Kallon Industries is a large multinational military hardware manufacturer, producing everything from BattleMechs and Combat Vehicles to DropShips.

Overview

Founded July 15th 2808 in the Tikonov Commonality[1]. Considered to be a foreign company under League law, Kallon Industries has always had to fight an uphill battle to compete against the larger, local manufacturers. In order to improve their market potential, Kallon Industries has gone on a development blitz, upgrading their existing designs and reopening their maligned Exterminator line to produce a new variant for the ComGuards. Yet to have begun production, Kallon Industries has most recently developed what appears to be a deadly new version of their venerable Wolverine design. Having made only limited changes from the previous design, the new WVR-9M should be in full production within the next 6-8 months.

The premier Kallon facility in Federated Suns space, the Talon plant was located on the small rocky but mineral rich moon of the equally important agricultural world of Wernke, churning out high-quality 'Mechs at a record pace [2] prior to its destruction in 3069.[3]

During the Jihad, the company began to expand its profile of products to include AeroSpace Fighters. Where it DropShip productions in orbit of Loyalty managed to survives the attacks against the made against SelaSys WarShip facility nearby. The Kallon added Aerospace manufacturing plant on surface of the planet. By 3083, began production of its Poignard Light AeroSpace fighter, selling them to the newly formed Marik-Stewart Commonwealth. Two year later, adding a Poignard line to its production facilities on Asuncion for sales to the Republic of the Sphere.[4]

The Kallon Weapon Industries yards on Layover are noteworthy because they were idle and disused facilities forcibly leased from nearby Salvatore Incorporated. The Princess Regent ordered the two companies to work together during the Jihad, effectively nationalising a chunk of the run-down facility for the benefit of Kallon. This allowed the federal government to provide bailout loans and contracts to the benefit of both companies.[5] With new Arondight Pocket WarShips and Vengeance DropShips being successfully launched for the AFFS admiralty, by mid-3081 Kallon was considering expanding into more of the dormant facilities still owned by Salvatore Incorporated on Layover.[6]

In March 3080, elements within Kallon Industries were implicated in being involved in local disturbances on the world of Nanking, backed by interests in the Federated Suns; these elements were supplying weapons to rebels and renegade Coalition forces attempting to destablise the world.[7]

During the Lyran-Clan Wolf Invasion of the exFree Worlds League, many of Kallon's facilities would be captured by these invaders. Ultimately by 3142, Kallon's facilites gone to serve Clan Wolf and its newly formed Wolf Empire. Those facilties would stat to produce Clan grade weapons and equipment for the Empire's touman.[8][9]

Leadership

In 3025 the company's CEO was Duke Roderick FaCrimeia.[2]

The CEO as of 3067, was Justin Nakoma.[10]
