Yakovlev Yak-9

The Yakovlev Yak-9 was a single-engine fighter aircraft used by the Soviet Union in World War II. Like the Yak-3, it was a development of the earlier Yak-1. In the early 1990s, Yakovlev restarted limited production of the Yak-9 along with the Yak-3. These aircraft were powered by the Allison V-1710 engine.
