The Yakovlev AIR-6 was a Soviet light multi-role high-wing aircraft, with a classic - fixed landing gear, from the interwar period. The flight of the prototype took place in 1932, and shortly after that, mass production began, which led to the creation of about 130 aircraft of this type. The drive was provided by a single 100 HP Szwiecow M-11 engine. The plane did not have on-board weapons. The AIR-6 was created as a development of the AIR-5 aircraft, and its designer was Aleksander Jakowlew - later a famous designer of fighter aircraft from the Second World War. The AIR-6, compared to its predecessor, was characterized primarily by smaller dimensions and the use of a completely different drive unit of the native design. He was able to take up to three people on board - including the pilot. In the course of production, several specialized versions were created, of which it is worth mentioning, first of all, the sanitary aircraft and the hydroplaning with a fixed float undercarriage.
