History
In a short time SKBTM staff mastered series production and delivery of the trainers for operators of anti-tank, tank and air-defense guided missile systems. Alongside with that, there was developed a new line of activity – design of equipment for radio-electronic, radio and television control systems, microelectronics. In 1974, in connection with widening of the design bureau work areas, its staff increase, need of in-house pilot production, SKBTM was removed from the Tula precision machinery plant structure and reorganized into Central Design Bureau of Apparatus Engineering.
In the second half of 1990s, in the period of economic reforms which was the most difficult period for all the defense companies, CDBAE not only survived and retained its scientific and technological potential, but also created unified computer simulators for training operators of modern precision weapon systems. From 1998 to 2006, this made it possible to supply the RF Armed Forces with 17 unified trainers based on modern computer-aided technologies, е.g., for the Metis, the Konkurs, and the Kornet AT guided missile systems.
Within the frame of the Pantsir project implementation, CDBAE was tasked to develop and manufacture transmitting and receiving systems, antenna array monopulse feed, switching unit providing connection of transmitting and receiving systems with other systems of combat vehicle, and Doppler-shifted signals retransmission device, which fulfils a function of a target imitator during radar aligning and adjusting.
In pursuance of the contract with the KBP Instrument Design Bureau in 2008-2012, classroom and mobile simulators for training crews of the Pantsir-S1 air-defense missile-gun system, of the Krasnopol and the Berezhok guided weapon systems were developed by the enterprise and delivered to foreign customers. In 2010 CDBAE, JSC started creating a target locator radar module for the Pantsir-S1 air-defense missile-gun system. At the present time the radar module is series-produced. In 2011 the enterprise started developing a number of simulators to equip the first in the country brigade combat centre. The set of the centre training aids comprises training simulators for armoured vehicle crews, the Krasnopol guided weapon system crews, the Kornet and the Shturm AT guided missile systems operators, RPO-A flame-thrower operators and others. Within the radar line of activity the enterprise carried out topical works in designing and manufacturing surveillance radar for protection systems of high security state objects. At the present time, these radars are operated as components of radar security systems at a number of the RF nuclear power plants.
