History

The history of Sukhoi Company dates back October 1930, when aircraft designer Pavel Sukhoi led the team #4 of TsAGI AGOS aviation. It was at that point when the team of the future Design Bureau started to take shape.

Education Day of Sukhoi Design Bureau believed July 29, 1939 when the people's commissariat of aircraft industry made a decision about the transfer of the number of the experimental design bureaus into the series plants for the purpose of rendering effective assistance in accelerating of aircraft series production. With this purpose, together with the team of the Design Bureau, which had been given a standalone status, P.O. Sukhoi was relocated to production aircraft plant #135 in Kharkov. At that time the series output of multi-role short-range bomber BB-1 (after 1940 known as the Su-2) was set up in that city.

In 1940 the staff of Sukhoi Design Bureau moved back to Moscow and its own productive capacity they received March 5, 1940, when on the base of DB-29 (st. Podlipki, Moscow region) was organized the plant of experimental aircraft construction – Plant of #289. P.O. Sukhoi appointed chief constructor of the plant.

In October 1941 Plant #289 was evacuated to Perm, and on return to Moscow in September 1943 it was arranged on the territory of the factory #464 in Tushino. In 1946 Sukhoi Design Bureau moved into the building of DB Ermolaev, but manufacturing base remained in Tushino.

In November 14, 1949 a government's resolution scrapped the Sukhoi Design Bureau, not to be resurrected till May 1953 as experimental-design bureau (EDB-1 MAP), when it was set up with new production facilities. Thus, in October 1953 the branch of the plant #155 MAP (former plant #51 MAP) was transmitted to EDB-1 MAP and on 15 January, 1954 EDB-1 MAP was appropriated designation – “The State Experimental Plant #51 MAP” (EDB-1 MAP).

In 1966 “The State Experimental Plant #51 MAP” received a new name – “The Moscow Machine-Building Plant “Kulon” (MP “Kulon”). In July 1976 Design Bureau and the plant was named after P.O. Sukhoi. In August 1992, the plant was renamed as The Aircraft Research Complex “OKB Sukhoi” (ASPC “OKB Sukhoi”). After privatization in 1996 it began to be called SCOT “Sukhoi OKB”.

After the death of P.O. Sukhoi in 1975 the Design Bureau was led by his substitute member Evgeniy A. Ivanov (from the 1977 – chief constructor). In 1976, the Design Bureau and the plant was named after P.O. Sukhoi. In January 1983, the Design Bureau headed Mikhail P. Simonov. And from May 1999 to July 2007 the general manager was Mikhail A. Pogosian.

For more than 75-year history of Sukhoi Design Bureau it was created some 100 types of aircraft and their modifications with more than 60 types serially produced. The total number of series-produced aircraft exceeds 10 000. Over 2 000 of them have delivered to 30 countries around the world. More than 50 world records are established at planes “Su”.
