Lutsk Repair Plant “Motor”, founded in 1938, is the leading enterprise of Ukraine and former USSR countries specialising in the overhaul and maintenance of aircraft turbojet engines of the third and fourth generations for modern military aircraft. The Plant is part of the Ukroboronprom concern.

Currently, Lutsk Repair Plant "Motor" accomplishes the following types of work:

• Overhaul of AL-21F-3 aircraft engines and all the component aggregates. The aircraft engines are installed in the SU-17, SU-20, SU-22, SU-24 aircraft
• Overhaul of AL-31F aircraft engines, remote aggregates boxes (VKA) and all the component aggregates. The aircraft engines are installed in SU-27, SU-30 aircraft
• Overhaul of RD-33 aircraft engines and all the component aggregates. The aircraft engines are installed in MIG-29 aircraft
• Overhaul of gas-turbine engines GTDE-117(-1) that are installed in the MIG-29 and SU-27 aircraft
• Warranty and after-warranty services and maintenance of repaired equipment
• Theoretical and practical training of specialists in the field of aircraft engine and all the components aggregates overhaul on the Client's enterprise as well as on the basis of Lutsk Repair Plant "Motor"

The enterprise has mastered and implemented the below manufacturing processes to the overhaul and restoration of aircraft equipment:

• Denotation, plasma and gas-flame coating with wear-resisting and sealing coats
• Vacuum-condensation coating of turbine blades
• All types of electrodeposited coatings
• Spark doping of the components with wolfram carbide

• Laser soldering
• Electric arc soldering of the strip ledges of blades with hollow cathode in vacuum

At the same time, the following types of inspection are applied, within the facilities of the Plant:

• X-raying, dye penetrant inspection, luminescence, whirling current control, ultrasonic, magnaflux examination
• Material fine structure inspection by means of electronic microscopy
• Spectral and X-ray spectrum methods (for estimation of assemblies and aggregates functioning state using the wear debris in luboil)
