MKB "Fakel" ((ロシア語:МКБ "Факел"), ''"Torch"'') also known as P.D.Grushin Machine-building Design Bureau is a Russian government-owned aerospace defense corporation located in Khimki. It was founded in 1953 to facilitate development of guided surface-to-air missiles in response to a growing threat of US air attack on the Soviet Union and its allies. MKB "Fakel" developed missiles which were used in Soviet surface-to-air defense systems S-75, 9K33 Osa, S-125, S-200, S-300, and many other systems. Missiles developed by MKB "Fakel" were the first in the world surface-to-air guided missiles successfully employed in military action. On May 1, 1960, American high altitude spy plane U-2 was shot down near Sverdlovsk by Fakel's 11D missile (S-75) while illegally flying over Soviet territory. Overall, missiles developed by MKB "Fakel" were employed in more than 30 countries, including Cuba, China, Vietnam and destroyed more than 2,500 of enemy aircraft.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url = http://weapon-site.chat.ru/other/s/shi_create_s-300.htm )〕 In July 1958 the corporation was awarded an Order of Lenin for successful development of guided missiles for the S-75 defense system. In April 1981 it was awarded an Order of the October Revolution for successful development of guided missiles for the S-300 defense system. Since 2002 joined Almaz-Antey. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「MKB Fakel」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
