Stefanisti - Prime Minister Horvat has visited the Tesor Military Plant near the Dorakian city of Stefanisti. The head of government brought a delegation of war ministry and state security personel to inspect the new plant and be granted a tour. The Tesor plant specifically had been recently reopened thanks to the government's push towards a modernized and capable military. In the plant, the infamous MiG-29M, a modernized version of the multirole MiG-29 is being produced. The IDAF has already indicated that a modernized MiG-29 would make up the bulk of future Deltarian airpower, being versatile and relatively cheap to produce. The Testor plant could produce at least 100 of these modernized jets in a single year, helping the IDAF in its goal of producing at least 400 of these new jets to replace older models. 

The Prime Minister was welcomed by the plant its chief director, Kalinik Bojević, after which the delegation toured the assembly line and took pictures with one of the jet engines currently being assembled in the plant its hall. The Tesor plant is one of many production plants currently being reopened, with both state owned enterprises and a large variety of private parties joining in on the billions in investments now pouring into defense. Another plant, the Tsargrad Military Production Plant, is also set to open this year, allowing the State Defense Corporation to produce new MiG-31 air superiority fighters, meant to primarily be used for air defense and superiority. The plant wil simultaniously produce radar and weapon systems for the MiG-29M. 

Prime Minister Horvat congratulated all involved in these developments, hailing it as a "great achievement of Deltarian determination." He hopes that congress will approve another package of investments in defense, allowing the IDAF to also ramp up naval production and replace some of the relatively old Deltarian ships currently in service.
