YAKOVLEV YAK-9

Title: Yakovlev YAK-9

The YAK-9P was bigger and heavier than it’s predecessor YAK-3, although it used the same engine. First flown in 1942, the YAK-9 was the most mass-produced Russian fighter of all time, with over 16,000 being produced between 1942 and 1948. Post WW2 it was supplied to a number of Russian allies, including North Korea.

To maximise value, this title contains a flight manual for the YAK-9P produced by Cornell Laboratory for the US Defence Department based on flight tests of an aircraft captured in Korea, along with a similar manual for the Ilyushin IL-10. The files have been scanned from the original flight manuals and retain any colour pages.
