Overview[edit]

Lang Industries was a defense manufacturing company located in the Terran Hegemony for much of its history. Based on Caph, Lang Industries had a long history of producing BattleMechs for the Hegemony Armed Forces and then later the Star League Defense Force, most notably the Shadow Hawk, which Lang first began manufacturing in 2467.[1]

Caph took massive damage during the Amaris Civil War. WMDs were liberally used against the SLDF Third Army in 2776. By the time Caph was finally liberated, large parts of the world had been contaminated and rendered uninhabitable, with every major industrial city and many of the minor cities in ruins.[2] Lang Industries appears to have survived the destruction, as by 2796 they were producing the 2D variant of the Shadow Hawk on Caph for the Federated Suns and the 2K variant for the Draconis Combine in 2803.[1] However, by this time the world had been under Capellan Confederation control.[3]
