[@sherlocksinha2435]

Fun fact - when doing turns or loops at speeds around 250 km/hr don't be afraid to use your landing flaps . Tap your flaps since it only allows landing position by default . Using it allows you to turn your nose around at an alarming rate which helps when engaging vs turn fighters. Never keep them deployed as they create a ton of drag plus they rip really easily.

[@JustARandomHuman]

Spacecat:has a good intro* Me who only watches "how to" jonman: perhaps I treated you to harshely

[@paulomr445]

Honestly, after flying the french yak 3 the best strategy I have is to never climb above 3000m and be generally aggressive. You rush the enemy at around 2000, if there's some poor fucker flying low you kill it, if there's no one keep going until the enemy see you and try to bait them into following you down to the deck where you have better performance. This gives your team a n altitude advantage assuming they know what you're doing and prepare accordingly. The great thing about the yak-3 is that you outrun in a straight line anything you don't out turn. So if you're fighting americans and germans you force them into a turn fight. If it's Japanese and British bnz in a straight line since you have great acceleration. The only gripes I have with the plane are that the guns are inconsistent with low ammo counts, meaning groundpounding is hard and bomber hunting inadvisable, and it doesn't like to dive, it red lines at 650kph and it reaches that mark quickly. Other than that it's pretty good at air superiority.

I remember trying to play the Yak line back when cannons got their massive buff (for everything but the ShVak and Hispano it felt) and it was horrible. Always had 2 109s diving on you, and if even one of them hit your plane with one cannon, it would disintegrate around you. I think I might go back and give it another go.

[@catstopower]

You forgot to mention something pretty important for players unfamiliar with soviet planes, what's in my opinion the only major drawback this plane has: It's rip speed. The Yak-3 has a damn good acceleration and when diving on an opponent, you can get uncomfortable close the wing snap speed of a bit over 700km/h in a matter of seconds. It hasn't killed me yet, but I saw enough players breaking this little bias machine because of that. Good vid tho, as always.

You don’t need wep since yaks have amazing acceleration. Low ammo count is negligible since you usually have cannons which shred planes in a single burst, if you have good aim that is. Eh? The only Axis nation that I have a hard time dealing with are Japanese. G55s, 109s, and 190s aren’t a problem unless 5 of them decide to gangbang you.

Spacecat I love your videos, especially the more recent ones they've gotten alot better! One piece of advice about the belts, Soviet he rounds are the worst in the game and the FIT has more filler than the HE shell. So the best belt for 20s is default belt. And if you wanna really cause maximum damage 400m convergence default on the 20 and stealth on the 12.7s. Instant fire to any plane you touch : ) Edit the reason why default belt is better than tracer belt is because the API 20s are really good at setting fires and they have better penetration at sharp angles than the FIT she'll. So with the default belt you get the best of both worlds good pen at angles with high fire chance and most explosive filler.

It's a plane to bait impatient boom and zoomers. They all ignore the part where B&Z doctrine says if your first pass fails extend and climb and try again. Or find a more opportune target.

[@Shadowhunterbg]

Yak 3 is probably my favorite plane in the game. It is extremely versitile and flexible for any situation. It can evade, it can turn, it is responsive, good aceleration and very good 20mm cannons. Yes, i said it. As a german player the russian 20mm are better than the german one. It sounds like madness but while the 20mm the germans have is very powerful, it has a very slow rate of fire. Multiple times i have the feeling that the enemy just passes through the shells... The Shvak cannon although is less damaging, it fires like a machine gun. From there on it's rng, one shell might do no damage but in other cases one shell is all you need to rip a wing. The low ammunition i like as well. It teaches the player to aim better and honestly when i fire the 2x50.cals and the single cannon i have the feeling that i am like a bee. Death by multiple stings.

[@MDzmitry]

Yak-3 was originally called Yak-1M for "Modified" or "Mosquito", so yeah, the small stinging annoyance is what Yakovlev aimed for when finishing the project.

If you're in a German plane stick to mid and high altitudes where his engine power drops off badly and second abuse the fact that his controls and more importantly his wing can't sustain speeds of over 650 km/hr all too well . Keep it high and keep it fast

[@zakeriechouinard1642]

I feel that Your ammo choice, while good, may not be the best choice for the Yak's. This is IMO, the best ammo choice: 12.7mm: I load Tracer belt for the 12.7mm as it is pure API-t, the IAI in the Air target belt seems to do less damage. 20mm For the 20mm I (again) load Tracer belts, which have only FI-t, Tracer seems to do the most consistence damage since the ShVak cannon (and all cannons using the 20x99mmR case) don't have large enough (volume) shells to really make HE shells worth while Benefit of this Ammo choice Having pure tracer also gives the benefit of not needing to fire as many rounds to understand where your shells are heading, very useful on an aircraft that has the ammo capacity of a revolver. Side note Loading FI-t in the BI rocket plane is a must, since you only get 45 rounds per cannon. This is how I discovered the killing capability of FI-t over other belt choices.

[@MDzmitry]

I disagree. Used to fly with Tracers too, but overall the Standart is better all-around due to FI-T being less effecrive from the six. Although in Yaks using Tracer is fair enough thanks to UBS filling the API role, in other planes, especially only-ShVAK ones, using standart will save you ammo when attacking from the six. 1/2 tracers filling is perfect too, due to ShVAKs even tap-shooting at least 2 shells, so you'll see the tracers all the time. For UBS my personal fav is the Ground, but it's down to personal preferences
