Yakovlev YAK-3 with realistic damage system | !!READ DESCRIPTION!!

The Yakovlev Yak-3 (Russian: Яковлев Як-3) was a single-engine, single-seat World War II Soviet fighter. Robust and easy to maintain, it was much liked by both pilots and ground crew. One of the smallest and lightest combat fighters fielded by any combatant during the war, its high power-to-weight ratio gave it excellent performance and it proved to be a formidable dogfighter.

Overstress:
This plane has a realistic damage system for overstress or fight with other players. The wings will fall off when you overstress the plane, this happens when you go down from high altitude and pull hard up. You can decrease the throttle or deploy flaps (while going down, not before) to avoid overstress.
Max. altitude for this plane is 10400m, when you reach it, engine will go to idle mode because it will not have enough air to run.
Speedest altitude is - 3500m - 4500m

Dogfighting:
You can dogfight other players on ground and air vehicles who have our fighting system.

How to fire:
You have to turn on "Arm gun" and "Enable HUD", then you can shoot using hotkey 1. The gauge "Ammo left" shows how much ammo you still have, and the "Gun temperature" dial will show the temperature of gun, make sure that it doesn't reach 250 degrees, otherwise the engine will overheat.
