- The Yak-3 M of the Military Aviation Museum making a demo flight in October of 2021. While the Yak-3 was produced from 1944 to 1946, the M model is a "continuation" aircraft Yakovlev produced in 1991-92 in Orenburg, Russia. Yakovlev used original plans and dies that survived to make the new run of 12 aircraft, plus 9 Yak-9 models. American Allison V-12 engines were substituted for the unavailable and unreliable Klimov V-12s.
I know there is a lot of wind noise - my daughter was using my video camera, so I resorted to my mirrorless camera which doesn't seem to suppress that so well.

An excellent airplane (IMHO), and one of the most attractive of the WW 2 fighters, not least because it's small, as fighters go. It has some similarities in design/appearance to the Spitfire.
had similar mission as the Spitfire or the Dewoitine D520: small, agile short range fighter
Молодцы содержат аппарат в идеальной форме
Увы, это реплика... Мотор тоже Merlin кажется на нём стоит. В 90-х сделали ограниченую серию в 100 шт. Один, некондиционный остался в России. Но очень здорово, что они до сих пор в небе. Пусть завидуют, что у Нас был Такой аппарат, а мы будем завтдовать, что сейчас они есть у них.
Brings back so many memories of the Gaming Zone Fighterace days, I loved the YAK3
Very very nice. Sleek & fast.
Nice!!!
Almost looks like a hybrid of the Spitfire and P51 Mustang, nice aircraft though
a P51 is much bigger and heawyer and had a very long range= not realy similar...
@@leneanderthalien yes I am aware the P51D Mustang is a bigger heavier aircraft. I was merely pointing out it has certain similarities to the Spitfire and Mustang, such as a almost elliptical wing like the Spitfire, also it has a under fuselage air intake for the radiator like a Mustang.
Lovely 👍🏼 ✨ ✨
Nice 👍
One of the sexiest airplanes every made in Russia. It's a real looker.
Allison V1710 engine equipped? - Because the original Klimov M-105 (107) was left rotated.
Correct.
A replica? With Allison engine I presume. There used to be one in SA, along with a Sea Fury. Lovely aircraft!
I think yes. Because the original Klimov M-105 (107) was left rotated.
No, not a replica. If you listen to the announcer he (mostly) explains it.
Yakovlev built this plane in the 1990s, with the original jigs.
I thought he left out some important stuff…
When the USSR broke up and, and switched to a market economy, all the “design bureaus” like Yakovlev and MiG became businesses. They owned whatever factories had been building their designs, and had to figure out how to make money.
Someone at Yakovlev was checking inventory and realized they still had all the production equipment to make WW2 Yak-3 fighters.
So, they built a few dozen Yak-3s and I think the asking price was about $250,000 each. A fraction of what you’d pay for a surviving Mustang or Corsair.
They used Allison engines because, as I understand it, the Russians didn’t think their engines were that reliable, brand-new. And now they were choosing between engines >50 years old. Heck yeah, they installed an Allison. 😁
К сожалению, это действительно реплика (одна из), постоенная по оригинальным производственным документам. Кажется в Саратове в 90-х.
Good ol' Allison engines, abundant enough and sturdy. The Russian V-12s were significantly larger but had nowhere near the TBO ratings of the Allison or the Merlin. History of how this airplane was reproduced is quite unique.
I thought they had a Klimov engine?
@@johnstirling6597 I don't know of any of the Russian engines that survive to power any restored Russian warbirds. From what I've read they were very quick to deteriorate in service, very low time before overhauls. Drawings I've seen of them suggest they would have vibrated heavily, shook themselves apart from imbalance.
@@whalesong999 sounds typical of the entire Russian approach to just about everything, design and build fast, don't worry about too much maintenance because its only expected to last three months.
@@whalesong999 This unfinished Yak-1 project is the only example with a Russian Klimov V12 that is flight certified. The project was for sale. ruclips.net/video/ZzcAccNLMew/видео.html Some Russian guys dug a Mikulin AM-38 out of the mud and got it running (barely running.) And I think a group in France was restoring an IL-10 with plans to fly it with a Mikulin engine when finished.
Avvesome!
Yakovlev used sport plane to create yak 3..Yak 1 was 80% wood..to heavy..Engine wasn't that strong to achieve such speed ..in1941..war speed up production ..All watercooled motors was goin to Yakovlev planes..Lavochkin what was compared ws Yakovlev go aircooled engine to his LA5..good plane to..
Little fast on the landing!
Almost looks identical to a Spitfires front end and even sounds very similar to a Merlin.
its here not the original engine who was the Klimov 105, a evolution from the Hispano Suiza Y12, but none Klimov is awailable today and rebuilt a original engine will be extremly expansive...
V12, Schme12. Merlin, Schmerlin. Most V12's sound the same, except off the wall "flat crank" (180 crank)
It's a v12....
Looks nothing like a spitfire.
@@fourfortyroadrunner6701 You can’t make a V12 with a flat plane crack. That can only be done with four or eight cylinders (and I suppose, theoretically, 16). Otherwise I agree with what you’re saying.
期待はスピットファイア、脚部がホーカータイフーン、ラジエターはエアコブラのを下につけて
ソビエトの空と海のは三流、四流かな
That is a great airplane.
To bad it is in the shadow of spitfires and messersmits.😈
Пять звёзд на боку - это за сбитых фрицев?
Yes. It was probably painted to copy the markings of a historically significant pilot.
WW2 Russian copy of Spitfire ?
not really
Not really. It was developed from the Yak-1 which was started in 1939.
If anything, it probably owes some inspiration to the Heinkel He-100 as the German and Russian aviation industries had some fairly close ties during the 1930s.
It may just be a case of form following function. A V-12 powered fighter is going to look like most of the other V-12 fighters unless you do something weird like the put the engine in the back.
Russians didn’t copy things back then, and observant airplane nerds can see the different wing shape, the bubble canopy, and the angle of the rudder hinge.
We also know the wartime version of this plane had a 20mm cannon sticking through the propeller hub. Russian engines were designed to accommodate that, British and American engines were not.
