	Russian Aviation Page: Features: Yak-9 at Champlin Fighter Museum
		I identified myself to the staff of the museum as a MiG and Yak owner, and I was rewarded with a behind the ropes, open the cockpit and climb-in tour of the collection.
		Interestingly, the aircraft's wing spar is intact and Yak is in flyable conditions.
		When aircraft was brought to Mesa and reassembled, Sergei Kotov suggested to test fly the Yak (most of the planes in Champlin's collection are flyable), but Doug Champlin declined this offer due to the great risk involved in flying of one of the kind airplane.

	The Yakovlev Yak-25 & Yak-28
		Although the Yakovlev OKB would eventually focus on airliners and transports, the organization did make a major contribution to Red air power, in the form of a series of supersonic twinjet combat aircraft, the "Yak-25" through "Yak-28", that were built in good numbers and served in a wide range of roles.
		In the meantime, the Yak OKB was also working on an externally similar reconnaissance variant, the "Yak-122", with a single prototype flown in 1955; and a supersonic interceptor variant, originally designated "Yak-121" but then given the designation of "Yak-27".
		In 1960, the Yak OKB was tasked with the development of a Yak-28 interceptor variant, designated the "Yak-28P".

	Yakovlev Yak-9U - The Air Combat Wiki
		Rather than being a further development of the Yak-3, the Yak 9U was the culmination of improvements made to the two-seat trainer version of the original Yak-1.
		Of course this meant that it shared many of the same flaws and they were too numerous to allow novice pilots to fly the plane.
		Armament consisted of the standard engine-mounted ShVAK cannon and a single 7.62mm ShKAS machine gun in the cowl and the plane had basically the same performance as the Yak-1s of the period.

	Yak-7 model built by Alexey Matvienko
		What we try to do is to put together all several bits of info available on the Yaks, and to present the way to proceed for those wishing to accomplish a pair or two of the famous Yakovlev WWII fighter models.
		Gosh, the Yaks never had those beautiful curves in the fuselage outlines, all lines are straight with a restricted number of single curvature surfaces.
		An entire Yak fighter tree with the whole lot of its branches takes its birth from the I-26 and the forefathers of the Yak-1/3 and 7/9 families differ in a minimum of details dictated by the purpose of the respective planes, the Yak-1 being the fighter and the Yak-7 being its trainer version.

		Also, Yak's and the other Russian designs had to be built to withstand the rigors of the often unforgiving Russian climate.
		With only one cannon, and 10 seconds of fire the Yak pilot has to be a good shot.
		In the hands of a good pilot who is stingy with the trigger the Yak could be fairly dangerous.

	Yakovlev Yak-1b by Ian Robertson (Accurate Miniatures 1/48) (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Early Yaks, including the 1b, were armed with only a 20 mm cannon in the propeller hub and a 7.6 mm machine gun above the engine.
		Nevertheless, Yaks played a major role in the ultimate defeat of the Luftwaffe in the eastern front.
		For the true Yak enthusiast, ICM recently released a number of Yak-7 kits (ICM also produces Yak-9 kits, although these early offerings have not received very high praise), and Eduard has a Yak-3 kit which gets good reviews.

	Yak 1b by Tony Bell (Accurate Miniatures 1/48)
		Easily the highlight of the kit, the Yak cockpit went together easily with no problems whatsoever, in contrast to my experience with the F3F-2 cockpit.
		For instance, when I set out to build the ICM MiG-3, I was expecting to have to put a lot of effort into test fitting, detailing, refining, etc. As it turns out I was correct, but still enjoyed the kit immensely.
		In contrast, I was expecting a shake and bake OOB when it came to the Yak.

	Russian Yak 9U-M
		The Yak 9U was the improved version of the Yak 9 fighter, the most important Russian fighter of WWII.
		In the final week of the war a single Yak 9UT regiment destroyed 27 Fw 190s and one Bf 109 for the loss of two aircraft.
		The Yak 9U continued in European service after the war and was also employed in Korea.

	A ton of information about the Russian YAk-3, WWII fighter
		The Yak 3 was an elegant aircraft, weighing less than 6000 lbs in full battle order and had an astonishing rate of climb.
		The basic essence of Yak design was robust simplicity, an overriding requirement caused by the harsh Russian climate and a need to remain operational over vast snowbound areas, far from industrial facilities, with the minimum of servicing.
		Last of the wartime Yaks, the -9U, was retained in Germany and ironically, used for the 'buzzing' and harassment of Western aircraft during the Berlin Airlift, when the Russians attempted to isolate that city in 1948-49.

	Yak Piston Fighters
		The main landing gear pivoted from the wings into the belly of the aircraft, giving the new Yak fighter a comfortable wide track on the ground, useful for operating on rough forward airfields.
		The last version of the Yak piston fighters was the "Yak-9P", which was introduced into service in 1946.
		There are major disagreements between sources on the Yak fighter, and though it is relatively straightforward to identify a Yak-1, Yak-3, Yak-7, or Yak-9, assignment of a particular subvariant type and specification should be taken with a bit of skepticism.

	Yakovlev
		The Yak fighters were gradually improved with the structure being redesigned with increased use of metal in the fuselage and wing structure.
		Demonstrating outstanding maneuverability and a very high rate of climb, the Yak-3 was to become the bane of Luftwaffe fighter pilots for the remainder of the war.
		Finally, there was a Yak that was markedly superior to the fighters flown by Germany.

	Modeling the VVS: Yak Fuel Details (Site not responding. Last check: )
		On the Yak fighter, the number and position of the various fuel cells--and therefore, of course, their filler caps, etc.--is one of the key items used to sort the different versions one from another.
		On the Yak fighter there are two notable pattern fuel gauges, an earlier and a later variety.
		It is not difficult to imagine that this arrangement was very much superior to the earlier instrument, but with the added complication of having two separate versions of the unit (port and starboard).

	Yak-9 T
		The lessons learned in the Yak-1, Yak-3, and Yak-7 were finally put to use in the most potent, and most heavily produced, of the Yak prop fighter family, the Yak-9.
		During continuous spiral climbing the Yak fighters lost their speed and they had to push their nose down, then the Me-109G pilots dived after them and shot them down.
		When Me-109G pilots were surprisingly attacked behind by Yak fighters the best way to break out of the situation was diving, because Yaks couldn't stand the maximum diving speed of the Me-109G.

	Yak Fighters
		The main landing gear pivoted from the wings into the belly of the aircraft, giving the new Yak fighter a comfortable wide track on the ground, useful for operating on rough airfields.
		Flight trials went well and a small batch of M-106-powered Yak 1s was built immediately, though problems with the M-106 led some of them to be re-engined with M-105PF engines.
		As availability of the Klimov inline engine was good, and a parallel effort to fit the M-82 to a Lavochkin fighter was showing more promise, the radial-engined Yak never went beyond the experimental stage.

	The mighty Russian WWII YAK-3 (Yak 3) Fighter Plane (1through9)
		This is an important inclusion to our kit of WWII Top Ten fighters because so many of them were made and, interestingly, are being reproduced again for the world market.
		It's possibly the most agile monoplane in WWII-the basic essence of the YAK was robust simplicity.
		One of the most successful series of single engine fighter aircraft produced by the Soviets during WWII came from the Yakovlev Design Bureau and these included the Yak-1, Yak-3, Yak-7, and Yak-9.

		OKB could consider the use of more metal in the construction of their fighters, and Yak engineers accordingly designed an all-metal wing for the aircraft.
		By mid-1944, the Yak OKB also came up with a two-seat, dual control trainer derivative of the Yak-9D, designated the Yak-9UTI.

		I would respectfully submit that the slip joint system will look better and take less maintenance, but to expect a metal against metal slip joint with no seal to not leak under pressure and do anything but get looser and leak more and more over time is in my opinion a great leap of faith.
		I honestly feel that the properly maintained stock system, be it yak or CJ is still the best way to prevent exhaust leaks in the engine compartment.
		Hmmm, regarding the Yak 50 or -52, I'm thinking that talk and keyboard bull is easier than the flying.

	yak
		Although not nearly so well known as Western contemporary fighters, the Yak series, principally the Yak-3 and the Yak-9, were arguably the best fighters of the Second World War.
		Of the Yak fighters, the Yak-3 (interestingly enough a slightly later aircraft than the Yak-9) was viewed as a light-weight, short-life fighter, and most Yak-3s were of mixed construction, ie with wooden wings.
		Conversely the Yak-9 were seen as a high-quality long-term aircraft, and therefore it is particularly sad that so few have survived.

	Yak-9P
		Developed as part of the Yak series of V-12 powered fighters, the Yak-9 was a direct descendant of the Yak-1.
		While the Yak was a decent piston engine fighter, it was shot down easily by the American pilots.
		For all intents, flying a Yak into an area where U.N. fighters would be encountered was not much less than suicide.

	Yakovlev Fighters 1/72 Scale
		The Yak-9 was a multi-purpose plane developed for several roles, especially the fighter-bomber role, and became the most important Soviet-built fighter of WWII, with production reaching about 15,000.
		More than 36,000 Yak fighters - of all versions - were produced by the end of WWII, accounting for almost 60% of overall Soviet fighter production.
		Yak fighters, along with Soviet-built Lavochkin fighters, were the mainstays of the Soviet Fighter Aviation Regiments in WWII.

	SimHQ Forums: Reworked Yak 9's
		Next, is a Yak 9K which I think is from the first round of operations during the summer of ’44 (they later wore all grey upper surfaces):
		I gather they were skinned with plywood early on, or the wings at least, and later in metal, but determining precisely which material featured where probably implies a bit of guesswork.
		I do have good Yak 7 and Yak 1 drawings, but then the IL2 mapping of them is distorted in ways different from the Yak 9, and it will take some time to get around this.

	ICM 1/48 Yak-9 by Mike Horrell
		This is an early version of the Yak 7DI / Yak 9 kit and is no longer listed on the Alanger website.
		Of mixed construction, the majority of the Yak family had wooden wings, a steel tube fuselage, metal panels from the cockpit forward with fabric covering on the rear fuselage and control surfaces.
		The sidewall tubing and instrument panel appear to be accurate to Yak drawings while the rudder pedals, side control panels and radio gear are all pretty lame.
