About ZVI

ZVI a.s. manufactures medium-calibre ammunition in 20 mm and 30 mm calibres, along with weapons, pyrotechnic systems and specialised products for military aviation. The website names the 30 × 173 mm and 20 × 102 mm calibres as its main focus and lists a 30 × 113 mm calibre as newly introduced. Its product catalogue includes TP, AP-T, HEI-T, APFSDS-T and SAPHEI-T variants, among others.

The company is a qualified supplier of medium-calibre ammunition to the Army of the Czech Republic and to several foreign armed forces. It states that it is the only Czech qualified supplier of 30 × 173 mm ammunition for the Pandur 8×8 vehicles. The website does not describe its commercial terms or revenue model.

ZVI traces its origins to the Zbrojovka Vsetín works, founded in 1937, and has been named ZVI a.s. since 2000. It joined the MPI Group in 2004 and, in August 2025, the Czechoslovak Group (CSG) acquired a majority stake. Production takes place at plants in Vsetín and Slavičín, and the company operates its own long-distance shooting range in Střelná for testing. It holds ISO 9001:2016 and AQAP 2110 certifications, and the careers page lists openings for injection moulding press operators and production machine operators.
