Arasaka Weapons Factories (Yokohama)

The Arasaka Weapons Factories is a location in Cyberpunk 2020.

Overview
The Arasaka weapons factories are located in a heavily secured 500 acre area of Yokohama in the Tokyo bay. There are three factories to be precise, all with their own specialty. The first factory produces many Arasaka branded vehicles, the second one produces Arasaka weapons and personal armor, and finally the third one produces electronic security devices and computers. The factories sit on portside industrial land acquired in the post-Crash corporate take over. The vehicle factory is immense, containing assembly lines for all their vehicles. The security equipment and weapons production buildings are smaller than the vehicle factory, but still huge. All remaining space is devoted to warehouses, garrisons, rail tracks, piers, an administration building, and the Maritime Security School building, teaching up to 500 troops at any one time.

The facility has, in the past, been attacked by it's competitor Militech, and as such started featuring heavy security. The land was purchased by Arasaka and is policed by both the Corporate Security and Arasaka Police forces and has up to one thousand troops at any one time, not to mention the 500 or so Maritime recruits and the odd Solo. Since little sensitive data is stored at the factories there are fewer elite solos on site than at the Northern Honshu R&D complex. Solos can be delivered within minutes, however, as it is only a short hop by air to the Tokyo tower.

Details
While the Arasaka Corporation contains many manufacturing industrial parks around the world, the Weapons Factories in Yokohama is the largest and provides a majority of the forces in Japan.
