TetraCorp is the manufacture of the power armor use in that game

Fact is of course we don't know how TetraCorp relates to TriOp in 2014.
The canonical opinion among fans seems to be they were bought. That's what I referenced in my earlier answer.

Also, developed is not the same as manufactured.

« on: 10. May 2007, 14:00:19 »In SS1's handbook there's a note about a manager who defected to TriOp, so at least then the companies were competitors.
In SS2's first cutscene the news man says that the systems on board the VB are "nearly all developed by TriOptimum and it's wholly owned subsidiaries".
These points led many to believe that TetraCorp was bought by TriOp. I'm not aware of any airtight prove for this though.

It might have bee cheaper for TriOp to buy the keypads from TetraCorp rather than design their own?
