'''Weigel Armory and Munitions''' was a [[Rim Worlds Republic]] [[BattleMech]] manufacturer.

==Overview==
Weigel Armory and Munitions was created by [[Stefan Gorienko]] as part of a broader effort to secretly expand the Rim Worlds Republic's military industry. Its three production lines could be converted to produce a wide variety of designs, but primarily built [[Rampage|Rampages]], [[Whitworth|Whitworths]] and [[Stinger|Stingers]] due to these designs being staples of the Rim Worlds military. Weigel's factory was built half a kilometer underneath [[Kwangjong-ni]]'s Lost Sea, which it used as both a power source and a way to disguise its heat signature. Off-world workers lived inside the plant full time, minimizing risk of word getting out. A series of tunnels connected the plant to the nearby Britton mountains, where the Republic's main planetary garrison was located. This allowed mechs and ammunition produced in the plant to be quietly added to [[Rim Worlds Army]] units prior to their rotation off world. These security measures allowed the plant to escape detection by the [[Star League Defense Force]] until the outbreak of the [[Amaris Civil War]].<ref name=S19>''Shrapnel Issue 19'', pp. 75-79: "Planet Digest: Kwangjong-ni"</ref>

Access to the factory on [[Kwangjong-ni]] was destroyed in [[2767]] by Republic holdouts during the [[Operation ALMARIC]] in order to keep the plant out of Lyran hands. This halted production of the ''Rampage'' [[BattleMech]].<ref name=ISP2p128>''Jihad Conspiracies: Interstellar Players 2'', p. 128: "Produced Rampage 'Mech components"</ref><ref name=TRO:SWp162>''Technical Readout: Succession Wars'', p. 162: "RMP-5G Rampage"</ref><ref name=S19/>

Weigel's defunct factory was discovered by lostech prospectors in [[3062]]. It was purchased and restored to function by [[Defiance Industries]].<ref name=S19/>
