Kuat Systems Engineering, or KSE, was a short-lived subsidiary of Kuat Drive Yards created in the waning days of the Galactic Republic.
History[]
Kuat Systems Engineering was established towards the end of the reign of the Galactic Republic as a subsidiary of Kuat Drive Yards.[1] The company produced a few well-designed but poorly marketed starships, including the CloakShape fighter, the Wayfarer-class medium transport and the Firespray-31-class patrol and attack craft. The company's lack of commericial success was its downfall. Kuat Systems Engineering was reorganized back under the Kuat Drive Yards company banner and dedicated solely to the after-market starship upgrade kit market.[1]
Shortly after the Battle of Endor, KSE was sold off to a group of Imperial loyalists. It was later revealed that the loyalists were really Vaathkree merchants with strong ties to the New Republic.[1] At this time, KSE products were costly.[2]
