The War Factory is yet another important structure for the Soviets, responsible for producing Soviet vehicles.

Official description[]

Perhaps one of the most vital buildings for the Soviets. The War Factory allows the construction of a myriad of armored vehicles on the battlefield, which the Soviets use to steamroll their opponents. The more War Factories a commander has on the field, the faster vehicles are built.

The Soviet War Factory additionally provides access to the Soviet Repair Drone drop, and with an Industrial Plant available it can even deploy two of them at once.[1]

AI behavior[]

The AI will build a second War Factory if they have built a Tier 3 Soviet laboratory. If the AI is playing as Russia, they will build a deployed Stalin's Fist instead.

If Mental AI Boost is enabled, the AI will build a certain amount of War Factories that do not require a Tier 3 Soviet laboratory, depending on the difficulty (1 max for Easy, 2 max for Normal, 3 max for Hard). Combined with the War Factory that requires a Tier 3 Soviet laboratory or Stalin's Fist, a Hard AI with Mental AI Boost can own up to 4 War Factories.
