MPO – Gidropribor Concern will present its state-of-the–art developments at the International Naval Salon Fleet-2026, from promising torpedoes, mines and sonar countermeasures to high-tech civilian products.
The State Scientific Center of the Russian Federation JSC Concern MPO – Gidropribor (part of the Tactical Missile Armament Corporation) is a leading Russian enterprise in the field of development and production of marine underwater weapons and special–purpose underwater equipment for the Navy. The concern's products are in service in more than 20 countries.
As part of the MVMS Fleet-2026, the concern will present developments in key areas of its activities, including torpedo and mine weapons, sonar countermeasures, as well as civilian products, as part of the unified exposition of the Tactical Missile Armament Corporation.
Among the latest developments of the concern is the UMT electric universal small–sized torpedo of 220 mm caliber.

According to the company, the development of ultra-small homing torpedoes for arming a wide range of carriers is one of the priorities today. UMT is capable of hitting submarines, certain classes of surface ships and vessels, as well as uninhabited underwater vehicles, and is designed for use from helicopters, airplanes, and UAVs. According to the customer's instructions, the torpedo can be adapted to any type of carrier, including unmanned boats. The UMT has an analog-to-digital homing and control system, which allows you to adjust the guidance of the torpedo in real time and increases the efficiency of its operation in a complex jamming environment.
Another of the concern's modern developments, now in the segment of high–tech civilian products, is the Corvette complex for the protection of particularly important marine and coastal facilities. Its tasks include detecting, tracking and classifying targets, determining the current coordinates and parameters of its movement, as well as automatically transmitting information to higher levels. The complex includes interconnected subsystems: radar, television-optical, sonar (based on the Mayak-S sonar detection station for small underwater objects) and a data processing system. This provides comprehensive monitoring of the situation on the surface, coastal areas and the underwater environment, which increases the likelihood of detecting a threat and reduces the risk of its passage.
"The complex adapts to the configuration of facilities due to the possibility of connecting up to ten Mayak-S stations, each of which can be equipped with antenna units with different viewing sectors and can be removed from the control point at a distance of about 20 km, which significantly expands the controlled area of the water area. The main advantage of GAS "Mayak-S" is a unique digital signal processing algorithm that provides reliable detection of potentially dangerous underwater moving objects in the most difficult conditions: in shallow water, with difficult bottom topography, strong sea waves and high acoustic noise levels. – Currently, Gidropribor is working to improve the digital signal processing algorithms of the GAS Mayak-S to create a specialized channel for detecting uninhabited underwater vehicles, which will increase the effectiveness of countering underwater unmanned threats. At the same time, work continues on improving the Corvette complex. In the future, it can be supplemented with specialized equipment, including an air situation monitoring and UAV detection system."
