The MIRAS Military-Industrial Company, operating under the Ministry of Defence of the Republic of Azerbaijan, focuses on ensuring the technical sustainability of the Azerbaijani Army, maintaining its material and technical base in operational condition, and supporting combat readiness. Its main areas of activity include the repair, maintenance and modernization of military equipment, as well as the integration of various systems.
One of MIRAS’s key features is the combination of military experience with engineering expertise. The company employs specialists with previous military service, enabling it to take into account the practical characteristics of equipment operation and develop technical solutions based on operational requirements. Feedback from the Army is also considered in the improvement of technologies and service quality.
An important area of the company’s activity is the overhaul and medium repair of engines and gearboxes for aviation equipment. MIRAS also carries out the modernization of long-serving equipment, integration of various technical components, engineering design and testing. The company operates in aviation, air defence, communications and other military-technology fields.
One of MIRAS’s key technological priorities is increasing localization and reducing dependence on foreign suppliers. To this end, the company is developing its existing repair and service capabilities while establishing the necessary technical infrastructure for new equipment and modern systems. Spare parts are sourced locally and, where necessary, from international partners.
The company has also identified the expansion of international cooperation and access to new markets as a long-term objective. MIRAS maintains cooperation with Türkiye and other countries and plans to expand its activities in the markets of Central Asia, Africa and neighbouring regions.
Among MIRAS’s notable projects is the modernization of BMP-1 infantry fighting vehicles and integration of the TOLGA turret in cooperation with Türkiye’s MKE. Another significant project is the joint development of the SALVO armed and KAYRA kamikaze unmanned surface vessels with DEARSAN. These projects demonstrate MIRAS’s capabilities in armoured vehicle modernization, integration of next-generation systems and development of unmanned platforms.
Overall, MIRAS’s activities extend beyond technical maintenance and repair. Service, modernization, system integration, localization and engineering development constitute the company’s main areas of activity within Azerbaijan’s defence industry.
The Azerbaijani company Palladium Group of Companies is a group of companies operating across various sectors, including defence, security, engineering, marine services, import and export, and textiles.
