Aircraft Engine Scientific-Technical Complex "Union"

 

 

JSC AMNTK "Soyuz" (aircraft engine scientific and technical complex "Soyuz") is the oldest Russian plant in the field of design and production of aircraft engines.

 

History

 

The Soyuz aircraft engine scientific and technical complex was created according to the Decree of the State Defense Committee No. 2916 of 18.2.1943/118/25.2.1943. By order of the People's Commissariat of the Aviation Industry of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics No. 300 of XNUMX, the plant was named Experimental Plant No. XNUMX.

The plant was geographically located in Luzhniki on the banks of the Moscow River, on the site of the Orgaviaprom plant No. 8, which was moved to Kuibyshev (now Samara). The founder and the first director of the plant was A. A. Mikulin, who managed to convince the higher officials of the need to build the first experimental aircraft plant in the country "for, - as noted in the State Defense Committee Resolution, - supply of experimental and experimental design work for the production of aircraft engines." Mikulin was an outstanding organizer and designer.

He created a team that laid the foundation for the Soyuz technical and scientific school. B.S.Stechkin contributed a large share of the work to the creation of this school. strengthening of these design bureaus, which later became independent.

 

Complex Products

 

Under A.A. Mikulin, world-class turbojet engines were created at the AMNTK: for aircraft M-4, Tu-16, Tu-104 - AM-3, for Yak-25 - AM-5, AM-9 (RD-9B) - for MiG-19, AM-11 (R11-300) - for Mig-21, the fine-tuning of the engine took place under Tumansky S.K .. Later, engines were built for MiG-25 - R15B-300, subsonic cruise missiles - R95-300, for the Yak-141 - R79V-300 and so on.

All engines manufactured at the time of creation were the best in the world. In total, the enterprise has produced eighteen basic and forty-four variations of gas turbine engines. More than a hundred world records have been set on aircraft using these engines.

 

The modern complex

 

At present, work AESTC "Union" focuses on three main areas: the development of gas turbine drives for gas pumps and generators, design for aircraft jet engines and the development of additional power plants.

Also, the design of a presentation turbojet two-circuit engine R127D-300 for civilian use, which has a takeoff thrust of 890 kilograms and a gas turbine drive GTP-0,7-300 with a capacity of 700 kilowatts.

In addition, they produced various works on design support mass production and increase the functionality of the engine type R95-300. The work on power plant with a capacity of 30 and 0,3 megawatts.

 

Awards
