Success in scientific and applied space research has been our country's great achievement. We ought to be proud of these successes and cherish them because they are not only prestigious scientific achievements and progress but also the guarantee of our country's strategic defense.

The Khrunichev State Research and Production Space Center was create Russian Federation Presidential Decree of June 7, 1993. The Center consists of two of largest Russian producers of aviation and rocket and space technology- the Khrunichev Machine-building plant and the "Salyut" Design Bureau. The last years have shown this kind of cooperation to be valuable. The efficiency of the Space Center's activities increased and Russian space technologies have penetrated the world market more deeply.

The history of our enterprise is the history of the establishment and development of Russian strategic aviation and intercontinental ballistic missiles, advanced space technology, launch vehicles and orbital stations "Salyut", "Mir", space modules "Kvant", "Kvant-2", "Kristall", "Spectr", "Priroda" and "Zarya", the first module of ISS.

It is also the history of new technology development, the expansion on the commercial launch market, participation in the realization of international programs and, most important, the preservation and the strengthening of leading positions in Space development.

Participation in the creation of the International space station and the global satellite communication system "Iridium", contracts on commercial launches, the creation of the middle class launcher "Rokot" and LV family "Angara" -this is an incomplete list of enterprise's present activities.

The scientific potential, dynamic development and production quality of Khrunichev State Space Center make it possible to offer a wide range of competitive products and services which correspond to the standards of the world market. However the Space Center management believes that only partner consolidation and mutually beneficial cooperation in space development can produce good results.

"Cooperation for success" is the Khrunichev State Space center's motto.
