The Prokhogorsk Outer-Space Aeronautics Bureau (Prokho: Прохогорска Космическое Авиационное Бюро, tr. Prokhogorska Kosmicheskoye Aviatsionnoye Byuro) or POSAB (Prokho: ПКАБ) is a Prokho government agency responsible for various aeronautical operations, and aerospace flights and research within Prokhogorsk.

POSAB was formed in 1953 from the merging of the Prokhogorsk Administration of Aviation (PAA) and Prokhogorsk Missile Command (PMC), intending to unify the military and civilian aeronautic programs' research and technology. Following successful testing in the 1950s of rockets based on Ostrocian designs, POSAB launched a series of successful probes and satellites with the Poyezdka program. With access to equatorial launches and development of experimental rocket technologies, Prokhogorsk quickly became a leader in the global space race.

Since restructuring in 2013, POSAB has contracted aerospace manufacturing and various services from private spaceflight companies. In 2016 the Svecha series of launch system began development for Prokhogorsk by Bavmarkian defense contractor Hexe-Olmypus.
