[edit] Overview
Connaught is the primary factory world for Kong Interstellar. The factory complex was severely damaged during the Succession Wars, losing its manufacturing abilities. It soldiered on as a repair and parts fabrication facility. These repair kits kept the company afloat, but were limited to the products Kong produced.[1] Only after the Clan Invasion did Kong begin to rebuild its manufacturing abilities and resume production some of its products.[2] The CEO in 3067 is Ryan Phillipousis.[1]
In 3065 Kong Interstellar opened a new Ostsol production line in Ranelagh (Connought's capital) that specializes in the 7M variant.[1]
[edit] Manufacturing
Kong Interstellar Corporation has manufacturing centers on the following planets:
