Cal-Boeing of Dorwinion is a minor aircraft manufacturer located in the Federated Suns.
Overview
Formed in 2899 by a group of Federated-Boeing engineers and designers who disagreed with the companies direction, the parting of both groups was amiable, with Federated-Boeing even donating long-empty warehouses on Belladonna to the fledgling start-up which repaid their parent company once they became successful. Cal-Boeing's first design, the Ferret, rolled off the production line in 2901, securing a AFFS for six thousand of the scout VTOL.
Riding the wave of continued high-interest in their iconic VTOL, the company was unprepared for the failure of the combat version of the Ferret called the Wild Weasel in 2967. So stung, Cal-Boeing did not attempt to develop another until the Marten in 3021.[1]
