'''Valiant Systems''' was a military equipment manufacturer, primarily of armor and munitions, adding [[combat vehicle]]s to their production schedules.
 
  
==History==
+
==Leadership==
Valiant Systems produced civilian hover cars for most of its history. For the [[AFFS]], it manufactured both armor and missile systems. Late in the [[Third Succession War]], the company introduced the [[Striker (Combat Vehicle)|Striker]] tank with [[Wunderland Enterprises]]. From there the company branched out into other light combat vehicles. During the [[Clan Invasion]], Valiant provided assistance to [[Scarborough Manufacturers]] on [[Al Na'ir]]. In return, the [[Draconis Combine]] company provided Valiant with a license to build the Pegasus hovertank.<ref name=HB:HDp175>''Handbook: House Davion'', p. 175: "Valiant Systems (ValSys)"</ref>
+
The companies CEO in [[3067]] was Katheraine ul Thram.<ref>''Handbook: House Davion'', p. 175, "Valiant Systems Profile"</ref>
 
 
During the [[Jihad]], both plants were affected. The Johnsondale facility lost forty percent of its capital and personnel, while the Robinson plant lost a quarter of its staff and facility. In [[3079]], Johnsondale plant was operating at 80% of its maximum yield, while Robinson facility was operating at 75% of its maximum capacity.<ref name=O:FSp3>''Objectives: Federated Suns'', p. 3: "State of the Industry at a Glance (Dec 3079)"</ref> Valiant Systems benefited from the rebuilding efforts encouraged by [[Devlin Stone]] in the post-Jihad period; when the site of the destroyed [[Achernar BattleMechs]] plant on [[Achernar]] was redeveloped, Valiant Systems took on a part of the factory complex. The redevelopment on Achernar was highlighted in a news broadcast by [[Federated Suns]] journalist [[Peter Remonde]] on 15 August [[3081]] as an example of the wide-scale rebuilding which had already begun at the instigation of the allied coalition, even before the formation of the [[Republic of the Sphere]]. At the time of Remonde's broadcast, the Valiant Systems plant on Achernar was due to begin producing a range of industrial vehicles and the [[Fox (Combat Vehicle)|Fox armored car]] imminently, with plans already in motion to expand the production lines at the factory to also produce the [[Ranger VV1|Ranger Infantry Fighting Vehicle]].<ref name="J:FRp33+">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', pp. 33–34: "Achernar: An Example of Recovery"</ref>
