'''Asuncion Industries''' produces small spacecraft and personal vacuum environment survival equipment.
 
  
==Overview==
+
'''Asuncion Industries''' was founded on [[Asuncion]], a colony world of the [[Sian Supremacy]] before it joined [[Capellan Confederation]], initially geared towards supplying basic materials and parts in the construction of interstellar craft.<ref name=HL>''House Liao (The Capellan Confederation)'', p. 119, "Asuncion Industries"</ref> In the wake of the [[Reunification War]], Asuncion Industries was tapped by [[Chancellor]] [[Normann Aris]] to build the ''[[Stork]]'' Light Refueling Craft as part of an effort to shore up the Confederation's defenses without taxing its weakened economy.<ref name=TRO:3075p240>''Technical Readout: 3075'', p. 240, "Stork"</ref>  However, when the [[Succession Wars]] began, Asuncion was conquered by the [[Free Worlds League]], forcing the company to relocate its headquarters to [[Wei]].  Despite these losses, the company remained profitable, and branched out into related areas such as life-support systems.<ref name=HL/>

When the [[Fourth Succession War]] hit, the company could not escape when the [[Federated Commonwealth]] conquered Wei, though it (and its employees) proved amenable to the political and economic freedoms of the FedCom state.  The transition back into the more tightly-controlled Capellan economy after [[Operation Guerrero]] recaptured Wei was far less pleasant, though CEO Adam Nakoma managed to convince the Capellan government to allow his company to continue serving foreign clients.  In the years since, Asuncion Industries branched out into the personal vacuum equipment market, building its [[Asuncion Escape Suit]]s on Wei with plans to open a second line on [[Necromo]].<ref name=HHL/>

During the [[Jihad]] Asuncion established a factory at Gerriado on the Borah continent of [[Sarna]], producing [[RetroTech]] equipment in support of the desperate [[CCAF]] need for any kind of military equipment. By [[3079]], the plant had been operating for five years, and with the CCAF beginning to focus once more on quality equipment Asuncion was reviewing the profitability of the facility.<ref name="O:CCp12">''Objectives: Capellan Confederation'', p. 12: "Sarna"</ref>
