Unified Engineering Solutions

"If it wasn't for the strict watchdog regulations, they'd be running their own little sector of colony worlds in human space."

Unified Engineering Solutions (UES), colloquially known as Unified Engineering, is a cross-industrial corporate super-conglomerate based on the developed Unified Earth Government colony world Tyrrhenia. Known best for their military manufacturing, they notably design and produce a wide variety of weapons, equipment, aircraft, exoatmospheric small craft, and starships.

Following the, a number of the United Nations Space Command's largest private shipyards remained damaged or destroyed by invading forces. The largest of these, had lost almost the entirety of their orbital and surface complexes during the Battle of Mars in 2552, thus being forced to rebuild from the ground up, with the aid of a small amount of financial support from the UNSC. As Tyrrhenia, along with numerous worlds near it, was entirely untouched and unencountered by Covenant warships during the war, the majority of Unified Engineering's manufacturing complex remained intact and operable; they were the most capable shipwright available to the UNSC in 2553. They promptly took on the responsibility of repairing—and, at times, refitting—the UNSC Navy's standing fleet of warships and logistical support vehicles.

In 2564, the company bad begun work on the first in the new wave of state-of-the-art military starships, and by mid-2565, the first destroyers of the Hellespont-class were commissioned into service.
