Lüneburg Vehicle Corporation was a Hanseatic League manufacturing facility and organization located on Braunschweig III in the Deep Periphery.[1][2]
Overview[edit]
In 2937, a fully intact and operational BattleMech repair facility long abandoned by the Star League Defense Force was discovered in proximity to the city of Lüneburg. Though its origins remained a mystery, its existence was a blessing to the aging Hanseatic League military desperately in need of repairs.[2] At the turn of the thirty-second century,[1] the need to safeguard the SLDF facility and protect themselves against the Escorpión Imperio on the nation's doorstep became more urgent, and the Council of Merchants authorized the construction of the Lüneburg Vehicle Corporation to produce BattleMechs and combat vehicles. When production issues arose, parts were shipped covertly to the SLDF facility where the automated machinery was able to complete the assembly of new 'Mechs.[2]
The two facilities side-by-side allowed the League to expand their garrison to include heavier units and its success led to the establishment of HDF Manufacturing on Falsterbo and the expansion of the Bordello Military Goods, Inc. factory on Antwerp.[1][2] The importance of the Lüneburg factory also led to the permanent posting of the Regional Defense Force Six along with an aerospace force expanded to a full wing.[3]
