Description
The Yakovlev Yak-38 (Russian: Як-38, NATO reporting name: Forger) was Soviet Naval Aviation's first and only operational VTOL strike fighter aircraft.
VTOL...Nice! :D
I wonder how it works since the Harrier and F-35 JSF have different ways...
It works similar to the harrier.
It's been good plane...
TV-tropes.com said this plane is the exectpion of soviet stuff. Almost all soviets stuff are inexpensive, powerful, durable, easy to repair, massproducable, except this one
True. This one was not powerful, not durable, hard to repair, unreliable, and generally not a very good airplane.
