minister of Industry Pierre to inspect the industrial base oft unless he is really busy. He must sure that the construction of the industrial base ispleted with quality and on schedule.


    Pierre, being the Minister of Industry, took Arthur''s instructions seriously. He visits the Leonora industrial base approximately every half a month, for fear that any unexpected evts in the construction of the industrial base would cause him to dure Arthur''s anger.


    For Industry Secretary Pierre, who has already sat at the Industry Secretary position for three terms, if he wants to continue to stay in the Cab Governmt, he can only advance further in a Cab Minister position.


    However, cab ministers like Minister Pierre Peile are not few in number, and there''s ev fiercerpetition for further cab positions, with two of them having already served as prime ministers. The pressure cannot be understated.


    If they could win Arthur''s favor and support, it would be a decisive help for their further advancemt.


    Of course, Arthur knew nothing of all this, and ev if he did, he wouldn''t care.


    For Arthur, it was just a word that could allow anyone to rise to power, but why would he say that word?n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om


    At this momt, Arthur had arrived at the Aerospace Laboratory, with all his atttion on the new aircraft in theboratory.


    After over four years of effort, the aerospaceb''s military aircraft had sessfully advanced to the third geration, with huge improvemts in performance over the second geration nes.


    Wh ites to the manufacturing and technology of currt nes and military aircraft, Austrsia is unquestionably the world leader, ev far outperforming the second in the world.


    If it''s said that the second-geration military nes could barely be used inbat, barely reaching the level of World War I, th the third geration military nes have not only achieved but ev surpassed the level of military nes during thete stages of World War I, and ev if Austrsia were to stop developing nes now, it would probably take other countries five to six years to catch up.


    But would they stop developing nes? Absolutely not.


    Arthur''s focus on the developmt of aircraft is increasing, with funding for the aerospaceboratory also steadily rising.


    However, the Aerospace Laboratory is Arthur''s private property, so it doesn''t eat into governmt funds, and is instead financed and controlled by the Royal financial group.


    The aerospaceboratory costs Arthur at least half a million Australian dors each year, so naturally, the nes researched and produced at such great expse overperform the ones privately researched in other countries by the same era by a great margin.


    Not to exaggerate, but Austrsia has already lured at least two-fifths of global aviation talt and this proportion is still growing steadily.


    If other countries want to overtake Austrsia in aviation and aircraft manufacturing, they would have to take control of all the remaining three-fifths of the aviation talt and they would also have to spd a great amount of resources, possibly within several years.


    Would that be realistic? The remaining three-fifths of aviation talt are distributed across Europe and the United States and are more or less valued by local governmts and ev some countries.


    In addition, amongst these talts are also many patriots which ev Austrsia can''t attract despite offering muchpsation, and Arthur doesn''t believe that any country could control all the remaining talt.


    Moving on to the currt third-geration military aircraft.


    First is the Eagle-3 Reconnaissance Aircraft, which is currtly the fastest and longest-range aircraft in Austrsia''s arsal.


    Like the second-geration aircraft, the Eagle-3 reconnaissance aircraft still adopts the design approach of having two seats, one in the front and one in the back, butpared to the previous geration of reconnaissance aircraft, its size is somewhat reduced.


    Of course, factoring in the additional two auxiliary fuel tanks, the size of the Eagle-3 reconnaissance aircraft is evrger than the previous geration''s.


    The maximum range of the Eagle-3 reconnaissance aircraft, without the auxiliary fuel tanks, is 700 kilometers, and with two auxiliary fuel tanks, the maximum range can ev reach ,0 kilometers.


    That''s not all, the Eagle-3 reconnaissance aircraft employs a aircraft gine specially developed by Disel for it, which allows it to fly at an average speed of 5 kilometers per hour, with a maximum speed of 40 kilometers per hour.


    The average flight speed of the Eagle-3 reconnaissance aircraft alone surpasses the maximum flying speed of the previous geration''s reconnaissance aircraft, demonstrating how significantly the performance of the gine has improved.


    Of course, in order to amodate speed and range, the weapons equipped on the reconnaissance aircraft are rtively simple, only a MA-7 Maxim machine gun.


    But giv the terrifying flight speed and range of the Eagle-3 reconnaissance aircraft, ev wh countering reconnaissance aircraft or fighter aircraft of other countries, it would have no issues fleeing if it couldn''t win the fight.


    Looking at this brand new Eagle-3 reconnaissance aircraft, Arthur couldn''t help but wonder whether the most advanced military aircraft of other countries would be able to beat this reconnaissance aircraft of Austrsia, which is merely used for intelligce reconnaissance.


    Ev if it''s only equipped with a single heavy machine gun, this is still one of thetest products researched and developed by Arthur''s Arms Factory after more than t years, since thest heavy machine gun, and its performance is undoubtedly top-tier among heavy machine guns.


    In the original history, most of the military aircraft in World War I were only equipped with heavy machine guns or other weapons. The weapon systems were rather crude and far from being as advanced or powerful as the nes of World War II.


    Thinking about the pottial future of Austrsia''s reconnaissance aircraft massacring other countries'' fighter jets and bombers, Arthur couldn''t help but think of it amusing, but he ultimately withheld hisughter.


    Because showing inappropriate behavior before arge crowd could hurt the dignity of the king.


    Anyway, a sce like this would only be a good thing for Austrsia. So wh it happs, just let those countries be surprised!
