In my current US campaign I beat the crap out of Europe and Russia simultaneously, after some victories/advances my DAR surged from it's normal levels of 45-50% to 75+%. Shocking to me, the production page showed that my industries efficiencies were up about 10% across the board. Since then my DAR dwindled in a sort of cold war, and efficiencies were back to what they were before. After managing to get my DAR up to 55% or so my production efficiencies rose about 2% across the board again.
Actually, I first noticed this effect in my Europe campaign when I started nuking Britain with all the MIRV's I could make, productions went from 10-20% surplus capacities to 20% underproduction when DAR went from ~40% to 1%.

So, is there a clear link between DAR and production efficiencies? OR does this only apply in democracy governments? Does this still work under communist governments in the game or do they use MAR instead?


EDIT:

Whoops, should be int he production department.

Yes, higher DAR increases production efficiencies but who knows how much?
