In [[3025]], the company had been thrown into a state of confusion.  An unknown company, [[Federated-Boeing Interstellar]] being the primary suspect, had been buying up a significant amount of the corporation's controlling stocks. Efforts to prevent this hostile takeover drained the company's resources, complicating the completion of a new lighter engine it had been developing for its ''Sparrowhawk'' design.<ref name=HD150/> It was later revealed that Federated-Boeing ''was'' the acquiring buyer that failed in taking control of Jalastar.<ref>''Handbook: House Davion'', p. 166: "Federated-Boeing Corp" corporate profile</ref>
