Akvavit was a longstanding military electronics corporation based in northern Europe. In addition to being the world's leading Kojima technology company, Akva Vit produced top-of-the-line computing devices, sensors, and other electronics. Though offering weapons of impressive, cutting-edge functionality, their creations were designed for energy defense and PA effectiveness, thus having almost no armor and poor overall endurance. Akvavit had strong ties with Rayleonard, and also worked with GA Europe. They played a significant role in the events of the Lynx War.
History[]
Armored Core 4[]
They assisted GA Europe during their violent break with GA America at the start of the Lynx War, and subsequently joined Rayleonard in declaring war against the GA Group. Much like Rayleonard themselves, Akva Vit chose to stay in the background during the first phase of the Lynx War (Chapter 4 of AC4), before coming to the forefront during the second phase (Chapter 5). Of particular note was their attempt to attack GA's Sing colony with Sol Dios mobile platforms that were secretly built in cooperation with GA Europe. This attack ends up failing due to the joint intervention of Anatolia's Mercenary and Joshua O'Brien. After this, Akva Vit quickly buckles under pressure; their headquarters are destroyed by Joshua O'Brien at the same time Exavil, Rayleonard's headquarters, is destroyed by Anatolia's Mercenary.
Armored Core: For Answer[]
With help from the Interior Union, GAE was already stumbling towards resurrection. Having heard of the Union's plans, Akva Vit scientists started to appear, seeking employment. Knowing of their experience in the field of EN weaponry and Kojima research, the Union gave permission to allow parts of Akva Vit to be integrated in the GAE research team, on the condition that the company would only conduct minimal research in the field of laser weaponry.
Their designs soon forced a name change for the company as Akva Vit was constantly putting its mark on everything manufactured, and with the new High output booster systems being developed by Rayleonard remnants from Akva Vit, less than half of the company was composed of GAE parts. After several years of preparations, TORUS finally saw daylight, its name hinting of their technological power, endurance and unmatched experience in the Kojima field.

- All plasma weaponry in Armored Core: For Answer is built by Akva Vit. Additionally, several of the best FCS systems in both AC4 and AC:FA were built by Akva Vit though these have a tendency to be ineffective with missile weaponry.
