This article presented the results of the development of new grades of civil gunpowders, not previously produced at "KGTS», and the results of designing of new hunting and sports gunpowder for the shots of 12, 16, 20 shotgun caliber and for the hunting, sports and service rifles, that both presented at domestic and foreign production. Also, there are presented the results of a theoretical and methodological analysis of previous diversification and conversion, taking into account the need for a better solution of import issues and strategy of its implementation in the conditions of existence of external sanctions and restrictions. The market of foreign powders for small arms has been analyzed and foreign gunpowders have been investigated. The positive and negative aspects of the manufacturing technology of foreign powders and the physicochemical and ballistic characteristics of import powders are revealed. Currently relevant is the question of the transformation of the military-industrial complex in accordance with the needs of economic development and national defense of the country. An important emphasis is placed on solving the problems of import substitution and development of export-oriented technology, in particular powder production as a raw material for resourcing and expanding markets of final products sales.
