History

edit

Tactical Missiles Corporation was founded on the basis of Zvezda-Strela by the Decree of Russian President №84, signed on January 24, 2002.

Zvezda-Strela was a major designer and producer of military missile systems, and included the Zvezda Experimental Design Bureau (OKB), a serial production design bureau (SKB), the main Strela plant, and machine building plants in Kostroma and Bendery Moldova. It was formerly part of the missile-industry grouping Spetstekhnika (Special Equipment).[4]

The structure of Tactical Missiles Corporation was expanded by subsequent decrees №591 on May 9, 2004 and №930 on July 20, 2007.

The holding is sanctioned by New Zealand in relation to the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine.[5]

It was reported in September 2023 that the company had doubled the production of high precision weapons over the past six months.[6] It was also reported in January 2024 that since February 2022 the company had increased the production of the most demanded high-precision weapons by 5 times.[7]
