Akira Heavy Industries, natively rendered in HCL as Akira Jūkō is one of the three major Neo-Korean Iminchebol responsible for the production of key resources within the defense and civilian sectors, operating alongside Miyamoto Ltd and Karasu in this role. It was founded in 1898 by Akira Katashi as Akira Light Industries, achieving Iminchebol status in 1906 following a number of acquisitions in Jungg'o. It has historically been owned by the Akira Family since its establishment, with the latest head of the company, Akira Hikari, having been adopted into the family at a young age. Akira is headquartered in Fuzan, one of the few companies to do such.
Akira Heavy Industries has existed in some form since the Kaesong Period, being founded by Akira Katashi in 1898. It is one of the largest employers in Neo-Korea, hiring over 300,000 individuals and having a notable market share in a number of foreign ventures. It is distinctly interlinked with the state, with Akira projects being used to project a form of soft power in numerous occasions. It is the on-paper largest defense contractor in the world, although this is generally considered dubious in actuality due to the incorporation of subordinate corporations in its overall employee number.
Akira does not have any notable international purchasers, although by technicality products such as the NMT-92 "Sangaku" have ended up in the arsenals of nations such as Kozakura.
