'''Bluth Corporation''' was a large manufacturer of various [[IndustrialMech]]s.
 
 
 
==Overview==
 
==Overview==
Bluth Corp had produced the ''Buster'' series HaulerMech since the mid-[[twenty-sixth century]] and had numerous offices around the [[Inner Sphere]]. When a former employee of Bluth formed [[Sitwell Corporation]] and introduced the ''[[Powerman]]'', the Bluth Corporation filed a lawsuit that lasted for years (the lawsuit actually lasted through the fall of the [[Star League]] and the beginning of the [[First Succession War]]). George Bluth, president and CEO at the time, was indicted on several counts of treason, embezzling, and theft. This led to the destruction of Bluth Corporation as an interstellar entity, with only the Terran office remaining intact.<ref>''Technical Readout: Vehicle Annex Revised'', p. 218: "BC XXI Buster / SC XV Powerman HaulerMechs"</ref>
