Editing Arsenal Factory (section)

===Perestroika and independence===

After the beginning of [[perestroika]], military orders dropped drastically and the Arsenal factory fell into a crisis which is still ongoing. The management attempted to [[arms industry conversion|convert]] the factory by concentrating more on consumer optics and other civil products, but these attempts did little to help the factory to emerge from the crisis. Comparatively insignificant figures of civil production sales could not support the employment of military-specialized workers in such numbers and maintain the gigantic premises.

Today, control systems, gyroscopes, accelerometers and other products are used to create [[Neptune (cruise missile)|'Neptune']], [[Vilkha (missile complex)|'Vilkha']], [[Hrim-2 (missile system)|'Hrim-2']] missiles and missile systems, [[RK-3 Corsar|'Korsar']], [[:ru:Стугна-П|'Stugna']] [[Anti-tank guided missile|ATGM]]. Products of the company are used in Ukrainian space program. Civil production includes consumer optics, medical and banking equipment, gauges for the [[natural gas]] and [[light-emitting diode|optical diode]]-based [[traffic lights]]. In addition, the company performs calculations and manufacturing of optical systems and other products to order.

In 2019, [[Intergal-Bud]] construction company bought 1.4 ha or Arsenal Factory and rebuilt one of buildings into an office space.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Ірина |first=Автор: Стасюк |date=2022-02-15 |title=Корпус заводу Арсенал перебудували під бізнес-центр: фото до і після |url=https://hmarochos.kiev.ua/2022/02/15/korpus-zavodu-arsenal-perebuduvaly-pid-biznes-czentr-foto-do-i-pislya/ |access-date=2022-04-27 |website=Хмарочос |language=uk}}</ref>
