Spotlight Yakovlev Yak-9
This month, Spotlight focuses on a widely produced Russian fighter that played a key role in World War Two. While the Yak-9 may lack the fame of the Spit¬ re and Mustang, it was an essential weapon in the Soviet arsenal, and continued to operate post-war with the North Korean Air Force. With exclusive artwork and rarely seen images, we scrutinize one of World War Two’s most potent single engined ¬fighters.
