The Research & Production Complex «Photoprylad» is a leading high-tech enterprise functioning to meet the needs of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, public health system, state institutions and organizations, specializing in development, design and production of optoelectronic devices and special-purpose equipment.
History
«Photoprylad» was founded in 1962 within the site of artel “Pobeda”. Kurbanov A. was the founder and first general director.
1965 special design bureau was created, headed by Petrov I. and chief constructor Krivorotiy A.
Beginning of 1970-1972 Photoprylad took the leading part in design and producing devices for chemical-photographic processing, drying and interpretation of aerophotomaterials. Such important space-oriented devices as «Svet», «Raccord», «Topaz» and others were developed and produced here. The first device constructors developed was interpretation marching kit PKD-1, second one – device for washing photoprints PPO-1.
1972 development and producing precise mechanics devices was initiated, also optical mechanical, optical-electronic oriented (gyrocompass 1G-25 for determining true azimuth mounted on artillery 1V12 complex.
1974 Central design bureau «Sokol» was created as an individual organization. Chief constructor of CDB «Sokol» was Ablyazov R.
1974-1976 serial production of separate units and control equipment 9S475 started. It was mounted on MI-24 helicopter.
1978 CDB «Sokol» designed optical device for surveillance «IRIS». It was successfully tested with MI-24K helicopter.
In the beginning of 1980 production of criminology devices was introduced. They are MC-1 microscope and REUS-1 reproduction installation.
1990 «Photoprylad» started to produce medical equipment. These are ophthalmological devices «Stimul», «Alkor», FK-30.
1994 Research and production complex «Photoprylad» was created based on «Photoprylad» and CDB «Sokol». 1995 «Strela» special design bureau became a part of R&PC.
1996 R&PC «Photoprylad» started producing tank sighting systems using laser and microscopic techniques.
Since 2011 the R&PC «Photoprylad» has been included into the State Concern «Ukrboronprom»[1]
Nowadays R&PC «Photoprylad» considered as modern complex including design bureau «Sokol» and special design bureau «Strela». 2012-2014 R&PC «Photoprylad» was headed by Gordiienko V. (chief constructor). Since the end of 2014 he was replaced by Korevo G. (ex-general director of Izium State-Owned Instrument-Making Plant,[2]) . R&PC «Photoprylad» is situated on 2 large industrial sites of 210 thousand square meters and about 1000 employees. R&PC cooperates with Eastern and European countries. 20 October 2014 President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko informed that R&PC «Photoprylad» included into program[3] of state order during 2015, producing night vision googles and thermal imagers for ATO soldiers.
