Gutierrez Aerospace is a small AeroSpace Fighter manufacturer in the Free Worlds League.

Overview

Guttierez Aerospace was founded by ace Stingray pilot Maria Guttierez after the League government pressured Andurien AeroTech into licensing the Stingray to her start-up company in an attempt keep up with demand for the popular fighter, starting production in 3040. The only small Aerospace firm in the Free Worlds League due to government sponsorship of Imstar Aerospace and Andurien AeroTech, the company survived thanks to the popularity among techs and pilots for its precision built and hand finished fighters. While produced in fairly limited qualities, Guttierez's newtech upgrade of the the Stingray, beating Andurien AeroTech to the punch by four months, earned a near cult level of pilot support combined with FWLM statistics indicating that Guttierez variant does have a higher level of survivability than any other Stingray variant, kept the manufacturer busy filling orders. Putting their experience on the F-94 to good use, Guttierez developed and released a brand new fighter, the Lancer, in 3064 which has also generated similar levels of pilot buzz.[1][2][3] [4]

After the dissolution of the Free Worlds League in the Jihad, Gutierrez Aerospace found that most of its output went to the Regulan Fiefs, but some fighters found their way into the Duchy of Tamarind-Abbey and mercenary hands.[5]

Leadership

The CEO in 3067 is Daniel Gutierrez.[2]
