JSC Zelenodolsk Shipyard, located in Zelenodolsk, Russia, is a prominent shipbuilding company and a part of Ak Bars Holding. In its history, Zelenodolsk Plant played a crucial role in military shipbuilding during World War II. It received relocated equipment from the western USSR and commenced the construction of Artillerist-class submarine chasers. Post-war, the shipyard specialized in constructing submarine chasers and small escort ships, with designs coming from its associated design bureau. This included notable classes such as Kronshtadt, SO-1, Poti, and Grisha. During the early 1970s, the facility expanded and began producing larger escorts like the Koni class, primarily for export. The Koni class was later succeeded by the Gepard class. Additionally, Zelenodolsk Plant was involved in the construction of substantial missile-armed surface effect ships of the Dergach class, designed by the Almaz Central Marine Design Bureau in St. Petersburg, along with various naval auxiliaries. Over time, the shipyard also had ongoing production of civilian ship types, including Zelenodolsk-class river tugs in the 1950s, Meteor-type passenger hydrofoils (designed in Nizhniy Novgorod), Caspian Sea trawlers during the 1960s, and 3,700-ton Tatarstan-class refrigerator ships for the fishing industry in the 1970s.
