Saphiel-Kalanhuma Armoury

No private arms manufacturer in the Local Sector has attracted nearly as much scrutiny as Saphiel-Kalanhuma Armoury has - nor as many lawsuits. Saphiel-Kalanhuma began as a mercenary organisation active in the Golver Expanse with a reputation for violating the laws of the alien worlds they operated in. As the operation expanded, the group designed and produced more and more military hardware for their own use until eventually their manufacturing enterprise totally eclipsed their mercenary one.

The Saphiel-Kalanhuma firm that exists today is a vast institution infamous for its waste, corruption and political controversy. It fabricates effective, if unethical, military equipment which typically employs chemical, biological or radioactive warfare agents. Many of their products have been outlawed by imperial governments and are recalled and destroyed in certain areas of Alliance space. While this has reduced the number of their products in circulation, those still in use are prized items and status symbols for the pirates and mercenaries who own them.

Products manufactured or sold by Saphiel-Kalanhuma Armoury include:
 * SKA Antipersonnel Needle Rifle
 * SKA Apex Grenade Launcher
