Azimut S.A. (HE: AZM; BSE: AAZ) is an Aininian multinational defence and aerospace company headquartered in Talon, Linaque and one of Esquarium's largest defence contractors with $29.530 billion in annual turnover. Founded in 1967 from the acquisition of the bankrupt aircraft manufacturer ACARA by the defence contractor Bonsecours, the merged company took on the name Azimut and a wide range of new civil and military projects, including major commercial successes such as the AF-2 Cormoran fighter-bomber and the A-44 Saturne regional airliner.

The company has a large and diversified portfolio centered around its core aviation and military businesses. Its civil aerospace division, Azimut Aviation, produces airliners, utility aircraft and helicopters for commercial use, while its military division, Azimut Defence and Aerospace, develops and manufactures combat and support aircraft and accompanying electronic and weapons systems for military use. The latter is also involved in space development.

It is the largest military contractor in Ainin and the Esquarian Community, as well as the largest aircraft manufacturer in Esquarium. Its main competitor is the Nevan Revontuli in the civilian market and the Luziycan Yemelyanovich in the military market.
