The peculiarities of space equipment logistic support in operation phase are considered. The special focus is done to the problem of decrease in production expenses of spacecrafts. The paper suggests that the solution of this problem has to be based on tools commonly used in engineering fields – functional analysis and FMECA. The fragment of FMECA is presented. Due to FMECA it is clear what products in spacecrafts should be calibrated in accordance with quality requirements of military class and what ones should be calibrated in accordance with quality requirements of commercial and industrial classes. Each failure mode of midget spacecraft, identified within FMECA, is studied by assessing of criticality, severity and probability of emergence. The paper describes the main procedures of integrated logistic support on the base of the student's «Sail MGTU» midget spacecraft. Recommended guidelines providing reliability of electro radio products are elaborated. The practical application of integrated logistic support in aerospace industry is reasonably presented.

Synthesizing prior theoretical research in innovation management, competitive advantages, KM and practical activities of high-technology engineering enterprises it is posited that innovation, engineering processes and organizational culture are important antecedents of KM capability. However, it is vague whether the KM capability as a mediator affects competitive advantages. The aim of the paper is to explore the impact of the KM capability in high-technology engineering enterprises. To achieve this aim we have contributed an empiric research in which 50 high-technology engineering enterprises of Russia were involved. The regression analysis is applied to analyze the obtained empiric data. Among the three selected antecedents the engineering processes have the most impact on the KM capability. The research hasn't proved the mediating role between the KM capability and competitive advantages because of relative novelty of this phenomenon to Russian high-technology enterprises.
