'''Faulcon DeLacy''' (most of the time '''Faulcon deLacy''') is an [[independent]] manufacturer of [[ships]] and [[:Category:Equipment|equipment]] based in [[Reorte]]. It specializes 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''' (most of the time '''Faulcon deLacy''') is an [[independent]] [[Ship manufacturers|manufacturer]] of [[ships]] and [[:Category:Equipment|equipment]] based in [[Reorte]].

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]]. It rose to prominence when it developed a fighter craft which was 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" /> | Faulcon deLacy is one of the most famous names in the history of interstellar exploration.

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 This was an upgraded version of the now very dated Cobra, but was not especially successful and was soon withdrawn.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" /> | ||
In 3300, Faulcon deLacy stands as the largest independent ship manufacturer in colonised space. The interstellar powers recognise the quality of the work done by the corporation and often recognise this above any concerns over retaining technological exclusivity. It has both grown organically, and by acquisition, swallowing a great many of its smaller competitors and client yards over the years.<ref name="Prowess">Tourist Spot 0224, "Faulcon deLacy's Prowess"</ref> | In 3300, Faulcon deLacy stands as the largest independent ship manufacturer in colonised space.
