Vault-Tec

Vault-Tec is a fictional organization from the Fallout universe, depicted as a corporation that designed and built underground shelters called vaults. Promoted as precautions against nuclear war, these vaults were intended to protect people, but many were actually experiments testing human behavior and societal structures under controlled or extreme conditions. In the real world, Vault-Tec symbolizes the secrecy and ethical questioning of organizations conducting covert experiments on civilians, especially in post-apocalyptic settings.
