State Research and Production Enterprise Bazalt

The Corporation as an integrated structure was formed on the basis of a reorganized federal state unitary enterprise “State research and production centre “Zvezda-Strela” (Korolev) in “Tactical Missiles Corporation”JSC. During such reorganization process the Corporation received shares from enterprises included in Defense Industry Complex. Establishment registration of the Corporation was finished in March 2003.
Strategic targets which lead to the Corporation establishment consisted in keeping and developing of missilery’s research and production capacity, supplying national defense capability, resource mobilization needed for highly effective guided missiles and air-based, ground-based, sea-based weapon systems production, also in strengthening military positions of Russia in world armament market.
The head enterprise of the Corporation manufacture high speed airborne guided missiles such as Kh-31 in the form of anti-radar Kh-31P (Kh-31PK) missile and anti-ship Kh-31A missile; Kh-35E anti-ship guided missile unified under different launch platforms (ship, coast, air):
GosMKB “Vympel” named after I.I.Toropov manufactures air guided missiles of air-to-air type, comprising R-73E(R-73EL) small-range guided missile for a close-in dogfight; RVV-AE, R-27R1 (R-27ER1), R-27T1 (R-27ET1), R-27P(R-27EP) medium range guided missiles; R-33E long-range guided missile. Besides, the enterprise manufactures guided missiles of air-to-surface type and guided missiles for terrestrial and marine air-defense systems and imitating them target missiles.
Together with guided missiles,  GosMKB “Vympel” manufactures passive jamming sets for aircrafts and UV-30MK helicopters and special support equipment, such as rail and ejection launchers, beam and cluster holders, manufactured for suspension, transportation and forced release almost of all types of air-bombs, blocks and nacelles for small arms and projectiles,  lifting devices with lock.
GosMKB “Raduga” named after A.Y.Bereznyak manufactures guided missiles of air-to-surface type among which the most popular are:
“Ovod-ME” missile system with guided missile Kh-59ME; Kh-59MK long-range flight guided missile and also Kh-58E air-anti-radar guided missile.
GNPP “Region” manufactures smart air bombs and guided air bombs with different guidance systems.
Russian naval ships as well as foreign ships now days use the following missile systems:
“Moskit-E” anti-ship attack and defensive missile systems with high speed anti-ship guided missiles 3M-80E (“Raduga”);
“Uran-E” shipborne missile system with 3M-24E anti-ship missiles (the head enterprise)
“Bal-E” mobile coastal missile system with anti-ship 3М-24E missiles (Machine-Building Design Bureau). Machine-Building Design Bureau also specialize in development of torpedoes for ships and decoy dispensing systems.
Alongside with military products, the enterprises included in the Corporation produce a great variety of civil and dual-use products:
power plants for emergency rescue systems of the rocket and space complex’ crew team, soft landing engines for manned spaceships, solid-fuel gas generators for space and aviation equipment and also mobile fire extinguishing installations (MKB “Iskra”). Low-thrust rockets and power plants for space flying vehicles (TMKB “Soyuz”);
training aircrafts, light multi-purpose aircrafts and pilotless aircrafts (“Smolensk Aircraft Plant”). Night lighting facilities and night vision goggles for the helicopters’ crew (“Azov Optomechanical Plant”). Airdrome, ground equipment and accessories (“Gorizont”);
elements of hydro-vacuum waste disposal system for Tu-204/214 aircrafts and their modifications (the core enterprise);
gas safety automation facilities, equipment for nuclear power stations (“Krasny Gidropress”). Household gas heating equipment (Torgovi Dom “Zvezda-Strela”);
wind energy installations of broad power range which work autonomously or in a system and also able to work in combination with diesel-power, gas turbine or solar power generators (GosMKB”Raduga”);
medical devices, electrical and electronic systems, special equipment for fuel and energy industry, automated water purification systems, TV satellite broadcasting transmitters-receivers ("Central Design Bureau for Automatics Engineering”);
communication and test facilities for railway transport and machine-building industry (UPKB “Detal”), etc.
