Chief designer

“Work is the last refuge of those who can’t do anything else”

Oscar Wilde, English writer

“I have nothing to offer you except blood, labor, sweat and tears...”

From W. Churchill’s speech in the House of Commons of warring England in May 1940.

Having become the chief designer, Valery Nikolaevich consistently and persistently sought recognition for the T-72 tank, developed by the design bureau and plant teams, which did not have major design flaws in the T-64 tank. For a long time, Venediktov was a strong irritant in the Ministry of Defense Industry (Minister S.A. Zverev) and even the CPSU Central Committee (Secretary of the CPSU Central Committee D.F. Ustinov), to which he was in opposition. At one of the meetings of the ministry board, the minister showed the board members and invited specialists plump folders with letters and appeals to him from the chief designer of UKBTM. “I have seen all sorts of chief designers, but this is the first time I have seen a designer-writer,” the minister concluded. This was followed by threats of reprimand and even removal from office. Venediktov chuckled as he told his closest associates about this: “Well, let him reprimand me. And I’ll frame it and hang it on the wall: it’s not every day that the minister himself reprimands.”

And Dmitry Fedorovich Ustinov did not even try to hide his hostility towards the Ural tank, calling all its supporters “opponents”.

In the diary entries of A.A. Morozov quotes Ustinov’s words addressed to him at a meeting at the CPSU Central Committee in connection with the low reliability of the 5TDF engine: “We believed and paved the way for this engine, although it still suffered from many shortcomings, believing in the assurances that these shortcomings would be eliminated with its launch into mass production . But more than 3 years have passed, and the matter has practically not moved forward and the tank has not really been put into production and has not been handed over to military units... We accept the tank that was shown to us and fight off all its opponents, and now you are giving food to your opponents with your retreat.”

Not many had the courage to be included in the category of opponents of the all-powerful Ustinov. From literary sources it is known that D.F. Only Georgy Filippovich Baidukov, one of the first Heroes of the Soviet Union, a legendary pilot from the crew of V.P., was not afraid of Ustinov. Chkalova, Colonel General. In the last period of his working life, Baidukov served as head of the 4th Main Directorate of the Ministry of Defense - the Main Weapons Directorate of the Air Defense Forces. It was he who could, turning to Ustinov, say: “Dima, if you do not agree with the opinion of the military today, then keep in mind: tomorrow I will drive up the bulldozers and demolish all the objects built near Moscow!” After these words, Dmitry Fedorovich softened and changed his point of view.

But this case is an exception to the rules of Ustinov’s behavior with people subordinate to him. General Director of the Central Research and Production Association “Vympel” V.I. Markov (developer of anti-missile and anti-space defense radars) recalled how once he and the USSR Minister of Radio Industry P.S. Pleshakov was summoned by Ustinov, who was dissatisfied with the progress of work at the radar system facilities. After listening to the invitees, he said: “...You probably know that, as the Secretary of the Central Committee, I am subordinate to not only the defense industry department, but also the department of administrative and party bodies, which supervises the State Security Committee and the prosecutor’s office. I wouldn’t want to involve them in analyzing your difficulties. I think that you will take all measures to eliminate the existing backlog.” After such a tough conversation, a pale Pyotr Stepanovich went out into the reception room and immediately asked the assistant secretary of the Central Committee Illarionov for a heart pill.”

And these people were not timid: P.S. Pleshakov - Colonel General, V.I. Markov - lieutenant general, WWII participant, commander of a partisan detachment in the Mogilev region.

Voronin (sixth from left), chief designer of UKBTM V.N. Venediktov (seventh from left)

Venediktov was well aware that in addition to solving many technical problems when creating a new main battle tank, he would have to confront the Secretary of the CPSU Central Committee and the Minister of Defense Industry with all the enterprises and organizations subordinate to them.

The price of Venediktov’s mistake in implementing his plans and plans is the brutal punishment of him by the repressive apparatus of the state.

He knew how to take a punch, as boxers say, and knew how to defend his positions. At first, his relationship with the director of Uralvagonzavod I.F. was not easy. Krutyakov, who was appointed to the post of director at the end of 1968. The director firmly raised the question to the design bureau about the unquestioning implementation of the Resolution of the Central Committee of the CPSU and the Council of Ministers of the USSR on preparing the plant for mass production of the T-64A tank and on the prohibition of work in the design bureau to create its own Ural tank. This was the reason for his conflict with the chief designer L.N. Kartsev, who was forced to leave Nizhny Tagil and leave for Moscow to his new destination. The same demands were presented to V.N. Venediktov, who took the vacated post of chief designer.

Eyewitnesses recall how one day the management of Uralvagonzavod and the design bureau were summoned to the office of the plant director. After gathering all the invited I.F. Krutyakov made a harsh statement to Venediktov about the prohibition of work at UKBTM directed against D.F. Ustinova. At the same time, the director demanded that all the KB’s secret correspondence be shown to him for personal viewing. It was an order. And it was not discussed. Coming out of Krutyakov’s office, one of Venediktov’s deputies asked him how we will continue to work?

“As we worked, we will work,” was the answer. He knew how to persuade.

V.N. Venediktov was awarded the rank of major general engineer. 1975

A few years later I.F. Krutyakov became a staunch supporter of the T-72 tank, developed at the design bureau, and did a lot to put it into service and organize mass production at UVZ. This activity was noted by awarding Ivan Fedorovich the title of laureate of the USSR State Prize.

After the completion of military tests of the “Object 172M” and “Object 219” in Turkmenistan in 1972, Ivan Fedorovich Krutyakov invited me to take a seat on the plane next to him. During the flight from Ashgabat to Sverdlovsk and then the trip in the director’s car to my house, he told me about how difficult it was to decide the fate of the Tagil tank. Just before the start of the second stage of testing the 172M tanks in Central Asia, the director of Uralvagonzavod received a special assignment from the Secretary of the CPSU Central Committee D.F. Instructor of the CPSU Central Committee V.I. flew to Ustinov. Podrezov. I remember the phrase uttered in a private conversation between Podrezov and the director: “Dmitry Fedorovich will be VERY GRATEFUL TO YOU if serial production of T-64A tanks is established at Uralvagonzavod.”

Litvinenko, Deputy Chairman of the Scientific and Technical Committee of GBTU, Colonel P.I. Kirichenko (far right)

To the honor (and courage) of Ivan Fedorovich, he did not accept the conditions of the secretary of the Central Committee of the party. During the first stage of testing in the European part of the USSR, the director followed the tanks closely in his car, carefully comparing the results of these tests with the same ones last year, in which Kharkov tanks participated.

“This allowed me to thoroughly understand all the positive and negative indicators of the T-72 tank (“Object 172M.” - E.V.’s note), compare them with similar indicators of the tank mod. 434 of the Kharkov design bureau “Plant named after. Malysheva".

Later, when, on behalf of the General Secretary of the CPSU Central Committee L.I. Brezhnev, a special commission was created under the chairmanship of the famous Marshal of the USSR - First Deputy. USSR Minister of Defense I.I. Yakubovsky, in order to make the final decision on the choice of a tank (Ukrainian or Tagil) for organizing its serial production at Uralvagonzavod, the director was pressured by two Deputy Ministers of Defense Industry in order to persuade him to the option proposed by D.F. Ustinov.

I.F. Krutyakov wrote: “Threatening words were spoken to me: “Remember that you work in the system of the Ministry of Defense Industry.” I replied that I am a patriot of both my product and the plant and will not deviate from these convictions. As it turned out later, the intimidating words spoken to me turned out to be not an empty phrase; they had an effect on my future fate.”

I.F. Krutyakov, the director of the largest tank plant in the world, who organized the serial production of the best tank of the late 20th century, was not awarded the Gold Star of the Hero of Socialist Labor, and the number of state awards allocated “at the top” to reward the best workers of UVZ and UKBTM was offensively meager.

After the transfer of L.N. Kartsev to the central apparatus of the Ministry of Defense, Valery Nikolaevich Venediktov with irrepressible energy set about strengthening the design bureau and giving the design bureau the status of an independent enterprise. The episode of pressure put on him by the plant director was not forgotten.

Main battle tank T-72B

On the basis of the low-power and small design department (department “520”) and the pilot production design bureau (workshop “540”) of Uralvagonzavod, he created a single multidisciplinary organization of highly qualified specialists - the Ural Design Bureau of Transport Engineering. He transformed UKBTM into a modern independent enterprise capable of developing, manufacturing and testing armored vehicles and other complex vehicles. The company's employees began to receive decent money for their work. Using trade union vouchers, many families began to vacation in sanatoriums and rest homes. All children of the company's employees were placed in preschool institutions. There is an opportunity to better satisfy those in need of new housing or expansion of their living space. The HR department began to select specialists from among those willing to apply for a job, and in the design departments the staff of certified specialists - university graduates - increased.

The entire further period of work of the entire UKBTM team under the leadership of the new chief designer is associated with the accelerated development of main battle tanks of the second and third generations (according to the GABTU MO classification), their acceptance into service, development in mass production and continuous improvement of their combat and technical characteristics.

The strong character, technical erudition and fighting qualities of the chief designer at that time were known to all employees of the design bureau, plant and industry.

Each department of the design bureau was given clear, but, as it seemed then, time-impossible tasks to create reliable, technologically advanced tank components that could be mass-produced and competitive with the world's best models.

The iron will of the chief forced all the plans to be carried out.

In an unequal struggle with the leadership of the Ministry of Defense Industry, government organizations and even the Central Committee of the CPSU, Venediktov proved the advantages of the Ural T-72 tank in terms of combat, operational characteristics, reliability and cost in comparison with the T-64A tank.

Together with the leadership of Uralvagonzavod and institutions of the USSR Ministry of Defense, he achieved the adoption of the T-72 tank in 1973 and the organization of large-scale production of this tank at UVZ since 1974.

Valery Nikolaevich organized a systematic analysis of the results of military operation and major tests of domestic tanks conducted in the 1970-1980s.

He created a perfect system for obtaining information from tank operation sites about identified manufacturing and design deficiencies and developed methods for their prompt elimination.

Thanks to this, the T-72 tank became the most reliable in the world and served as the basis for the creation of 11 modifications of tanks.

Chief engineer V.L. worked with complete dedication. Balyuk, deputy chief designer L.A. Weisburd, Yu.A. Kipnis-Kovalev, V.M. Bystritsky, V.P. Gorodetsky, V.K. Baydakov, N.A. Molodnyakov, S.P. Zagurovsky, A.S. Shelgachev, Yu.V. Tan, Colonel V.T. Yurinov - representative of the second replenishment of the design bureau with graduates of the armored academy, head of the experimental workshop - Yu.V. Slukin, middle managers - heads of departments, foremen, heads of public organizations, workers, testers, designers.

Just 5 years after it was put into service, the T-72 tank began to be exported. Documentation for licensed production of the tank was transferred to six countries.

At the end of the 20th century, T-72 tanks were in service in 35 countries, and by the end of 2009 the number of such countries was close to 40.

“The T-72 tank spread around the world like a Kalashnikov assault rifle,” said former Head of the GABTU S.A. Maev, as if summing up the activities of V.N. Venediktova as chief designer.

In 1998, at the Arms Exhibition in Le Bourget, the T-72 tank was recognized as the best and most popular tank of the second half of the 20th century.

In the mid-1980s, V.N. Venediktov carried out a radical modernization of the T-72 tanks.

Finally, he laid the foundations for the design of the modern T-90 main battle tank and a promising tank with unique combat and technical characteristics. The correctness of the adopted technical solutions was confirmed by him in the process of full-scale testing of prototype tanks.

Also impressive was the extensive production at UVZ of engineering vehicles based on the T-72 tank (BREM-1, MTU-72 and chassis for the IMR-2M). Until that time, the domestic industry had not had such a production of dual-use vehicles (civilian and military) simultaneously with base tanks. Venediktov entrusted the management of work on engineering machines to his deputy Yu.V. Tena.

The launch of serial production of the T-72 tank and engineering vehicles caused revolutionary changes in production at Uralvagonzavod, due to the increase in capacity designed for a sharp increase in the State order for armored vehicles and taking into account market needs, as well as the development of a large range of products unique in the complexity and precision of manufacturing parts .

It required a complete reconstruction of mechanical assembly production shops, the creation of new workshops and areas, and the introduction of thousands of technological innovations in production.

The largest volumes of construction for 1969-79. were associated with the creation of a block of mechanical shops of stages I–IV with a total area of 150 thousand m 2 .

The published essay did not aim to talk about all the products developed under the leadership of V.N. Venediktova.

As chief designer, Valery Nikolaevich supervised the development and creation of more than 120 types of armored vehicle designs, engineering vehicles based on tank chassis, training equipment sets, etc.

When the serial development of the T-72 tank began, Venediktov with all his energy took up the “technological development” and then the continuous improvement of tank systems and components.

Never before have designers spent so much time in mass production workshops, helping to master the production of complex parts and assemblies of new products.

Leading design bureau specialists spent a month or two a year in military units, studying the features of the operation and combat use of tanks, looking for design flaws.

Chief designer Valery Nikolaevich Venediktov was an indispensable participant in a number of difficult tests of the T-72, T-72A, T-72B tanks in extreme climatic and road conditions.

Having poor health, undeveloped muscles and a slight figure, he skillfully drove the T-72 tank at the factory training ground. The shortcomings he noted in the placement of instruments, controls, lamps, etc. were then immediately eliminated.

All the wishes of military personnel from privates to generals on any issue related to tanks produced by UVZ were carefully worked out in the design bureau and, as a rule, were embodied in new, more advanced serial designs after a short time.

Uralvagonzavod has always been the main supplier of armored vehicles to the troops, and UKBTM is the main developer of technical documentation for serial tanks, including those manufactured under license and exported.

All this left a special imprint on the work style of UKBTM designers, the pace of their work, efficiency in decision-making and responsibility.

We could not afford to make strategic mistakes in developing the designs of systems and assemblies and work on the design of the tank for decades, as happened with the T-64 and T-80 tanks.

Uralvagonzavod supplied the troops with tanks in such quantities that subsequent mass modification of the tanks could simply be unacceptable for the plant and the army.

Starting with Leonid Nikolaevich Kartsev, all subsequent chief designers of UKBTM strive for technical improvement of serial tanks in the process of their evolutionary development, introducing components as they are debugged, without stopping the factory conveyor with maximum preservation of standardized components and parts. “We must have serial brains,” V.N. tirelessly said. Venediktov.

Before taking the post of chief designer, the design bureau had a poor experimental base. The mechanics convinced Venediktov of the need to equip the experimental base with priority stands: for testing air purifiers (a dust preparation laboratory also appeared) and heaters, conducting aerodynamic studies of the fan cooling system with simulating natural conditions at the inlet, outlet of the impeller, and also inside the cochlea. With the participation of our enterprise, a unique complex stand was created at SKB "Turbina" (Chelyabinsk), consisting of a full-scale engine and transmission compartment of the T-72 tank, on which about 100 complex research projects were carried out. At that time, no enterprise in the industry had such stands.

The Central Aerohydrodynamic Institute named after. NOT. Zhukovsky" (TsAGI). VNIITM began to pay more attention to us.

Valery Nikolaevich scrupulously analyzed, with the involvement of a large group of researchers and designers, the results of experiments and tests and always set new tasks. He, nevertheless, paid the main attention to full-scale tests.

In those years, it was possible to conduct climatic, road, and high-altitude tests of tanks in various regions of the USSR.

Valery Nikolaevich was an indispensable participant in many trials. This physically weak man with a shattered nervous system had a steely will and a rare sense of purpose. During military tests of 15 Object 172M tanks in 1972 along a route of about 11,000 km, his vehicle relentlessly followed the tanks on their heels.

In an interview with Strana.Ru, the chief designer of the S.V. Ilyushin Aviation Complex OJSC, responsible for the operation of Il-86 aircraft, Radiy Bobkovsky noted that the first feeling after the horror of the loss of life was bewilderment. After all, this plane did not suffer a disaster for 20 years.

Radiy Petrovich, you are the main specialist in Russia on Il-86 aircraft. What do you think was the cause of the terrible disaster at Sheremetyevo?

The data that I have, the ones we have received so far, do not yet make it possible to draw any categorical conclusion. We need to wait a little while for those who are now dealing with this catastrophe to figure everything out. Our commission is currently working on this.

Il-86 was considered one of the most reliable aircraft, right?

This plane is truly the most reliable. This is the most reliable aircraft in the world, there are no others like it. There were no accidents with it at all - for all 20 years of operation. And our first reaction, after the horror of the tragedy with people, is bewilderment at what could have happened there. So far I can’t explain anything sensible to you. We will give any information in due course, but it is necessary that it is not confusing. And now, without waiting for the results, they are already starting to draw some conclusions and broadcast statements that we do not understand.

Are you the general designer of the IL-86?

The development of this aircraft 20 years ago was led by general designer Genrikh Vasilyevich Novozhilov. And for the last 10-12 years I have been dealing with the problems of operating the IL-86.

It reveals the not entirely clear behavior of the aircraft and its parts, as well as the crew - and we consider all this in total. And it was a very fleeting process - when they took off. We can’t even imagine such coincidences on an airplane, where everything was duplicated 4 times, so that there was such an incredible failure. For 20 years, there has not been a single prerequisite for an incident of this level. Therefore, we must be patient and wait until we are given all the initial data to think about.

Witnesses of the disaster noted the unusual behavior of the plane, which, before falling, first went vertically upward and only then turned over and fell nose down. What could have caused this?

This could happen. If such behavior of the aircraft is noted, then there must either be a violation in the systems, which, I repeat again, are duplicated many times, or the pilots must perform certain actions that drive the aircraft into this position. I cannot confirm either one or the other yet. Maybe it's the technology, or maybe it's the people. After all, an airplane is a complex; it is a joint work of equipment and crew. We're figuring it out.

"Chief Designer"- Soviet two-part feature television film directed by Vladimir Semakov. Created based on the story “The Creation of Armor” by Yakov Reznik and real events related to the creation of the T-34 tank at the Kharkov Locomotive Plant. The premiere of the television film took place on October 5, 1980 on the first CT program.

Plot [ | ]

Winter of 1940, the Finnish War is underway. There were 16 months left before the start of the Great Patriotic War. The country was in dire need of modern and reliable weapons, since the combat vehicles then in service in the USSR had long been hopelessly outdated.

At one of the Leningrad military factories, a young designer, Mikhail Koshkin, who previously worked as the director of a confectionery plant, was recently appointed head of the design bureau. Having accepted the design bureau, they handed over to him all the developments of the old designer Semyon Semyonovich’s worthless medium tank project. During testing, the tank gets stuck in a swamp. Koshkin takes full responsibility for the failure to the head of the commission, Deputy People's Commissar Ragozin. During a difficult conversation about the conflict with the former chief designer Semyon Semyonovich, he honestly tells him “I have no right to make a mistake, but you do.” But Koshkin has his own project for a medium tank, which he implements by moving to the Southern Plant.
Two demonstration vehicles were created, but Deputy People's Commissar Ragozin deleted them from the application for display of new tanks in the Kremlin, recalling his first meeting with Koshkin in the swamp. At the same time, Ragozin sends an experienced tanker who fought in Spain, Major Gaevoy, to the plant for three months with the order to “check everything.”

To prove the perfection of his T-34 tank, Koshkin decides to go 1,500 km under his own power to Moscow in the winter, convincing the plant director of this and secretly from Gaevoy. At the same time, in Moscow the T-34 is supported by the deputy head of the People's Commissariat of Armaments. Two T-34 tanks and a technical tracked tractor are driving off-road.

Having received the report, Ragozin orders Gaevoy to intercept the tanks and return them to the plant, while simultaneously calling the plant director and production manager to Moscow with documentation. Halfway along the way, Gaeva still intercepts the tanks at a railway crossing, but after negotiations he allows him to go further, but only until the first breakdown. Soon, Koshkin’s assistants egg on Gaevoy with indecision in making independent decisions, and he cannot stand it - he sits down at the levers of the tank and begins to test it in the winter field. Having flown into a ravine, Gaevoy breaks the clutch and gets a head injury, but admires the new car. The column moves on, Koshkin has caught a cold and can barely stand on his feet, as a result of which Gaevoy decides to lead the column himself.

On March 17, the convoy arrives in Moscow and Ragozin sends one T-34 to a test site to test the tank's armor. All the cannon shells ricochet and Rogozin admiringly thanks Koshkin. The next day the tank is shown to Stalin in the Kremlin and approved.

Spring. On the way back, Koshkin, in order to get the 3000 km missing before factory testing, suggests that the team go back to Kharkov through the spring thaw on their own...

Historical events[ | ]

The film is based on real events.

In December 1936, M.I. Koshkin, a man with extensive experience in organizational work, was appointed head of the tank design bureau of the Kharkov Locomotive Plant (since 1937 - “plant No. 183”). Having quickly understood the difficult production situation, Koshkin set the task: while retaining employees and not abandoning work on improving the design of mass-produced tanks, to create a new generation tank: “Work not to catch up, but to overtake! In design, use not an analogue, but a trend. To introduce a new tank that would be promising for a long time and would not require significant changes.”
Under the leadership of M.I. Koshkin, in the late 1930s, experimental medium tanks A-20 (wheeled-tracked), A-32 (tracked) were created, and on its basis - the legendary T-34 (tracked, with a diesel engine B- 2). In April 1939, M. Koshkin was appointed chief designer of plant No. 183. On December 19, 1939, the USSR Defense Committee adopted the A-34 (T-34) tank, manufactured by plant No. 183, into service with the Red Army. Two demonstration vehicles were created. But by the end of February 1940, not a single car had completed the required mileage. It became obvious that it would not be possible to complete the entire scope of testing before the government show scheduled for March. Without this, the tanks could not be allowed to display. Then the idea arose to transport both A-34 (T-34) tanks from Kharkov to Moscow under their own power and thus gain the necessary mileage. At a special meeting of the plant’s party committee, M. Koshkin was appointed responsible for the run. After going through a difficult snowy path, both tanks arrived in Moscow, passed the tests perfectly, and then also returned to Kharkov under their own power. On March 31, 1940, the T-34 tank was approved for mass production at factories in Kharkov and Stalingrad. The run of two tanks Kharkov - Moscow - Kharkov cost Koshkin his life: Mikhail Ilyich caught a bad cold on the way, suffered complications, and died on September 26, 1940.
