Roe Weapon Systems was an aerospace manufacturer in the Rim Worlds Republic prior to the destruction of the Republic.


History

Roe Weapon Systems (RWS) was a manufacturer with production facilities scattered across the Rim Worlds Republic, but their primary and largest factory was on the Republic capital world, Apollo.[1] Another significant location for Roe Weapon Systems was the Finmark system, home to the administrative capital of the Finmark Province; RWS operated production facilities on Finmark itself that were used to help expand the training facilities available at the Finmark Air and Space Academy, located above the surface of Finmark. RWS also had drydock facilities in the Finmark system that served as both the primary factories and service sections for the Rim Worlds Republic Navy fleets of Bonaventure and Pinto-class corvettes.[2]

During the Amaris Civil War the Rim Worlds Republic was invaded by the SLDF and Roe Weapon Systems was destroyed.[1] The primary factory on Apollo was discontinued in 2767 and production of the Vulcan Aerospace Fighter stopped.[1]
