BBP Industries Company Logo

For many years BBP Industries was the only manufacturer of 'Mech carring Dropships in the Draconis Combine.[1] They lost this unique status when Matabushi Incorporated started producing Overlord and Union DropShips.[2]

During the Clan Invasion time period, they expanded their offerings to include several other DropShips and Space Stations.

Manufacturing

BBP Industries has manufacturing centers on the following planets:

Luthien

Note: During the Jihad the Luthien factory suffered greatly losing 95% of its workforce and capital. In 3079, after several years of rebuilding, the factory was only at 5% of its pre-Jihad output.[3]

Components produced on Luthien:[4]
Component Type
Small Craft
K-1 Dropshuttle[citation needed] Small Craft
DropShips
Excalibur[1][4][5] Dropships
Intruder[1] Dropships
Nekohono'o[4] Dropships
Okinawa''[6][4] Dropships
Rose[4] Dropships
Triumph[1][5] Dropships
Space Station
BattleSat[7] Space Stations
Interplanetary Drive - Small Craft
Pratt & Whitney 400 [citation needed]

? (for Okinawa) [citation needed]

New Samarkand

During the Jihad BBP Industries opened an additional facility in the New Samarkand system. As of 3079 it is unclear what is being produced at this location, but speculation suggests that the site is actually a repair and refit yard instead of a production plant.[8]

Components produced on New Samarkand[9]
