History
- In 2762, Faulcon Manspace won the contract to design a police ship, and created the Viper, which was to earn the company a large amount of money and becomes the standard GalCop Police ship. The design is sent to all shipyards on medium to high technology worlds for immediate mass production.
- In 2888, Faulcon Manspace purchased Prossett and Salem to get into the lucrative 'one man trader' market, and they acquired the Cobra Mk. I from that takeover.
- In 2982, the Galactic Navy contracted Faulcon Manspace to design a multi-purpose support craft for their need for a fast and manoeuvrable forward reconnaissance craft. This ship became known as the Sidewinder Scout Ship. The design immediately becomes very popular with space pirates.
- In 3034, a merger with deLacy ShipWorks of Inines, who manufactured the Krait, saw them change their name to the more familiar Faulcon DeLacy.
- In 3095, Faulcon DeLacy, under the name of Faulcon Manspace, constructed the first Iguana. It was their last ship to be produced under the Faulcon Manspace name. Following the debacle of the Cobra Mk. II, they sub-contracted the Cobra Mk. III to Cowell & MgRath Shipyards of Lave while they replaced their entire R&D department.
- In 3113, Faulcon DeLacy purchased Cowell & MgRath and brought the Cobra Mk. III back in house.
- In 3126, Faulcon DeLacy purchased the Zorgon Peterson Group, the designers of the Fer-de-Lance. Faulcon DeLacy's recent replacement for the now aging Viper, the Viper Interceptor, could be a big earner.
FE2/FFE Expanded Timeline
- In the early 3100's, the Fer-de-Lance becomes a favourite with bounty hunters, but becomes outlawed in the late 3100's due to its overuse by pirates. During this time Faulcon DeLacy's corporate headquarters was moved to Olympus Village on Mars in Sol.
- In 3195, Faulcon DeLacy designs and manufactures the Eagle Long Range Fighter, and made a lot of money from sales of if the Eagle and its successors the Mk 2 and Mk 3.
- In 3248, Building on the success of their hugely successful Viper, Faulcon DeLacy once again broke into new ground with the release of the Viper Mk II Weighing in at almost twice the weight of the original, the Mk II has improved forward and retro thrusters yet comes with a similar price tag.
