Free Worlds Defense Industries is one of the leading military equipment manufacturers in the Free Worlds League.
Contents
History
FWDI was formed in October 2562 by the merger of Andurien AeroTech and Gibson Federated BattleMechs, with the Andurien based aerospace company seeking new investment opportunities while the Gibson based BattleMech manufacturer needed to resolve cash flow problems from over extension. Like many manufacturers they had both suffered and benefited from the near constant warfare of the Succession Wars. FWDI's R&D facilities and coffers received a large boost when the ComStar splinter group the Word of Blake sought sanctuary on Gibson, with their factories on that planet befitting from large production orders and Blakist funded upgrades to produce designs using lostech and eventually OmniMechs. However the arrangement backfired once the Blakist's launched their Jihad and claimed Gibson, drawing increasing raids aimed at knocking the factories out. [1]
Leadership
In the 3025 the companies CEO is A. Liam McNeil.[1]
Gibson Federated BattleMechs
Gibson Federated BattleMechs is the subsidiary of Free Worlds Defense Industries responsible for most of the ground unit production.
Overview
Based on Gibson, it was taken over by the Word of Blake forces on that world and used as one of their primary military suppliers.[2] Funding from the Word allowed Gibson Federated to expand production, opening plants on Terra and Mars.[3] Gibson also formed Sekkaris Mekwerks in 3063 to create prototype designs equipped with weapons the Word had acquired from the Clans and other sources. The Celestial series OmniMechs were designed by Sekkaris, particularly their lead designer Dr. Devon Cortland.[4]
Leadership
In 3025 the companies Division Head is Samual Humphreys.[1]

Sekkaris Mekwerks
A division of Gibson Federated BattleMechs, Sekkaris Mekwerks is the birthplace of the Blakist's fearsome Celestial series OmniMechs.
Overview
Formed in 3063 as a separate division of Gibson Federated, based on the planet Mars in the Terran system Sekkaris Mekwerks was tasked with developing new designs and equipment based on advanced Clan and Inner Sphere technologies captured by the Word of Blake. Quickly becoming the sole preserve of chief researcher Devon Cortland, Cortland's efforts to integrated new structural components with OmniPod technology led to the development of the Celestial series. [28]
While Gibson Federated's Terran and Gibson production lines far and away produce the bulk of the Blakist's new OmniMechs, Sekkaris continues to produce specialized custom-made Celestials for the Manei Domini's VDNI equipped commanders and elite units such as the Opacus Venatori. [28] [29]
Manufacturing
Sekkaris Mekwerks has an manufacturing center on the following planet.
