CINO

CINO (Corporation Internationale Nauticale et Oceanique) is a European aquacorp that specializes in the underwater shipping and technology services around the Pacific Rim and Atlantic Rim. They became embroiled in a conflict with rival aquacorp OTEC, which later resulted in a full-scale Fourth Corporate War, with CINO hiring the Arasaka Corporation to fight on their behalf against OTEC's proxy - Militech.

Background
Originally a British shipping firm, CINO deals mainly in the construction of shipping vessels and related navigation and shipping equipment. This is done at their huge dry-dock facility in Le Havre, or at Marseilles. They have modest krill processing centers, a few sea farms, and dozens of undersea research labs. For 10 years they've been unsuccessfully struggling to break into nautitech.

Equipment & Resources
The corporation has access to state of-the-art military vessels (since they build them) and can delay delivery of any of these vessels to take them on a "proving test." Each office has several AVs for antisub work, assault, and cargo transport They have contracts with Europe's best hospitals, and can call on high-quality mercenaries.
