Kuat Drive Yards or KDY was the largest military shipbuilding corporation in the Galaxy at the time of the Galactic Civil War, based on Kuat.
Kuat Drive Yards mainly sold its products to the Galactic Empire, and the Galactic Republic previously. Many Kuat products could be found in TIE Fighters, armored fighting vehicles such as AT-STs and AT-ATs, Star Destroyers, and other military vehicles. Kuat Drive Yards did not sell only to the Imperials, however. Many planetary governments purchased its weapons for the purposes of defending their planet from the war.
KDY consists of a shipyard that forms a ring around the planet of Kuat, with its massive construction power selling to the Empire during the bulk of the Galactic Civil War.
Empire at War[]
In Star Wars: Empire at War, KDY is seen as a ring of shipyards around Kuat. It is one of the four planets that the player can manufacture Star Destroyers and Mon Calamari Cruisers.
