lf l remember correctly that Yak-3 at one time had a lot of armor on it....But that was a very long time ago for me indeed...O,thanks very much...1

[@standurham2525]

If this is G-OLEG, it suffered engine failure immediately after landing at Teesside Airport 8/6/24. No injuries but airport was shut for 40 minutes until it was towed from runway.

[@michaeldargan7290]

Great video great plane thankyou for sheering!!

[@knightflightvideo]

You're welcome! :)

[@michaelhylanddpt]

I was a bit confused by the description. I knew the original had a Klimov V-12, but it also says something in the description about an Allison V-1710... which is it. Sure sounds like an Allison when you hear the takeoff and low passes

[@knightflightvideo]

It's a new build replica by Yakovlev with Allision V-1710 engine.

[@michaelhylanddpt]

KNIGHT FLIGHT VIDEO ah NOW it makes sense. Thank you! Beautiful airplane.

[@keithallver2450]

Beautiful plane!

[@jasongibson3574]

Maybe the best turning fighter of WW2. Perhaps only the Zero could turn inside a Yak 3. Yak 3, Spitfire, Zero, Ki-43, Ki-100, Ki-84, and Shiden Kai were all the best pure dogfighters of the war.

[@Airguardian]

Absolutely wonderful! :D

[@knightflightvideo]

Thanks, Jandro! :)

[@Airguardian]

@@knightflightvideo I think I saw one of these in Airventure 2011 but it could have been a MiG... I don't recall! :p

[@knightflightvideo]

Yes, MiG-3 and Yak-3 looks very similar that time. ;)
