Pinard-Dicolais Electronics was a civilian and military electronics manufacturer within the Taurian Concordat.[3]
Overview[edit]
Pinard-Dicolais Electronics was the largest privately owned and operated industry within the Taurian Concordat. It was originally founded in the early 2500s by Fiona Pinard. The Star League seized most of the company's holdings during the Reunification War; after their collapse, Theodore Dicolais rebuilt the company from scratch.[1] By 3025, the company was the most profitable corporation within Taurian space.[3] In late 3067, they were known for their production of sensors and targeting systems for BattleMechs, hovercraft, and AeroSpace Fighters. They were also known as the producer of the most popular poker machine in the Periphery.[1]
Pinard-Dicolais Electronics supplied the nearby Wingman Enterprises Limited, also on Pinard, with a range of electronics components needed in the construction of their Shilone and Slayer aerospace fighters.[4]
