Kojima Technology

Rayleonard, an energy company is responsible for the new highly advance technology, the Kojima. Its power is strong and surpasses the technology limits of their current world. How they manage to create it is unknown. It was created with the help of Akvavit.

After its creation, a corporation, namely Omer Science develops tests on it. With it, Omer Science manages to independently turn the Kojima into a weapon being used for battle. There, they have created a shield by using the Kojima Technology. As the shield activates, it releases Kojima Particles. This Particles absorb all of the force and damage of a weapon (although not all) making it an excellent defense.

The Kojima Particles are small energy particles that fade away from the energy shield of a Core when activated by using the Kojima Shield. This particles absorb all the force of an attack although, just like mentioned above, it doesn't absorb all of the damage of the attack. This particles are known to be highly polluting although not even the creators of the weapon knows why.

Minor Corporations

Akvavit

Longstanding military electronics corporation based in northern Europe. In addition to being the world's leading Kojima technology company, Akvavit produces top-of-the-line computing devices, sensors, and other electronics. Though offering weapons of impressive, cutting-edge functionality, their creations are plagued with a dangerous fragility. Akvavit has strong ties with Rayleonard, and also works with GA Europe.

Aldra

Military heavy industries corporation and member of the Interior Union. Aldra is the originator of the Actuator Complexity System and remains a specialist in the field. They also hold the distinction of being one of the only members of the Interior still focused on bullets over energy-based weapons.

Arisawa Heavy Industries

Though still technically an independent Company, Arisawa essentially falls under the GA family umbrella and is one of the leading economies of the Pacific Rim.

Cougar

A military manufacturer specializing in rocket engine technology. These days Cougar is criticized for stagnant design, suffering particularly in the area of Kojima rocket engine development.

Melies

A member of the Interior Union, Melies is strongest in the high-tech field, specializing in laser and rocket engine technologies. Widely acknowledged as the industry authority on the former.

MSAC International

Military manufacturer of computers, sensors, and other high-tech electronics. MSAC's high performance standards have traditionally accounted for a large portion of the GA group's profits. Their highly specialized weapons, particularly in the missile industry, hold a majority share in the market.

Omer Science

Omer Science is the only corporation being able to develop the Kojima Technology independently after the technology was created.

Technocrat

Offering mostly older technologies and generally falling behind in the engineering race, Technocrat's ties to Eqbal are the only things currently keeping this ailing Company afloat. Still clinging to their status as a controlling Company, if barely, the sun is poised to set permanently on Technocrat unless its minimal output sees improvement.
