Chempat Engineered Defenses (sometimes referred to as "Chepat") is an emerging force in the galaxy’s starship technology and manufacturing sector. The company specializes in the production and distribution of advanced ship components, offering tailored solutions for both civilian and military applications.
Originally established as a collaborative venture between the legendary Kuat Drive Yards (KDY) and Corellian Engineering Corporation, Chempat operated as a formal subsidiary under KDY’s expansive corporate structure. However, following the Galactic Empire’s takeover of Kuat and the subsequent nationalization of KDY under the Trade Federation, many of its subsidiaries, including Chempat, were dissolved or absorbed into larger entities.
Under the leadership of Nikkedima Kuat, heir apparent to the House Kuat legacy, Chempat has been revitalized and reimagined as an independent entity. Guided by his vision to restore the prominence of both his family and Kuat Drive Yards, Nikkedima has leveraged strategic alliances and innovative business practices to position Chempat as a formidable upstart in the galactic marketplace. The company operates under the protection of the Free Enterprise Act, granted by the Theocracy of Glom Tho and backed by Crimson Dawn, ensuring operational autonomy and a robust platform for expansion.
Chempat’s core expertise lies in the manufacturing of ship components, ranging from propulsion systems and hull reinforcements to cutting-edge navigational arrays. The company also offers a curated selection of limited licensed products, drawing upon its historical ties to KDY and Corellian Engineering Corporation. This access enables Chempat to supply rare and sought-after components, including legacy items from the defunct Republic Fleet Systems, catering to clients seeking reliable and proven technology.
Despite the constraints imposed by KDY’s continued operations and Nikkedima’s fledgling influence, Chempat is committed to sourcing and revitalizing older KDY designs and other high-value assets. The company takes pride in combining heritage craftsmanship with modern innovation, ensuring its products meet the exacting standards of discerning customers across the galaxy.
With a foundation rooted in the illustrious legacy of Kuat Drive Yards and a vision firmly fixed on the future, Chempat Engineered Defenses strives to forge a new era of excellence in starship technology. Whether serving the needs of independent traders or bolstering the fleets of galactic governments, Chempat is dedicated to empowering its clients with superior products and unparalleled support.
