Yakolev Yak-17

45.5k Sgtk  7.2 years ago

The Yakovlev Yak-17 was an early Soviet jet fighter. It was developed from the Yak-15, the primary difference being tricycle landing gear. The trainer version, known as the Yak-17UTI was the only Soviet jet trainer of the 1940s. Both aircraft were exported in small numbers and the Yak-17 was soon replaced by the far superior Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-15 beginning in 1950. It's been a while since I uploaded anything, but I needed a hiatus of sorts. Anyway, this gem's got 2 23mm cannons and a custom tricycle gear. VTOL for Flaps. Let me know if you have any suggestions for improvement and as always, enjoy your flight!!

    @Phantom1 I wouldn't recommend it. Those are fuel tanks on the wings, not floats. Thank you for the upvote!! You too @EternalDarkness
