No. 9 Uralmashzavod is the historic plant name that appears in older references for the Yekaterinburg artillery producer later recorded publicly as Plant No. 9 / Zavod No. 9. Sanctions and reference databases place the entity at 1-I Pyatiletki Square and connect it to artillery-gun production.

For this catalog, the profile anchors the catalog's D-44 entry and gives context for the broader Soviet and Russian barrel-artillery line associated with the Uralmash industrial base.

Its modern record is mostly residual-use evidence: Russia drew D-1 guns from stocks during the full-scale phase of the 2014 Russia-Ukraine War, while open loss records tie the same World War II-era system to Armenian/Artsakh equipment in 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh and Syrian government artillery losses in the 2011 Syrian Civil War.
