Yakovlev YAK-9 / North Korean War

82.2k SimplyPlain  4.3 years ago
Auto Credit Based on QuiteInactiveWhiteBread's korean war(FINISHED)

The Yakovlev Yak-9 was a single-engine single-seat multipurpose fighter aircraft used by the Soviet Union in World War II and after. Following World War II, the Yak-9 was used also by the North Korean Air Force during the Korean War.

This build has the standard ex-factory AGT-16 light blue-grey paint (not the most flattering color I’m afraid) and is armed with two 12.7 Berezin machine guns plus a 20 mm ShVAK autocannon (120 rounds only!) in the nose.

Controls are simple and straghtforward;

  • AG1 lights
  • AG2 toggle tail wheel steering lock
  • AG3 toggle engine exhaust effect

This challenge is probably going to attract a few Sabres, Thunderjets, P51’s and the likes… and they need something to shoot down, don’t they?

    Gun realistic shooting, 3 sorry but it’s very in realistic... the looks 8 looks fabulous!!! Fly characteristic,5 way too maneuverable...flies nice and maneuverable for me, just not realistic, color scheme realism, I can’t do a 1/10 on this, just if it’s real looking, I like it and I think it is a real color scheme, so 10 on color! Tell me if I am missing any others to judge on this.
