WW2 Soviet Fighter - Yakovlev Yak-9
Показать описание
The Yakovlev Yak-9 was a single-engine fighter aircraft used by the Soviet Union in World War II and after.
Fundamentally a lighter development of the Yak-7 with the same armament, it arrived at the front at the end of 1942. The Yak-9 had a lowered rear fuselage decking and all-around vision canopy. Its lighter airframe gave the new fighter a flexibility that previous models had lacked.
The Yak-9 was the most mass-produced Soviet fighter of all time. It remained in production from 1942 to 1948, with 16,769 built (14,579 during the war).
Following World War II it was used by the North Korean Air Force during the Korean War.
This video was shot at Temora in NSW, Australia.
