JSC Vympel Shipyard is a Russian shipbuilding company located in the city of Rybinsk, Yaroslavl Region. The enterprise is part of United Shipbuilding Corporation (USC).
It is a dynamically developing shipbuilding company specializing in the production of medium and low-tonnage sea and river vessels and boats for military and civil purposes from steel and aluminum-magnesium alloys. Products are supplied to the domestic market and for export.
At present, Vympel serially manufactures new-generation combat missile and patrol boats, high-speed search and rescue, firefighting, hydrographic, tug and other specialized vessels, providing warranty and service maintenance for its products.
Background
The company was founded in 1930 and initially specialized in the production of motor boats. During the Great Patriotic War, the plant produced long-range torpedo boats. These are the first large steel-hulled torpedo boats in the country.
After the end of the war, the enterprise carried out the construction of road minesweepers with a displacement of 100-300 tons and fire boats. In the 60s, marine hydrographic boats were produced, motor ships T-63M were in a large series.
In 1963, the first missile boat of Project 205 was commissioned. Over the next 12 years, 64 units were built. These boats, equipped with P-15 cruise missiles, have shown themselves vividly in local conflicts in the Middle East and the Indian Ocean and led to a boat boom in world shipbuilding.
In 1973, the head boat of the new Project 205ER was built at the plant. Within 12 years, 86 boats were produced, which were delivered to the countries of Europe, Asia, Africa and Latin America.
In 1980, the lead missile boat of Project 1241RE was commissioned. In the 80s, this boat was at the level of the best world standards in terms of its armament, and surpassed the best foreign models in terms of driving performance and power plant, but by the beginning of the 2000s it was very outdated, while retaining, however, significant opportunities for modernization.[1]
Over the long history, the plant has built more than 30 thousand boats of various types. For almost 40 years, the main products have been exported, during which time more than 1800 boats have been exported to 29 countries of the world.
