'''Ioto Galactic Enterprises''' was a JumpShip manufacturer in the [[Lyran Commonwealth]].

==Overview==
The Lyran Commonwealth attracted the attention of [[Di Tron Heavy Industries]] shortly after initiating the first forays into design and construction in [[2371]];<ref name="FR2765:LCAFp23A"/> DiTron was already a successful [[WarShip]] manufacturer, with the ''[[Dart (WarShip class)|Dart]]''-class light cruiser in production and the ''[[Aegis (WarShip class)|Aegis]]''-class heavy cruiser due to enter production in [[2372]].<ref name="FR2765:LCAFp23"/><ref>''[http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/3670/ MUL online date for the ''Aegis'']''</ref> Di Tron Heavy Industries had the know-how and experience, and businessmen in the Lyran Commonwealth had a firm grasp of financial chicanery. Avoiding the legalities of the restrictions the [[Terran Hegemony]] imposed on the sale of restricted technologies by DiTron, two months of financial artifice by the Lyrans led to the founding of a new company, Ioto Galactic Enterprises. Three years later the first ''Commonwealth''-class light cruisers emerged from the '''Port Sydney Naval Shipyards'''.<ref name="FR2765:LCAFp23"/>

The Port Sydney Naval Shipyards located in the [[Alarion]] system was the only Di Tron manufacturing center to survive the fall of the [[Star League]], though not unscathed. Raids during the [[Second Succession War]] saw its [[Jump Drive]] facilities crippled, preventing the creation of compact jump drives necessary for [[WarShip]] production. The [[Clan Invasion]] spurred [[House Steiner]] to pump fresh resources into the company and, in a joint venture with [[Bowie Industries]], begin producing WarShips again with the creation of the ''[[Mjolnir (WarShip class)|Mjolnir]]''-class. The company remained profitable after the [[FedCom Civil War]], and its shipyards remain important and essential for the Lyrans to repair their military products and components on the shipyard.<ref name=H:HSp143/><ref name=OR78>''Objective Raids'', p. 78: "Ioto Galactic Enterprises on Alarion Profile"</ref>

The [[Word of Blake]] struck at Alarion early in the [[Jihad]], destroying the shipyards there and using a powerful bioweapon to annihilate the population of the planet. As a result, the Ioto Galactica Enterprises facility on Gibbs became a hugely important facility for the [[Lyran Alliance]], as it was the only facility capable of maintaining the Alliance's reduced WarShip fleet as well as the sole JumpShip production shipyard in the Alliance.<ref name="J:FRp85A">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 85: "Alarion (Buena) Province"</ref>

The Gibbs facility escaped any damage during the Jihad.<ref name=O:LAp3>''Objectives: Lyran Alliance'', p. 3: "State of the Industry at a Glance (Dec 3079)"</ref> After the Jihad ended, the Gibbs facility was the only Lyran shipyard that could produce the [[K-F Drive]]s needed by [[JumpShip]]s.<ref name=O:LAp24>''Objectives: Lyran Alliance'', p. 24: "Ioto Galactic Enterprises"</ref>
