Growing once more into a giant, Federated Arms consumed what remained of the Yorathil Corporation and rebranded itself as Federated Industries, expanding off its Federated Arms and Federated Armor divisions. To these the company added Hurricane Defense Systems in [[2948]] to construct larger scale weaponry and munitions, giving it a virtual monopoly over small armors and infantry systems manufacture in the Federated Suns. The companies purchase of Personal Defense Contractors in [[2993]] was more controversial, officially a provider and trainer of corporate security forces but unofficially specializing in providing elite mercenaries to local nobles and other companies to overthrow planetary governments and engage in hostile takeovers.<ref name=HB:HDp170/>

Hoping to redress its previous failures in [[laser]] and advanced weaponry and cash in on the advances unlocked by the [[New Avalon Institute of Science]], the company formed its newest division Federated-Barrett in [[3043]], an advanced R&D house. The division attracted fame for its development of the infantry scale [[Thunderstroke Gauss Rifle|"Thunderstroke" Gauss Rifle]], [[Grand Mauler Gauss Cannon|"Grand Mauler" Gauss Cannon]], and the [[Magshot Gauss Rifle]], and in [[3059]] the division also took on responsibility for production of all of Federated Industries' advanced light weaponry.<ref name=HB:HDp170/>

Thanks to its highly diversified nature, Federated Industries was not only one of the few FedSuns based military manufacturers to escape the worst ravages of the [[Word of Blake]] [[Jihad]] but was also able to expand, profiting yet again from the increasing needs of the AFFS as the conflict dragged on.<ref name=MM-42>''Masters and Minions: The StarCorps Dossiers'', p. 42: "Federated Industries (FedArl)"</ref> The Hurricane Defense Systems subdivision on [[New Damascus]] was badly damaged during the Jihad, however; the facilities took ninety percent damage, and a similar proportion of the overall production being lost.<ref name=O:FSp4>''Objectives: Federated Suns'', p. 4: "State of the Industry at a Glance (Dec 3079)"</ref>
