OKB

An OKB (Russian: ??????? ??????????????? ???? - Opytnoe Konstructorskoe Byuro - Experimental Design Bureau) was, during the Soviet era, an engineering design team. These were each assigned a number by the state, and often named after their head designer - for example, OKB-51 was headed by Pavel Sukhoi, and eventually became known as OKB Sukhoi. Successful and famous bureaux often retained this name even after the death or replacement of that designer.
