Tsunami

Tsunami Defense Systems (Tsunami Design Bureau or Tsunami Arms) is one of the four biggest weapons manufactures located in Osaka, Japan. It's also one of the big three top tier weapons manufacturers in the world.

Overview
Tsunami Defense Systems is up there with Arasaka, as one of the best weapons manufacturers in the world. These three mysterious individuals originally started out making airsoft guns in the 1990s. When the government made it possible for private companies to get weapon production licenses in 1998, Tsunami was at the front of the line. Tsunami became a secretive, innovative company, a favorite of weapon Otakus. If a person was interested had enough money and they happen to like that said person, they might special-order a particular gun for that person. Tsunami in the present day continues to make model guns for Solos of the future.

History
Formed by three friends on the bones of a Japanese airgun company, Tsunami was born in the Net, and this has flavored its feel to this day : Tsunami is a very eclectic, loosely organized corporation. Tsunami utilizes the latest in computer-assisted design and manufacturing equipment, and has maintained a reputation of being more than a little ahead of the cutting edge of technology, a rep that has many mystified, as they would appear to lack the resources and manpower to rival giants like Militech in terms of research and development. Rumors abound of a rogue AI (stolen from either the Pentagon or Arasaka), but Tsunami flatly denies such claims and there has been absolutely no proof brought to light on this topic. For many years, Tsunami was a top secret organization, working strictly behind the scenes, providing designs to governments and a few select corporations, but in the last three years they have expanded their services into the public market. Response has been excellent, and Tsunami's economic growth has been almost frightening.

Personnel
Tsunami's employees are an eclectic bunch, ranging from R&D experts with three doctorates working in the machine shop to streetwise techies working in the high-energy lab. They are, without exception, innovative geniuses, multi-disciplinarians, and combat trained. (Tsunami's dress code is simple-wear clothes, and always have a gun on you.) They are well paid, well treated, and devoted to the company with a loyalty that borders on fanaticism.

Allies & Enemies
Tsunami is on good terms with most of their competitors, simply because of their specialized niche and market and the additional revenues brought in by high-quality designs tested by Tsunami and marketed by the various companies. They are especially friendly with Militech who are creating a joint project with Tsunami called Hurricane Arms, Lazarus whose ops units frequently are able to field test pre-release designs, and Raven Microcybnetics; RMC has a large contract with Tsunami for security small arms.

Tsunami has also cultivated a good working relationship with Infocomp, which many analysts theorize has played more than a small role in Tsunami's disproportionate amount of breakthrough developments.

One notable exception to Tsunami's generally genial relations is Arasaka, with whom Tsunami has maintained a state of low-level hostility almost from the beginning. This was escalated by Arasaka to near-war in 2017, and only quick action by lnfocomp and Militech prevented Tsunami's takeover or annihilation. The reasons for this mutual enmity are unknown.

Resources
Tsunami has well kept medical facilities in each of their offices. They maintain a fleet of eighteen AV craft (mostly AV-4s, but at least 2 AV-6s and an AV-8 are kept for testing purposes), six helicopters, and six corporate jets. Although their security and covert operatives are extremely well armed with conventional and heavy weapons (much of it not available on the market...), they have immediate access to little in the way of military grade vehicles or artillery (although they own at least six PA suits, all custom). They can, of course, call on the impressive assets of Militech and Lazarus when necessary. Tsunami maintains at least three top secret testing and construction facilities, one somewhere in Japan, one in the Rockies, and a third in an as yet unknown location (most rumors point to a crater outside Tycho base, but as Tsunami is not known to possess any space transports, this is hardly credible). Tsunami is rumored to have a powerful "rogue" AI, possibly named Muramasa, at their command, as well as several lesser computer systems, all very well defended.
