Initially they were involved in repairing German aircraft then in use in Bulgaria, DAR soon began producing copies of some of these ("DAR Uzunov-1", "DAR 2"), before moving on to licensed production of the Focke-Wulf Fw 44.

The workshops produced a number of original designs, some of these were produced

"DAR 1A" - 12 pieces,
"DAR 3" - 24 pcs.,
"DAR 4",
​"DAR 6" - 6 pcs.,
"DAR 8" - 12 pcs.,
"DAR 9", "DAR 11" - 12 pcs.

Although aircraft manufacture was moved to the Darzhavna Samoletna Fabrika - State Airplane Factory, in Lovech in 1940, the designers remained in DAR. 
The final design, the DAR 11 fighter of 1941 never left the drawing board. DAR was closed after 1945 and the personnel and facilities were moved to the DSF in Lovech.
