In 3053, the famous [[Floating Tower]], [[Federated-Boeing Interstellar]]'s corporate HQ in the [[Galax]] system, was raided by an unknown force. Shortly after, Irian Technologies began producing an identical upgrade of the ''[[Leopard (DropShip class)|Leopard]]''-class [[DropShip]]. Federated-Boeing filed protests with the Federated Commonwealth and [[ComStar]], but nothing came of it.<ref>''Technical Readout: 3057 Revised'', p. 12</ref>

Between [[3067]] and [[3072]], Irian Technologies maintained a neutral stance towards the [[Word of Blake]]. This worked to IrTech's advantage: Where other manufacturers were destroyed by the [[Jihad]], IrTech was able to survive and even succeed. When the tide turned against the Blakists, however, IrTech found that their neutrality cost them many favors and (more importantly) customers, leaving the Word of Blake as their largest customer. The Word ruthlessly pushed this advantage, and by 3072 the Word of Blake controlled Irian Technologies.<ref name=M&M76>''Masters and Minions: The StarCorps Dossiers'', p. 76: "Irian Technologies Profile"</ref>
