Ural Diesel Engine Plant (Russian: Уральский дизель-моторный завод) is a company based in Yekaterinburg, Russia.

The engine manufacturing facilities of the Kirov Plant in Leningrad[1] and the Kharkov diesel factory 75 (Харьковский дизельный завод №75)[2] were transported to the Ural region of Russia (Sverdlovsk).
[1] After the end of WWII production of diesel engines continued, with the plant producing engines for oil drilling, excavators, locomotives and mobile generators.
After 1979 the factory became a key supplier of diesel engines for Belarusian dump truck manufacturer BelAZ.
