FS2004/FSX Yak-1M. The Yakovlev Yak-1 was a World War II Soviet fighter aircraft. Production began in early 1940. It was a single-seat monoplane with a composite structure and wooden wings. The Yak-1 was extremely manoeuvrable, fast and well armed, and, just as importantly, it was easy to maintain and reliable. It formed an excellent basis for subsequent developments from the Yakovlev bureau. In fact it was the founder of a family of aircraft, with some 37,000 being built. In 1943, Yakovlev designed the Yak-1M which was a lighter version of the Yak-1.Tested in FS2004/FSX/FSX Acceleration. Gmax model by A.F. Scrub.
