Imperium Aerospace (IA) is a Drahen aerospace and defense conglomerate that produces commercial and military aircraft and provides aeronautical and aerospace launch services to both the Imperial Republic and abroad. The company was created in 1484 by decree of Emperor blank as a government owned corporation providing domestically produced aircraft. The Drahen Government contributed to Imperium's early growth by providing license production contracts, the most famous being the F-4 fighter. The company continued to increased its product line as demand grew; it sold solely to the domestic market until 1511, with the sale of the F-4 to Ishnalla.

While military aircraft made up the majority of Imperium's products though the 1510's, by 1521 a Imperium Aerospace debuted their regional airliner, the IAS-120. Aimed at the export market in particular, this plane marked the first of Imperium's highly successful small airliners. By 1545 the company had been completely privatized and slowly moved its focus from military contracts to commercial airliners, though it was re-nationalized by the Military Reform Act of 1572. Today Imperium Aerospace offers a variety of commercial and military aircraft of all shapes and sizes along with providing commercial space launch systems.

History

Imperium Aerospace was formed in the Imperial Republic as a state-owned corporation by the Aircraft and Shipbuilding Industries Act of 1484, which created two corporations, Imperium Aerospace and Imperial Shipyard, and in the process absorbing several private aircraft and ship-building firms. Working in conjunctions with international partners, Imperium Aerospace quickly began to produce foreign aircraft designs for the Imperial Republic such as the blank, and blank. Within a few years, Imperium began in-house design of a new light fighter, the F-4. The design wrapped a small, highly aerodynamic fighter around two compact and high-thrust engines, focusing on performance, agility, and low cost of maintenance. The aircraft proved to a hit, selling to the militaries of several dozen countries throughout Siora, and is still in service to this day. With income from the sale of the F-4, more than tripling revenue between 1495 and 1500 Imperium quickly grew in size and moved into the rotary-wing market with the release of the UH-90 in 1506. With the Drah-Indian war starting in 1510, Imperium quickly released several new designs and upgrades to current aircraft, such as the AH-92, the UH-90C, and the F-4C, and further ramped up production to support the armed forces during the conflict.

With the end of the conflict in 1522 and subsequent drawdown in military spending, Imperium Aerospace turned to the civilian airliner market. The company made a decision not to compete with other, more established aerospace firms such as Scholden Luftvaerks and blank, in their monopoly wide-body airliner market. Instead, Imperium identified a need for smaller, narrow body regional aircraft, which at the time were older and smaller tubroprop aircraft. The company decided to introduce an aircraft based on the principles of the F-4: low-maintenance and low cost, and by 1527 released their first narrow-body regional jetliner the blank in 1527. The choice soon proved to be a good one, as within a few years Imperium had exploited the smaller market of regional jetliners to make it's own monopoly on the regional jet market, which wasn't contested until (date) with the introduction of blank by blank. Even today, Imperial Aerospace is a major player in the narrow-body and regional airliner market.
