Company history 1901 - 2000
Vyrdan Ocelárny a Strojírenství a.s, the now Vyrdakov a.s was founded in May 1901 in Orlobem, by Jeroným Válek in order take on a contract that Rynowice Výrobní could not fulfil, the funds would allow the acquisition of Orlobem Puška Továrna thrusting Vyrdan Ocelárny a Strojírenství a.s into the arms industry.

In 1919, Vyrdan Ocelárny a Strojírenství a.s received their first series of military contracts, producing rifles and other weapons for the Modrovian army in preparation for the Curgov Campaign which was to be carried out the year later. During this time, Vyrdan Ocelárny a Strojírenství a.s had expanded also expanded their automotive manufacturing through vehicle sales to the Modrovian army, acquiring Strojní Zařízení Břetislav and Strojní Zařízení Kalishma two major government owned factories and later becoming the first producers of armoured vehicles in Modrovia.

After the Grand Campaigns, the Modrovian government bought out a majority of shares, turning it into a partially government owned corporation in 1927. Later in 1931 Vyrdan Ocelárny a Strojírenství bought out Gustav Ocelárny a.s, and renamed into Vyrdakov a.s abandoning its extended name and instead shortening into the words "Vyrdan" and "Kov" - the name of the river that passes by Orlobem, and the Heltic word for metal respectively. The Modrovian government would continue to be the largest client for the company, with Vyrdakov a.s producing a large portion of equipment for the Modrovian Army, and it would continue to expand buying out more subsidiaries and expanding both their Automotive and Defense divisions.

In 1996, Vyrdakov a.s made moves to acquire Ludvík Vojenská vozidla a.s. Ludvík Vojenská vozidla a.s was a light vehicles manufacturer allowing Vyrdakov to enter the light vehicles industry and begin taking the Modrovian governments light vehicles contracts, officially making Vyrdakov a.s one of two Modrovian manufacturers of land warfare systems, the other being Modrová zbrojovka Kralove a.s, Modrovia's small arms and artillery manufacturer.
