History
The organization was founded in 1959 on the basis of the student experimental design bureau of the Kazan Aviation Institute and the Kazan Aviation Plant No. 22 named after S. P. Gorbunov , and initially - until 1982 - was called the "Experimental Design Bureau of Sports Aviation", then - until 2014 - OJSC "Experimental Design Bureau" Sokol "" [2] . The first ten years of the enterprise’s activity were devoted to the development and production of KAI-11 , KAI-12 , KAI-14 , KAI-19 , SA-9 , SA-7U , SA-8T gliders . In the mid 60's. A full-scale model of the Soyuz lander was made with a set of equipment. In 1969, the development and production of M-19 target aircraft began; in 1970, the production of M-17 targets. Since the 1970s, aviation targets have become the main profile of the enterprise. Since 1978, serial production of the upgraded version of the M-17M target, M-17MM, has been launched. The glider was modified, strength and aerodynamic studies of the original design were carried out due to the installation of a more powerful R-11K-300 engine . Since 1981, the production of the M-21 target aircraft began; in 1982, the production of the M-29 target. On the basis of the double-seat ATS Aero L-29 Delfin TCB, a VKP-3 command post for controlling targets in the air was developed, and a similar VKP-5 command post on the basis of the MiG-23UB . In 1987, the Comet target complex with aircraft Su-7U and Su-25B towing aircraft was launched into the series. The complex allowed towing a target on a cable up to 8 km long at a speed of 720 km / h. The Comet target was equipped with a radio link, an acoustic miss registration system, tracers , and the towing vehicle was equipped with a turbo-winch operating from the oncoming flow. In the 1990s, the Design Bureau developed the “Tribute” air target complex, which simulates tactical aircraft and Tomahawk-style cruise missiles . [3] [4] The OKB created an integrated monitoring system for Danem . [5] Since 2014, the development of a heavy UAV has been underway to solve combat missions in the Arctic and monitor the Northern Sea Route . [6]
