74 times might apply to some commodity, like oil.  But overall it probably was way too passemestic.   In terms of actual munition and armament production it was probably more like 10 - 15 times

The most conservative estimate after the one I mentioned was twenty-four times. These are Japanese estimates, not mine.

Military aircraft: 324,000 to 64,484, roughly 5:1
Carriers: 124 to 18, roughly 7:1
Battleships: 10 to 2, 5:1
Cruisers: 48 to 9, roughly 5:1
Destroyers: 349 to 63, roughly 5:1
Tanks: 108,000 to 4,500, roughly 20:1
Cargo ship tonnage: 34,000,000 to 4,150,000, roughly 8:1
Iron ore:  396,000,000 to 21,000,000, roughly 18:1
Crude oil:  833,000,000 to 5,100,000, roughly 160:1
