JSC NPO Basalt

JSC NPO Basalt is a Russian ammunition manufacturer associated with the Bazalt scientific-production organization in Moscow. Public sources describe Bazalt as a full-cycle enterprise for aerial bombs, mortar ammunition, grenade-launcher systems, hand grenades, and related naval anti-saboteur munitions, with current corporate links to the Russian state-owned Rostec industrial structure.

The organization traces its specialized ammunition lineage to 21 April 1938, when State Union Design Bureau No. 47 was formed to develop aircraft-bomb munitions. Later public descriptions present AO NPO Bazalt as a full-cycle producer whose work runs from research and development through serial production and disposal of munitions for Russia's ground forces, aerospace forces, and navy.

The JSC NPO Basalt label is most directly tied here to heavy free-fall bomb bodies and glide-bomb adaptations. Publicly sourced systems include FAB-1500M-54 and FAB-3000M-46 general-purpose bombs; broader source material also links the Bazalt organization to UMPK-equipped FAB-family bombs, the RPG-30 Kryuk anti-tank grenade launcher, the PBK-500U Drel glide bomb, mortar ammunition, and hand grenades.
