> *"The only way we can win a siege is if Kuat surrenders, and even though we are the current galactic superpower, at most, we can cut off their fuel, it would take months until we can win the seige, we should realize that most likely what we will be doing is a naval battle over Kuat, with objectives from taking the shipyards to destroying the enemy ships."*

###

Kuat Drive Yards is an Imperial Remnant, truly established shortly after 5ABY as Reborn Imperial Engineering. Originally led by Jarkan Opla, it suffered at the hands of a tragic assassination by an imperial loyalist for "Treason". Since the assassination, Vector Jorgan has been the sole leader of the remnant.

## History

### Pre-Empire

One of the foremost military and shipbuilding corporations in the galaxy, Kuat Drive Yards firmly aligned with the Galactic Republic a decade before the onslaught of the Clone Wars. With the aid of its subsidiary Rothana Heavy Engineering, KDY produced most of the Republic Military's starships and vehicles throughout the Clone Wars. Notable products including the Acclamator Class Assault Ship, LAAT gunships, the formidable land-based AT-TE walker, and the Venator Star Destroyer were all produced by KDY, making it one of the most influential companies in the galaxy.

### Post-Empire

As a result of its importance in Republic military production, it quickly became the premier manufacturer for the Imperial War Machine, reaping huge profits as a result. The collusion of industrial and military power led to the distinct, dagger-shaped vessels utilized by the Imperial armed forces, with the company producing the most prominent symbols of Imperial might. The Imperial Star Destroyer and All Terrain-Armored Transport walker were products of KDY's massive infrastructure.

### Post-Endor

Shortly after the Battle of Endor, the Republic Fleet laid siege to Kuat, being able to capture the planet. Though Kuats true forces bid their time, and right after the False New Republic-Imperial Remnant Peace Talks, Kuat was able to reclaim their planet and shipyards. Requested by Gallius Rax to join the last stand at Jakku, Jarkan Opla saw through the ruse and knew it would spell their downfall. Declining, it led to their assassination. Following the battle, Vector Jorgan was assigned as the Head of Kuat Drive Yards.

### Current History

#### Development of New Defences

Following the loss of the former head, it was only natural to increase their defenses. Formed from this would be the All Terrain - Heavy Defense Walker, and the elite KDY Guard. Also, somewhat unrelated, around the time of these developments the Super Star Destroyer "Hero's Bane" began construction.

#### First Formal Contact with the Prefsbelt Array

It wouldn't be long until 2 agents from the array visited Kuat. Them being Ayrn Saedrn and Deathtrooper Commander Thorne. The meeting never was able to establish anything besides first contact.

#### The PCRE Contract

Through a holomeeting, the PCRE ordered an Imperial 2 Star Destroyer, 4 Pelta Class Frigates, and multiple Kuati Starfighters.

#### The Prefsbelt-Kuat Material Trade Agreement

Shortly after first contact, the Array offered Kuat a trade deal. Starships for food supplies for the Kuati People. Though at first declined, the offer was bargained down to complete parts in exchange for food and supplies.
