NPO Saturn (НПО Сатурн) is a Russian aircraft engine manufacturer, formed from the mergers of Rybinsk and Lyul'ka-Saturn (after Arkhip Mikhailovich Lyulka). Saturn's engines power many former Eastern Bloc aircraft, such as the Tupolev Tu-154. Saturn holds a 50% stake in the PowerJet joint venture with Snecma. The company, founded by Pavel Aleksandrovich Soloviev, has its headquarters in the town of Rybinsk.
