Monac shipyards.
The Monac shipyards were Cardassian ship building facilities located near Monac IV in the Monac star system.
In 2349, Elias Vaughn and Ruriko Tenmei introduced Cren Veruda's countermeasure to the artificial intelligence Veruda had designed into the Cardassian Union's computer grid at the Monac shipbuilding facility. (DS9 novel: Lesser Evil)
In 2375, during the Dominion War, the Klingons attacked the Monac shipyards. They failed to destroy the shipyards and suffered casualties of thirty percent when they were engaged by the Dominion. (DS9 episode: "Image in the Sand")
Later, Martok, Worf and Miles O'Brien formulated a plan to destroy the shipyards using an electromagnetic pulse from the IKS Rotarran that would, if accurately targeted, would start a solar plasma ejection that would incinerate the yards. Their first attempt to start a flare did not work, although their second was successful and the Monac shipyards were immolated by the plasma ejection from the star. Worf dedicated the attack to Jadzia Dax's memory, believing the firestorm would illuminate the gates of Sto-vo-kor and give her a fitting welcome. (DS9 episode: "Shadows and Symbols")
Many Dominion and Cardassian ships in construction, including several Galor-class starships, were destroyed, derailing Weyoun and Damar's plans to increase production of ships that were to be used to retake Chin'toka. (DS9 episode: "Shadows and Symbols")
