GPT-5 mini · Answer

Select: shipbuilding; chemical production; aircraft manufacturing; garment manufacturing.

Briefly: WWII and postwar shipyards expanded Florida’s shipbuilding; phosphate/related industries spurred chemical production; the space/military buildup (Cape Canaveral, defense contractors) grew aircraft/aerospace manufacturing; garment/apparel plants expanded as light manufacturing moved south. Iron ore mining and large steel/glass heavy-industry complexes did not become major Florida industries by the 1960s.
