state-owned defence enterprise in Mykolaiv

«Zoria»-«Mashproekt» is a state-owned strategic defence enterprise in Mykolaiv, a gas turbine research and production complex managed by the Ukroboronprom concern.

As of April 2026, the acting director is Oleksii Tsymbal, a former Mykolaiv city councillor from the «PR» party. In 2025 and 2026 the plant's workers repeatedly complained that their wages were delayed by a month or more. Four former general directors of the enterprise are to stand trial in a case over the theft of $71 million. Zoria is handing its kindergartens and the Alyi Parus children's holiday complex in Rybakivka over to the city.

MykVisti covers wages at the plant, appointments of its managers, criminal cases against former directors and the petrol station planned in the green area near Zoria, which prosecutors are challenging.
