Renamed after Kirov

Zaloga (1984:53) states "... the former Obukhov Works, later renamed the Bolshevik Factory Nr. 232, in 1935 became the Zavod Nr. 185 (S. M. Kirov) although it was still called the Bolshevik Works by many of the inhabitants of Leningrad." I can't find any mention of this in the company's history. Can anyone confirm or refute? —Michael Z. 2007-02-06 06:05 Z

Zavod №185 with zavod №174 was a spinoffs from Bolshevik Factory (former Obukhov Works), later (1941) they were evacuated to Chelyabinsk, then Omsk, after 2WWar (1945) they merged together and construction of boat engines started (now is known as OAO Zvezda).

The page you provided only says OAO Zvezda has its roots in one of the departments of Bolshevik Factory; nothing more. --Kubanczyk (talk) 09:14, 29 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
