Atlantis Corporation

The Atlantis Corporation is a Terran defence contractor. It is the main supplier of the Federal Army, but also produces weapons for other states and private parties. It is the second largest defence contractor of the Galaxy, only behind its main partner corporation Siems. It was founded in 2335 by a state-sponsored merger of several weapon manufacturers. In 2495, it merged with Siems to form General Appliances. It is based in the Atlantis Arcology on Earth.
The Atlantis Corporation initially had the status of Terran corporation. It was founded by the Federal Act on Military Equipment, which aimed to centralise armament production to just a few companies. The five companies chosen were TMP, Siems Shipyards, Marasi Aeronautics and the two newly-formed Atlantis Corporation and Xanadu Driveyards. Atlantis was meant, alongside TMP, to become the Federation's main supplier of infantry equipment and military ground vehicles. As such, the companies which were merged to become AC were Dassault, Thales, Rheinmetall, Heckler and Koch, Raytheon Technologies, Rostec, Leonardo, Rafael and others. In following years some parts of Dassault and Raytheon assets were transferred to Marasi.
