cyberpunk 2077 corporate agent

Militech is one of the biggest MegaCorporations in Cyberpunk 2077. Today we are going to be looking at it’s history, how it came to power, key people involved, what they actually do and how they operate in Night City arming and supporting assassins, mercenaries and even full scale military operations. Welcome to Cyberpunk 2077 – Militech Explained!
What we’ve seen thus far from Militech in trailers or the demo is the Militech Crusher, Armored Vehicle, Meredith stout and her surveillance drone, and
Militech International Armaments is a megacorporation valued at 432 billion Eurodollars and specializing in weapons manufacturing and private military contracting. They are the largest weapons manufacturer in the world, and their catalogue of gear, arms and equipment are used by hundreds of nations in departments such as mercenary divisions, assassinations, corporate security and full scale military operations.
Based out of the Eastern US and working closely with police and military forces they have substantially contributed to civilian security systems. They manufacture high grade military tech from simple firearms to heavily armored combat vehicles.
Initially founded as Armatech-Lucessi International by Italian Weapons designer Antonio Luccessi in 1996, Militech didn’t find its footing until 1998 with the trials for a new US infantry assault weapon. The US Government was recovering from bankruptcy during this time, and began the process to replace outdated weapons tech in the M-16A2 rifle. The trials came down to 3 competitors looking to become the new standard issue rifle for the government. The FN SAP, a cheap but clunky and unreliable weapon that allowed the US to maintain low costs, the Colt AR-17X a good but expensive gun, and a submission by Armatech-Lucessi, a compact, reliable and moderately priced rifle.
A member of the joint trial General Donald Lundee lobbied for the Armatech-Lucessi weapon, but due to a further collapse of the economy and a tightening of the budget the government picked up the FN SAP for their standard issue.
Now 6 years later in the second south American conflict, in the jungles of central and south America these unreliable SAP rifles unsuited for tropical climates led to many deaths of US soldiers.
Lundee observed this from afar, and having resigned from the marine corps and taken a comfy seat as CEO of armatech at the request of Luccessi he began to formulate a re-haul of the system and saw th need for an efficient military manufacturer producing high quality equipment. During this time of growth, the company was rebranded to Militech Arms International.
Their first success was in 2004 after a disastrous Central American War where the US finally scrapped the SAP and began new trials for a new standard weapon. The final choice was Militechs Ronin Light Assault Rifle and they soon won the military side arm contract. At the same time this is where Militech expanded their catalogue which included heavy weapons, artillery, and vehicles and aircraft systems. As a more established contractor, they took advantage of yet another economic collapse to buy up competitors to utilize their designers and resources and this is how they came to be so dominant.
Some notable people during this time include Roland Yee, current chairman of the board and one of the original investors in Armatech
We also have Margaret Ellen Goldstein one of the original investors and one time lover of CEO Donald Lundee
Mils Engelsson – vice president and director of the special projects division and known as Dr Death for his unethical and horrifying experiments, and Meredith stout who is a senior operations manager working for Militech in the year 2077, who we see in the demo.

Corporations are giant, multinational companies that dominate the world of Cyberpunk and Night City. They can range from simple media corporations, to agriculture corps to service and computing corps to worldwide security firms, and they will kill anyone and anything that stands in their way.

They operate 24/7, buying, selling or providing services to many around the world. Unlike businesses today, megacorporations in the Cyberpunk landscape are cutthroat and violence is actually a common occurrence within corporations as a way to work yourself up the ladder.

Blackmail, extortion, bribery, kidnapping and assassination are common place in Night City’s white collar world. Successful corporations don’t act above the law, because they are the Law.

As a Corpo, you always have to watch your back and many are highly paranoid of losing their place by those trailing them on the ladder.

The power structure is so that the CEO and president are at the top of the food chain with high level executives right under. You will typically see a power struggle and infighting amongst management, and lower leveled executives trying to work their way up in the world via dishonesty, manipulation and by blindsiding those around them.

There are many types of Corporations. Mediacorps are giant conglomerates that control the airwaves across the world. It is suspected many of the larger media corps have deep ties to the government.

Network news 54 is a 24 hour news station originating in the United States, and World News Service is a 24 hour news service across the world.

Agricorps were started as smaller family farms. After the world market collapse however, many farms were boarded up and their huge segments of land became barren from neglect. The larger farms survived the collapse and thus had more leverage with the smaller guys out of the way and started to buy up fertile land. By 2020 65% of farmland in the US was owned by corporations producing CHOOH2 a biofuel of the future.

Petrochem are the largest producer of CHOOH2. SovOil also produces Chooh2, but their product is inferior to SovOil.

Manufacturing corporations were least affected by the collapse. They range from producing vehicles to childrens toys.

Militech, who was formerly ArmaTech-Luccessi is a military arms giant.

Arasaka is a secutirities corp and a rival of militechs. EBM is a computer hardware manufacturer, and IEC manufacturers smaller components such as computer chips and hardware.

In the world of Cyberpunk almost everything revolves around a computer of some sort. Through Advanced tech and the emergence of the Net, Computing corporations have a firm grasp on the world of Night City.

Zetatech is a silicon valley software development corporation. Microtech creates workstation computers and IEC is the world largest cybernetics developer. Science is also at the forefront of the world and have their hands in everything from bioware, to cybernetics, to human clones and biofuels. Biotechnica, was the corporation that developed CHOOH2 but licensed it out as they didn’t have the resources to produce it.

In the world of Cyberpubnk crime is widespread, the modern police force is largely ineffective and securiry companies are as lethal as nations armies.

Security teams are a cohesive unit and deploy a small arsenal in response to anything suspect in Night City. Arasaka and Militech are heavily invested in this space and are some of the biggest players in Night City because of it. Lazarus is also in this pool of corps as they contract mercenaries and are led by South American war veterans.

Lastly we have service megacorporations. This includes trauma team international, specialized paramedics that will go through any means to assist an injured client, REO Meatwagon, who is like TT but only deals with deceased patients and Orbital air a commercial space transport.

There is also Infocomp, which is an information brokerage that uses private detectives to dig up dirt for a client and Meril, Asukaga and Finch an investment firm.
