Historical reference:
The Yak-130 (according to NATO codification : Mitten - “Mitten” ) is a Russian combat training aircraft developed by the Yakovlev Design Bureau together with the Italian company Aermacchi (which withdrew from the project at the final stage of development and created its own M-346 aircraft based on the received design technical documentation for the airframe; Yakovlev Design Bureau completed the creation of the Yak-130 without a partner).
The Yak-130 is designed to replace the L-39 training aircraft in the Russian Air Force and is capable of performing maneuvers typical of fourth- and fifth- generation fighters . Reprogramming the control system makes it possible to train pilots not only for Russian combat aircraft, but also for NATO aircraft . In combat modification it can be used as a light attack aircraft.
The Yak-130 is the first completely new (and not a modernized version of an existing model) aircraft built in Russia after the collapse of the USSR.
Aircraft are produced at the Irkutsk Aviation Plant.
The main designers of the aircraft are Nikolai Dolzhenkov, Vitaly Naryshkin and Konstantin Popovich .
The Yak-130 defeated the MiG-AT in the tender for delivery to the Russian Air Force.
