AEGIS Armaments: Difference between revisions
Created page with "The original defense contractor for the UNMC that has supplied most if not all of the weapons used before We-Ya." |
Pushed the lore proposal I made in the #Wiki channel after a green light from Whisper. Intends on adding more meat to AEGIS lorewise, when previously the page was a single sentence. This also dovetails AEGIS into the new Orthis lore. |

AEGIS Armaments is responsible not only for the manufacture of small arms (Such as the M54C Line of rifles) but also support systems such as mortars, anti-air measures, and equipment such as body armor.
AEGIS Armaments was initially incorporated in the United Nations, and would manufacture small arms such as pistols for the civilian market.

From this jumping off point, AEGIS progressively grew more entrenched within the UNMC procurement establishment. By the time of The Orthis War, AEGIS had become the largest contractor for the UN, with AEGIS engaging in aggressive boardroom takeovers of various competitors with the silent approval of their UN benefactors.
In recent years, AEGIS and its near monopoly on the UNMC’s procurement has started to crack, with the most recent sign being the UNMC’s adoption of the M77 pistol as standard issue in their modern sidearm competition.
