Eagle Craft Group is a Clan Jade Falcon manufacturer.

Description[edit]

The Eagle Craft Group was originally a Kerensky Cluster-based manufacturer of combat-related equipment for Clan Jade Falcon. After the Clan Ice Hellion invasion of 3072, the Clan transferred the group's manufacturing abilities to mobile factories in the Inner Sphere.

In the form of mobile factories, the Eagle Craft Group continued to produce its line of equipment in limited quantities. The Group's assets were used to beef up frontline forces replacement needs, where they assembled and dissembled if facilities to where they were needed.

Summoner production was discontinued by the Group when a planet-based factory became operational on Sudeten. Aside from producing 'Mechs and other equipment for the Clan, it was involved in the designing of new products for other manufacturers, such as the Chalchiuhtotolin support tank for Clan-controlled Quikscell Company on Pandora.[1][2]

By the early 3080s, the Eagle Craft Group was still producing equipment for the Jade Falcons, but was only capable of producing limited runs at high cost.[3]

The Eagle Craft Group had established an administrative center on Erewhon before the Jihad. This admin center oversaw production in the mobile factories in the Jade Falcon Occupation Zone.[4] Though the mobile factories were able to survive the Jihad, they took heavy losses. About 55% of their crews were killed and, in 3079, the Erewhon-controlled mobile plants were only operating at 70% of their potential.[5]

Eagle Craft Group has a manufacturing center on the following planet:
