History

Kamov was founded by Nikolai Ilyich Kamov, who started building his first rotary-winged aircraft in 1929, together with N. K. Skrzhinskii. Up to the 1940, the year of Kamov plant establishment, they created many autogyros, including the TsAGI A-7-3, the only armed autogyro to see (limited) combat action.

From 2002 AFK Sistema controlled a 51% stake in the company, with MiG controlling the remaining 49%.[2] Kamov was sold to Oboronprom in 2005.[2]

Kamov merged with Mil and Rostvertol to form Russian Helicopters.[3] The Kamov brand name was retained, though the new company dropped overlapping product lines.
