Kuat Drive Yards is the largest military shipbuilding corporation in the fictional Star Wars universe and owns several subsidiary corporations including Kuat Systems Engineering and Rothana Heavy Engineering (the latter of which provided armament and ships for Supreme Chancellor Palpatine's clone army during Clone Wars). KDY is one of the few major corporations which sided with the Galactic government during the Clone Wars, against the Confederacy of Independent Systems. Kuat Drive Yards' major competitors for major military contracts during the Imperial reign included Sienar Fleet Systems and Corellian Engineering Corporation. After the Galactic Civil War, New Republic took control of Kuat Drive Yards and the company began production of spaceships for the Republic, however, some factories of Kuat Drive Yards continued building Star Destroyers and Walkers for the Imperial Remnant. The main shipyards at the Kuat system actually ring the entirety of the system and in terms of sheer manufacturing ability it was first among equals. KDY also sells planetary turbolasers, which, according to their catalog, is the "first, last, and only line of defense" for a planet. ==Subsidiaries== ===Rothana Heavy Engineering=== This subsidiary was in operation prior to and during the Clone Wars, they had a contract with the cloners on Kamino and created war machines for the Galactic Republic's clone troopers army. Some of Rothana's products include: *LAAT (LAAT gunship, with infantry, cargo and vehicle variants) *All Terrain Assault Walkers (AT-TE, AT-HE, AT-XT and the Republic - or prototype - AT-AT) *''Acclamator''-class assault ship *SPHA-T walker (Self-Propelled Heavy Artillery - Turbolaser) *TX-130s fighter tank ===Kuat Systems Engineering=== This subsidiary was in operation toward the end of the Galactic Republic (Star Wars).
