'''Faulcon DeLacy''' is an [[independent]] manufacturer of [[ships]] and [[:Category:Equipment|equipment]] that is based in [[Reorte]]. They specialize in producing multipurpose and [[combat]]-oriented ships known for their ruggedness and reliability. The company was founded in the 28th century as Faulcon Manspace and made its name with the original Viper before rapidly expanding through a number of acquisitions including deLacy ShipWorks and [[Zorgon Peterson]]. By the 34th century, the company has become the largest of all ship manufacturers, as well as one of the most widespread and consistently admired corporations in the galaxy. Public regard for Faulcon deLacy is so high that the [[Alliance]], [[Empire]], and [[Federation]] have all attempted to secure exclusivity contracts, but without success.<ref name="KBFD" />

Faulcon deLacy is one of the most famous names in the history of interstellar exploration. The [[Corporations|corporation]] began life as a much smaller organisation: Faulcon Manspace, a military supply organisation based in [[Reorte]]. They first rose to prominence when they developed a new fighter craft they christened the Viper.<ref name="Beginnings">Tourist Spot 0223, "Faulcon deLacy's Beginnings"</ref> The Viper's sales exceeded all expectations, enough so that Faulcon Manspace was forced to license production to other companies just to meet demand.<ref name="KBFD" />

As the company prospered, it introduced new innovations and sought to tap into other markets with ship designs named after dangerous snakes, such as the Cobra Mk I for traders and the [[Sidewinder Mk I]] for light reconnaissance duties. Faulcon Manspace merged with deLacy ShipWorks in 2982, one of the largest shipyards building Faulcon ships under license.<ref name="KBFD" /> One of the first new products from the merged company was the troubled Cobra Mk II which released in 3034. This was an upgraded version of the now very dated Cobra Mk I, but was not especially successful and was soon withdrawn. Despite this, the new company grew into a corporate behemoth, and went from strength to strength, launching the [[Cobra Mk III]] to great acclaim in 3100.<ref name="Beginnings" />
