Perm Motors Joint Stock Company (JSC), the founder of Perm motor constructors, was founded June 1, 1934 when an engine design and manufacturing factory was built at Perm Krai
, Russia
. The factory was originally known as OKB-19 - Soloviev, or the Soloviev Design Bureau.
The firm was headed by Arkady Dmitrievich Shvetsov from its foundation date in 1939. Starting in early 1950s the Company was headed by Pavel Alexandrovich Soloviev, Mr.Shvetsov's successor, and was engaged in development of new gas turbine engines. Since 1989, and up to June, 2001, with a break in 1995-1997, the enterprise was headed by Yuri Evgenievich Reshetnikov.
The first engine to be built at OKB-19 was a licensed variant of the Wright R-1820-F3
Cyclone 9, designated the Shvetsov M-25 radial engine. Other Shevtsoy designed piston engines produced at OKB-19 were the M-11
, M-71
ASh-2
, ASh-21, ASh-62
, ASh-73
and ASh-82
. In just four years OKB-19 was Russia's major manufacturer of aircraft engines.
During World War II the Plant exceeded its original design capacity by a factor of 12, producing more than 32,000 engines for Lavochkin La-5
, Sukhoi Su-2
and Tupolev Tu-2
s. In the 1950s the factory transitioned from piston engines to jet engines. The Plant has consolidated its positions and has become a regular partner and supplier of products for Tupolev
