72162 YAK-200

The Yakovlev Yak-200 was a Soviet prototype training and training aircraft from the Cold War period. The machine was made in a top wing configuration with a landing gear retracted in flight in a three-support configuration. The flight of the prototype took place probably in 1953, but the machine never entered production. The length of this aircraft was 12.95 meters with a wingspan of 17.45 meters. The drive was provided by two Szwiecow Asz-21 engines with a capacity of 700 HP each. The machine was not supposed to have on-board weapons. Design works on the Jake-200 started in 1951. They were to lead to the creation of an aircraft as cheap as possible to produce and operate, which would be a training and training machine for future Soviet bomber pilots. Simultaneously with the work on the Yak-200, work was carried out on an almost identical machine (designation: Yak-210), which was to be used for training bombardiers and navigators. However, due to structural shortcomings, both machines were not put into production, and the Il-28U became the basic training machine of this type. In total, only single copies of the Jaka-200 and the Jaka-210 were produced.
