At the end of the 1950s the government began to increase the number of companies dedicated to the production of rockets. Thus, in Aprill955 it decided to build plant N°l39 in Miass near Chelyabinsk to produce R-5M and R-7 missiles in series. But in March 1958 this project was abandoned and the plant became a duplicate ofNII-88 and of its subsidiary in Zagork (later NII-229) and absorbed by V. P. Makeiev in October 1959. In February 1958, plant N°1001 KrasMach, in Krasnoyarsk, was affected by this move. The minister Dimitri Ustinov wanted an underground factory created to manufacture Korolev’s rockets. In fact, an underground nuclear plant had already been built in the secret city of Krasnoyarsk-26.
