MalDef is a multinational defence corporation headquarted in Aurora, Malgrave. It is the main supplier of military goods to the Malgravean military, with the corporation having a large presence in Aurora and Pakosc.
In recent years the company has branched out to producing vessels capable of travelling in space, with several units of exploratory science vessels and one cruiser variant under production for use by the Malgravean Armed Forces.
History
MalDef was originally founded in 1910 to produce small arms and relatively simple products for the Malgravean military and lessen the need for imports, however, the heavy Imerian blockade of this era eventually required MalDef to branch out and construct more complicated items of equipment, with small tracklayers being constructed in the 20s and 30s to provide extra cover to troops during Imerian offences.
Shortly after the exodus, a partial reorganisation in MalDef shifted the efforts of the company to salvaging old military equipment to be used for civilian construction efforts and the long-term fate of the company was undetermined, as a result the MalDef works were frequently hit by wildcat striikes and other disruptive activities.
Im 1938 this disruptive behaviour stopped, as the start of the Malgravean Civil War meant that the efforts of the company were rapidly refocused to armming the Territorial Defence Force and stabilising the front.
Between 1938 and 1983 MalDef constructed a variery of equipment for the Malgravean Armed Forces based on the requirements of the military. MalDef also constructed highly advanced exploratory submarines for the Ministry of Science and Engineering.
Since the end of the Malgravean Civil War MalDef has cemented a reputation as a producer of high quality military equipment. It is particuarly notable for producing advanced naval vessels and artillery which forms a backbone of the countries defensive strategy.
