Sterope Defense Industries was the primary manufacturer of heavy weapons in the Taurian Concordat of BattleMechs and armor forces for the Taurian Defense Force.[2]

Overview[edit]

The company's research and development department was highly regarded, and received the lion's share of the company's profits.[2]

On 21 November 3075, the Sterope Defense Industries facility on Sterope was plundered by the mercenary unit Hansen's Roughriders, acting as part of a Federated Suns counteroffensive against the Concordat. In contrast with attacks made on other worlds, the Roughriders left the Sterope Defense Industries facilities intact after they'd been looted, rather than destroying the factories.[3][4] The Sterope factories would still be heavily damaged during the war, and as of 3081 had yet to return to full production.[5]

In 3079, only fifteen percent of the workforce had escaped the horrors of the Jihad. Despite this the company's factories were producing at half their capacity.[6] Turning a liability into a strength, SDI was rebuilding the plant with new production accounting techniques and increased automation.[1]

Sterope Defense Industries has manufacturing centers on the following planets:
