The second-largest BattleMech manufacturer in the Lyran Commonwealth/Lyran Alliance, Coventry Metal Works is one of the leading 'Mech manufacturers in the Inner Sphere.
Overview
In the same class as Defiance Industries, Coventry Metal Works is more than a major 'Mech producer. Coventry is also known for its superior missile systems, which are fitted on vehicles produced by many other Alliance firms.[1]
Unlike Defiance Industries which focuses primarily on the heavy and assault designs much loved by the LCAF hierarchy, Coventry has generally produced lighter and medium designs.
One area that Coventry is ahead of Defiance is in the production of OmniMechs. Stemming from a seemly dubious offer of a manufacturing license to the niche Firestarter to Luthien Armor Works during the Clan Invasion, Coventry received the Omni-fied version in return. Using this as a basis, Coventry has signed agreements to produce other Draconis Combine OmniMech designs as well utilizing their experience in building them to produce the first homegrown Lyran OmniMech, the Hauptmann.
In early 3068 Coventry's production lines were overrun by the Word of Blake. The Blakists used these captured production lines to outfit their troops, halting all sales to the Lyran government. The equipment the Word confiscated was never paid for, and CMW burned through their available financial reserves to keep the company afloat. Not satisfied with this result, the Blakists inflicted serious damage on the construction facilities when they withdrew from Coventry, leading CMW to spend more money to make repairs. This massive debt has left CMW in a very tenuous position financially. As of 3077, executives are considering shutting down production of less popular 'Mechs to focus on more popular models.[2]
Manufacturing
Coventry Metal Works has manufacturing centers on the following planets:
Coventry
Note: The Ymir production line was discontinued in 2648.[3]
