During the Great Patriotic War, the territories of Central Asia and the Kirghiz SSR became a bastion of industrial support for the country. The mass evacuation of enterprises from the western regions allowed for the creation of new production capacities that supplied the front with ammunition, food, uniforms, and metal. Facing a shortage of qualified personnel, equipment, and raw materials, the local population demonstrated true labor heroism, managing to adapt to the new conditions. This work examines in detail the key industries, individual enterprises, organizational decisions, and the characteristics of the home front operation, highlighting their contribution to the overall victory.
