Di Tron Heavy Industries was a major Japan-based corporation. Operating during the Terran Alliance, the Terran Hegemony, and later the Star League, its primary area of interest was construction.

Overview[edit]

Founded in 2203, The company's headquarters were located in Tokyo, Japan on Terra, with regional offices on New Earth, Sirius, and Zebebelgenubi. Despite its origins, the company had a very rocky relationship with the Draconis Combine, stemming from a dispute between the Toshimotos and Kuritas. Who started the disagreement is unknown, but it is believed one had offended the other sometime in the twenty-third century.[1]

Di Tron secured its first WarShip contract with the Terran Alliance, constructing the rugged and durable Dart light cruiser, a class that continued service through nearly 200 years and the waning years of the Star League.[3] Di Tron became interested in the Lyran Commonwealth when the Commonwealth first began looking into domestic WarShip production in 2371; as a result of the combination of extensive financial chicanery on the part of experienced Lyran businessmen and the knowledge and know-how in WarShip construction held by Di Tron, a new company—Ioto Galactic Enterprises—was created in the Commonwealth, carefully avoiding the legal constraints around sale of restricted Terran Hegemony technologies, and in 2375 the first Commonwealth-class cruisers emerged from the Port Sydney Naval Shipyards.[4] During the Hegemony era, Di Tron had a hold of a large share of the construction market, with subsidiaries focused on urban and military construction. The company built the Nightwing surveillance corvette throughout the Age of War Era for the Hegemony,[5] and with the creation of the Star League, the company diversified, with Di Tron Shipbuilders pumping out quality craft from its ten shipyards.

Manufacturing[edit]

The only known Di Tron heavy Industries manufacturing center to survive the first three Succession Wars was the Port Sydney Naval Shipyards in orbit above Alarion in the Lyran Commonwealth,[6] which became part of Ioto Galactic Enterprises when the rest of the company was destroyed.[1] Di Tron's shipyards in the New Earth, Sirius, and Zebebelgenubi systems were destroyed during the First Succession War.[1][7]
