Kozlov bureau
Part of Kozlov
Russian manufacturer of rockets and spacecraft. Samara, Russia.

AKA: Kozlov;Kozlov Central Specialized Design Bureau;OKB-1 Filial 3;TsKBEM Kuibyshev Filial;TsSKB (1965). Location: Samara.

Kozlov, Lead Designer for the R-7, was tasked with putting the world's first ICBM into production at the Progress Aircraft Factory in Kuibyshev (Samara). For that purpose he was made head of the Production Engineering Section 25 of Korolev's bureau on 23 July 1959. In 1960 Kozlov's Samara office was renamed Filial 3 of OKB-1 and took over design responsibility for all future derivatives of the R-7 rocket. In 1964 Korolev spun off the same responsibilities for the Zenit photo-reconnaissance satellites and military versions of the Soyuz. Interference from headquarters led to the Kozlov giving up Soyuz versions in 1968. But the bureau continued, with the Zenit and Yantar series, to be the primary Soviet bureau for optical space reconnaissance.

In 1967, OKB-1 was renamed TsKBEM, and Filial 3 became the Kuibyshev Branch. In 1974, with the cancellation of the N1 project and the dissolution of TsKBEM, Kozlov was given complete independence as the Central Specialized Design Bureau (TsSKB).

On April 12, 1996 TsSKB was merged with the Progress Plant into the State Science and Production Rocket and Space Center (GNPRKTs "TsSKB-Progress").
