Aldis Industries was a military hardware manufacturing company headquartered on Terra.

Overview[edit]

At the fall of the Star League, Aldis Industries was a comparatively small firm. Since then it had become one of the largest manufacturers of heavy tanks in the Inner Sphere. It also owned some 'Mech production lines in Liverpool, and Tokyo was home to its aerospace production lines.[1] By 3025, Aldis Industries was the Inner Sphere's largest independent weapons producer and their headquarters on Terra benefited from the protection conferred through ComStar's neutrality.

Jihad[edit]

During the Jihad, Aldis' Betelgeuse factory lost 18% of its capital and personnel, but by 3079 it had again reached 100% of its full production volume.[3] Furthermore, the home office on Terra always granted its subsidiary firms a great deal of leeway, allowing the Betelgeuse factory to become one of the largest suppliers of weapons for the Capellan Confederation's Home Guard units. The heavy tanks it produced could be found all across the Confederation.[2]

Manufacturing[edit]

Aldis Industries has manufacturing centers on the following planets:
