==Overview==

==Description==
Lushann Industrials Limited has become the primary regional manufacturer of [[laser]]s, with a customer base that extends past the Outworlds Alliance, into the [[Federated Suns]]. This growth is in large part due to the influence of [[President of the Executive Parliment|President]] [[Mitchell Avellar]], who negotiated an extensive investment partnership with the [[Draconis Combine]]. This has led to an agreement with [[Diverse Optics Incorporated]] which allows LIL-licensed production of the [[Diverse Optics Sunbeam|Sunbeam ER large laser]], some of DOI's pulse lasers (including the Magna series) and the [[Flamer#Zippo|Zippo]] plasma-based flamers.<ref name=M&M>''Masters and Minions: The StarCorps Dossiers'', p. 163: "Lushann Industrials Limited"</ref>

All of Lushann Industrials' facilities on Lushann are located below ground, which may have played a part in the lack of interest shown by attacking [[Word of Blake]] forces during the [[Jihad]]. There was considerable concern that the Federated Suns markets may not support future purchases of LIL products, due to the uncertainty of the era. As such, the company has ceased production (but not mothballed) on many of its lines.<ref name=M&M/>

By [[3067]], Chief Executive Officer [[Grania Llewellyn]] changed the company's name to Lushann Industries Limited, as a reflection of the opportunities anticipated with the Outworlds Alliance's "[[Long Road]]" program. The company's technology exchanges with Taurian companies led to advancements in laser weaponry manufacturing capabilities. The increased markets for these newer products led to their trade for [[BattleMechs]] with [[Robinson Standard BattleWorks]].<ref name=H:MPSp143/><ref name=FMU>''Field Manual: Updates'', p. 196: "The Long Road"</ref><ref name=TRO50U>''Technical Readout: 3050 Upgrade'', p. 212: "Variants"</ref>

Other technological developments had occurred in concert with [[Clan Snow Raven]], such as the [[Breaching device]], a framework of armor-penetrating explosives intended to allow for easier deep-space boardings by marines or rescue personnel.<ref name=HMPS184/> In [[3068]], a field upgrade kit for the ''[[Merlin (BattleMech)|Merlin]]'' was another result, allowing the MLN-1C to sport [[extended range medium laser]]s.<ref name=TRO58U>''Technical Readout: 3058 Upgrade'', p. 142: "Variants"</ref> Similarly, by [[3075]], the collaborative effort resulted in the upgraded [[Hellcat (Aerospace Fighter class)|HCT-313 ''Hellcat'']].<ref name=TRO75/>
