was spun off as a separate truck and armored vehicle manufacturing company.

History

The plant was founded in 1897 (in the village of Big Mytishchi) to manufacture railcars, first for the Russian North Railway. Tramways and snowplows for Moscow have been produced since 1903, electric passenger trains since 1929 and metro-cars since 1934.

During

self-propelled guns, military tractors, tracked vehicles and other military material were produced. The plant was partially evacuated to the Ural region in October 1941. The equipment was back the following year. In 1947, production of dump trucks was started. The company later concentrated on production of subway cars, dump trucks and armored tracked vehicles (e.g. GM chassises). A number of models of Metrovagonmash subway cars have been deployed in nearly every subway (Metro) system of the former Soviet Union, as well as in Budapest, Prague, Sofia and Warsaw

.

In 1999, the plant started manufacturing rail buses as well. The plant also manufactured 137 RA2 Multiple Units between 2006 and 2008. Today Metrowagonmash is among the five thousand top enterprises in the country.^[3]

On 19 May 2023, Metrowagonmash was sanctioned by the United States Office of Foreign Assets Control. The United States Department of State said that the plant was involved in the production of military equipment, such as components for surface-to-air radar, weapons systems, and armoured tracked vehicles.^[4]
