Notes
  • Significance: The Mesta 50,000-Ton Forging Press represents the culmination of many years' attempts to build heavy presses. Motivated by Cold War fears and the demand for new aircraft brought on by the Korean War, the Industrial Resources Division and Air Material Command of the United States Air Force instituted a "Heavy Press Program" during the early 1950's. The program aimed to create presses large enough to make complex castings needed for new aircraft designs.
