'''Bulldog Enterprises''' was a weapons manufacturer in the [[Draconis Combine]] that specialized in producing [[combat vehicle]]s.<ref name=HB:HKp158/>
 +
 +
==Overview==
 +
Control of Bulldog Enterprises was acquired by [[Buda Imperial Vehicles]] in early [[3067]]. Buda's CEO [[Piram Germane]] opted to leave Bulldog relatively intact, merging only the two corporate distribution networks, with Buda gaining the benefits of Bulldog's robust R&D division while Bulldog benefited from Buda's superior corporate ratings within both the [[DCMS]] [[Bureau of Procurement]] and the Combine [[Ministry of the Interior]].<ref name=HB:HKp158/>
 +
 +
The Proserpina factory was noteworthy for its extensive static defenses. There were at least fifty weapon turrets within a kilometer of the main plant. Closer to the plant were multiple anti-aircraft missile batteries. To further impede invaders, the main approaches to the plant were lined with deadfall traps and anti-tank roadblocks.<ref name=O:DCp43>''Objectives: Draconis Combine'', p. 43: "Static Defenses"</ref>

Buda's CEO Piram Germane opted to leave Bulldog relatively intact, merging only the two corporate distribution networks, with Buda gaining the benefits of Bulldog's robust R&D division while Bulldog benefited from Buda's superior corporate ratings within both the DCMS Bureau of Procurement and the Combine Ministry of the Interior.[2]

The Proserpina factory was noteworthy for its extensive static defenses. There were at least fifty weapon turrets within a kilometer of the main plant. Closer to the plant were multiple anti-aircraft missile batteries. To further impede invaders, the main approaches to the plant were lined with deadfall traps and anti-tank roadblocks.[3]
