Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD)


“Korolev works for TASS,
Chelomey’s work goes down the toilet, and
Yangel’s is for us.”
quip of military officers

Russia / Soviet Special Weapons Industry

The governmental Commission on Military-Industrial Affairs (VPK) under the USSR Council of Ministers integrated the entire military-industrial complex. In 1965, three main ministries subordinate to the VPK [all three with more or less deceptive names] inherited the profiles of the three former main directorates: the Ministry of Medium Machine Building (MSM) for all nuclear technology; the Ministry of General Machine Building (MOM) for missile technology, including space technology; and the Ministry of the Radio Engineering Industry (MRP) for anti-aircraft and anti-ballistic missile technology.
