MacDonnell Thommen Dynamics is an Arcerion-based manufacturing company that specializes in military materiel, equipment, and ammunition. It is notable for the research, development, and sale of missile and rocket systems used as anti-tank weapons. It is located in Easthampton, Arcerion.

It dates back to the original MacDonnell Ironworks, a private ironworks that operated under the larger Arcerion Steel Corporation umbrella. After bankruptcy, it was acquired by Thommen Manufacturing, a company that had manufactured guns and other small arms for Arcerion during the Second Great War. Through research, development, and the creation of their own advanced sensor and electronics branch. By 2000, the company was manufacturing a wide range of products, notably machineguns, ammunition, and recoilless rifles. It has continued to innovate and serve as a cost-effective alternative for middle powers that do not purchase their weapons from traditional Levantine suppliers.
