   During World War II the factory's shipbuilders worked for the needs of soldiers at the frontline, making armaments, repairing ships, building barges for the transportation of livelihood products across Ladoga Lake to the besieged city of Leningrad.
   Since 1945 the factory produced various types of warships, submarines, atomic cruisers and icebreakers, refrigerator ships, tankers, science research ships, etc.
   The factory's output includes large-diameter engine screws (up to 8 m) made out of copper alloys, steam pots, steam generators, chemical equipment, heat-exchange aggregates, nuclear station equipment and various other board devices.
   Over its entire history the plant has built 127 submarines, 158 above-surface warships and 215 general purpose ships.
   For its contributions to the deelopment of international cooperation "Baltiysky Factory" has been awarded the international "Golden Mercury" prize.
   At the present time the factory is building "50 Years After Victory" nuclear ice-breaker, chemical tankers and frigates.
   The factory's technological and production potential allows it to build ships according to international norms and regulations with guaranteed quality and durability, to make complex modern board devices.
