So this article suggests the Spector was originally designed by Norse-Storm Technologies Incorporated, but NSTI doesn't exist until the 3030s or so, right? Colonel Storm gets money from Norse to restore an old star league factory, isn't that their whole thing?

It doesn't make any sense to suggest they are the original designers if Star League forces had them, which I know they did based on some of the availability tables in the Star League Field Manual. I'd like to see a citation for that bit or just edit the language if we don't know the original designers. Very new to wiki/editing, so didn't want to make a change without a talk first. Seems like an easy mistake to make since they were the "only" manufacturer post succession wars I imagine, or is this an actual canon error? --Signal (talk) 19:34, 22 October 2021 (EDT)

Thanks for the question, Signal. I've posted it to our discord server's #research-desk. Hopefully, you have an answer back in short order.--Revanche ^{(talk|contribs)} 21:02, 22 October 2021 (EDT)
