Research Division (CSA)

The Research division's motto is "A company is only as good as its product line," and this division exists to ensure that the CSA remains well ahead of the competition. Working in tandem with research and marketing teams from sponsor corporations, Research designs and develops newer, better, more profitable products for the Authority and its members. Innovation is a valuable commodity and corporate espionage is a constant risk. Many of the division's projects are highly classified and conducted in secret. The experimental equipment and weapons produced by the Research division frequently pass through the Resources division to be dispersed to Espo squads for field testing.
