About


A gargantuan industrial corporation centered around the production and sale of weaponry through both legitimate and illegitimate means. They are by far the leading arms manufacturer and military contractor throughout Gaia, and are one of the most wealthy and powerful companies on the planet. They have gained much favour with certain consumers for their policy of not asking too many questions about what happens to their wares once they're sold.

Finding its roots during the beginning of the Great Cataclysm, Black Kat Industries was quick to expand its profits and influence by taking advantage of the fear of Gaia's populous, and this fear and urgency helped better legitimise some rather dubious corporate practice. As well as this, Black Kat has also long maintained a sizable private army of its own, made primarily of mercenaries exclusively under their contract, for stated purposes of "Protecting the interests and safety of Black Kat .Ind and the employees thereof". In reality however, it is merely an excuse for them to exercise military power on their own terms, and for their own profit. These mercenaries are often contracted to various other groups for large fees.

Very little is known about the inner operations of the company or their board of executives, and Black Kat takes great care to maintain the secrecy of its inner workings. This is often times frustrating to those who would like to bring the law against Black Kat Industries for their numerous alleged crimes.

What is known is that the corporation is currently under the leadership of a man known only as Chairman Zacchaeus, and that he is one of the most wealthy people in all Gaia. These facts alone have made him a very powerful and dangerous individual.

The company's motto is a simple one, but one that fits them perfectly.

Equipment & Technology


The bread and butter of Black Kat Industries, both their regular mercenary forces and the powerful CELL agents heavily rely on the cutting edge weaponry and gadgets the mammoth company produces. Advanced, inventive and almost always extremely deadly, the technology Black Kat employs is what enables the many regular humans in the company's employ to match if not surpass the combat potential of mages, meta-beings, and mythological monstrosities. What follows is a rundown of various examples of such tools.


Black Kat Ind. VTOL MR490 Var.1 "Kittyhawk" Gunship

A staple of Black Kat's military assets, the MR490 or the "Kittyhawk" as it's been dubbed is a versatile multi-role vertical takeoff and landing aircraft, designed to effectively take on a wide variety of combat roles and situations. Powered by two high output variable cycle jet engines mounted upon rotating pivots at the end of each wing, the Kittyhawk can function as a manoeuvrable close support craft while it's engines are in vertical, fuel efficiency mode, or can take the mantle of a multi-role fighter or fast transport craft while the engines are locked in horizontal orientation, and is capable of reaching mach speeds. With a built-in transport bay on it's rear underbelly, the Kittyhawk can comfortably transport squads of soldiers, sensitive personnel, or prisoners of war with ease, and has capacity to accommodate a single light vehicle in the loading bay, or a heavier vehicle underslung below with cables. The pilot has access to some of the most sophisticated flight assistance and sensory systems Black Kat Industries has thus far mass produced, and can make short work of almost any target once its locked on.

Black Kat Industries have so far produced thousands of Kittyhawks, and make use of them nearly everywhere that air power is required, making them a common sight anywhere that Black Kat holds property. They are also a favoured choice for the secure ferrying of Black Kat executive staff and for deploying the company's infamous CELL agents to their various contract assignments, and different design revisions including a business class corporate version and special forces version have been produced.

Armament:
Wings:
2x Rocket pods, 6-8x Air-to-surface missiles (varying types), 2x Air-to-air missiles
Nose:
1x 30mm Rotary cannon, computer aim-assisted turret
Countermeasures: 2x Chaff deployment mechanisms, anti ordinance macro for 30mm cannon
Maximum Speed: 935mph (Bay empty)
Maximum Range: 4000miles
Maximum Flight Ceiling: 40000m (Fighter mode) 21000m (Gunship mode)
Length: 68.58ft
