Tashkent Mechanical Plant

What Tashkent Mechanical Plant does

JSC Tashkent Mechanical Plant (Акционерное Общество «Ташкентский Механический Завод», JSC TMZ) is a state-owned Uzbek industrial manufacturer headquartered at 100016 Tashkent, ul. Elbek 61, with additional production facilities in Fergana and Andijan. The company traces its origins to a 1932 aviation repair workshop in Khimki (Moscow region) that was evacuated to Tashkent during World War II in November 1941 and operated for decades as TAPOich (Tashkent Aviation Production Association named after V.P. Chkalov), producing WWII-era fighters and transports, the Il-14, An-8, An-12, the An-22 "Antey," and approximately 1,000 Il-76 aircraft of all modifications since 1973. After bankruptcy proceedings from 2010 to 2013 and external management, the enterprise was renamed Open Joint Stock Company Tashkent Mechanical Plant in December 2013 and absorbed into SJSRC Uzbekistan Railways on May 1, 2015 under Presidential Decree PP-2341, shifting its center of gravity from aviation-only to diversified mechanical manufacturing.

The current product portfolio spans seven categories: aviation products (Il-76 and Il-114 manufacturing, repair, and modification including PS-90 engine conversion), railway spare parts for locomotives and freight/passenger wagons, GOST-standard hardware (metiz: bolts, nuts, self-tapping screws), industrial tools (wrenches, taps, drills, lathe cutters, screwdrivers, hammers, toolboxes), rubber technical products (cuffs, gaskets, seals, sealing rings), oil-and-gas and fire-service equipment (fan impellers, breathing valves, high-pressure hoses, fire carbines, connecting heads), and consumer goods (stainless steel kitchenware, plastic buckets and bowls, children's sledges, garden ladders, door locks, garden furniture). The enterprise holds ISO 9001 certification (issued March 28, 2005 by the Interstate Aviation Committee) covering aircraft construction, repair, and maintenance of Il-76, Il-114, and all modifications.

TMZ operates as a B2B industrial enterprise with quote-based direct sales and no e-commerce or self-serve channel. Customers are concentrated in Uzbekistani state entities — Ministry of Defense, Ministry of Internal Affairs, NAK Uzbekistan Airways, and the parent SJSRC Uzbekistan Railways — supplemented by episodic international aircraft deliveries to the Indian Air Force, Jordanian Armed Forces, Silk Way Airlines (Azerbaijan), Volga-Dnepr Group, and ESCA Aviation (Panama). Manufacturing partners include OAO Ilyushin Aviation Complex (core, technical documentation and co-development), CJSC NPP Sfera (engine conversion), and Volga-Dnepr-Leasing. Revenue model is overwhelmingly hardware sales across all product lines plus contract manufacturing for defense orders; pricing is not publicly disclosed and all engagement is by phone, email, or online reception form. A 2015-launched investment program covers 38 projects with a total planned value of USD 394.85 million (USD 261 million foreign investment) spanning railway, electrical, automotive, and consumer-goods lines, with a target of 2,400 new jobs.
