perhaps reading this company description might help. the agreement was between Pentax and Samsung Techwin Ltd, formerly known as Samsung Aerospace.

"Samsung Techwin Co., Ltd. manufactures optical and digital imaging
products and semiconductor equipment including leadframes, chip mounters, and wire bonders. The Company also produces a line of aircraft and industrial engines, howitzers, cannons, armored combat engineering
vehicles, and combat multi purposed excavators."

Thanks, Herb. So the Semtex name suggestion wasn't far off.

"Pentax -- for your adventurous moments."

"Pentax -- official camera of counterinsurgencies everywhere."
