Energetic materials are the explosives and fuels behind munitions production

The proposed factories address materials that rapidly release energy in explosives and propellants.

Notes

The plan uses energetics to describe materials such as explosives and fuels that rapidly release large amounts of energy. Its factory proposal concerns production of those materials within Britain. The examples include RDX, TNT, nitrocellulose, and nitroglycerine. Their manufacture is a supply requirement beneath the headline numbers of finished missiles and ammunition.
