The shipyard specializes in the production of military corvettes patrol boats as well as fast hydrofoil boats.

After the illegal annexation of Crimea in 2014, the invaders began using the plant to build corvettes of project 22800 Karakurt (russian: Каракурт, lit. 'Latrodectus tredecimguttatus' European Black Widow), which contributed to the militarization of the peninsula.
