Yak-23 "Flora"

---

The Yak-23 was developed as a simple lightweight jet fighter, on Yakovlev's own initiative.

It was a development of the earlier Yak-15 and Yak-17 fighters, retaining their non-conventional layout with a jet engine in the fuselage nose and exhaust under the cockpit, but the construction was all new.

Its wings were derived from the Yak-19.

The Yak-23 used a Soviet copy of the British Rolls-Royce Derwent V turbojet engine, produced as the Klimov RD-500. It first flew on July 8, 1947.

After successful flights, it underwent state trials in 1948 and was accepted for series production.

It was evaluated as highly maneuverable, with a good acceleration and take-off and climb capabilities thanks to high thrust-to-weight ratio.

Faults were poor directional stability at speeds around Mach 0.86 and lack of cockpit pressurization.

Despite being one of the best straight-wing jet fighters, it was inferior to new swept-wing designs.

it does state in red text at the bottom that Expansion Pack 2, meaning you had to purchase it

it will work with Complete Edition, even though that came out after this was released

this is why we put readmes and full details into these releases. even tho nobody ever reads them
