The production of RD-33 family engines for MiG-35 fighters has been officially and finally concentrated in Ufa. The Moscow Machine-Building Enterprise (MMP) named after V. V. Chernyshev joined "ODK-UMPO".

In addition to RD-33 engines, UMPO participates in the production of VK-2500 helicopter engines and manufactures AL-41 family engines for Su-35 and Su-57 fighters.
