Jaky 9 u RAF?

Diskuse

While looking at old issues of Aviation and Cosmonautics from the eighties, I came across a photo of the Wings of Victory, I came across a photo of the Jak 9 aircraft in the RAF marking. There was no mention of this interest in the article, the article dealt only with Soviet fighters and compared their technical parameters, performance and armament with Luftwaffe machines. Does anyone know anything closer? It strikes me as strange why the RAF, perhaps outside the tests, should use Soviet machines, and as far as I know, the RAF squadrons deployed in Murmansk used Hawker Hurricane machines.

Jake 9 was obviously a few in the RAF, see topic

whether or not several of them were flown over or sold from Yugoslavia, or Bulgaria at the Allied airport in Italy at the end of the war, respectively. after the war, one apparently appeared in the RAF as early as 1944. The link also has several photographs

Unfortunately, I do not know, I got to the stack of old Aviation in bulk on the ground. It was torn, mixed, incomplete, just mostly salad editions. This article had two parts in consecutive issues and was definitely published on some round anniversary of the end of the war, so I would guess the years 80, 85?

No longer needed. Uncle Google found someone else's discussion thread on this topic.
With the British cockades, one Jak 9 flew for sure and one maybe. The first, Jak 9D, was in 1945 a personal aircraft ("hack", not combat) James Eric Storrara, commander234.RAF squadrons at the base of Treviso, otherwise equipped with Mustangs. The machine was supposed to receive a gift from a Russian pilot who had stayed in Bari during previous combat operations, after trying and enthusiastic about Jaka. The machine flew with the squadron until its oil tank burst during the flight and the machine was towed to the center of the airport as irreparable and ceremoniously burned.
The second machine should be the Jak 9D, with which the Yugoslav or Bulgarian pilot flew to Bari in 1946. He was then to be burned and thrown into a quarry at the airport to mask traces of escape. Both stories agree on some points, it is possible that it is still one and the same machine.
According to the attached pictures, J. E. Storar's machine, JAS, could be of Bulgarian origin, as it appears to have a number like the Bulgarian aircraft attached.

Edit - Admin, I'm rummaging through it, and you monster just post the lines Smile Buhehééé.


Otherwise, another source questions that JAS belonged to Storrar, who did not get to Italy until 1946, but not as commander of the 234th Squadron, but the 239th Wing.

V jednom z posledních REVI je Storrarův životopis a pokud si vzpomínám, tak opravdu měl po válce používat Jak-9, se kterým bylo uletěno z Bulharska a to jako velitel zmíněného křídla.
Dříve to být nemohlo protože ještě v květnu 45 válčil nad SZ Evropou Smile


Jinak Britové těch Jaků mohli mít více už z dob bojů, např. skupina Jaků se při jednom z kyvadlových náletů B-17 podílela na jejich doprovodu ze SSSR do Itálie, ppzději Rusové využívali pomocná letiště na Jugoslávských ostrovech. Klidně tam mohli nějaký poškozený nechat Smile

I assume that in the above topics it was the only aircraft that was not a gift, but it was a Bulgarian fleeing in 1946, which speaks for newer characters, Storrar's appearance in Italy in 1946 and the same serial number on the Bulgarian and the machine with cockades and the inscription JAS (see photo Yak Bari 46 and Yak 9 JAS), which Storrar also wore on his Mustang. Later it could not be again, due to war cockades.

It is clearly the only aircraft. vvs.hobbyvista.com The type is Jak-9M, not D (you were not even in Italy, there were several DDs that supported the Yugoslav from the airport in Bari). The article explains quite solidly how the mistake was made with Storrar's plane - the info was from him in 1993, ie after almost 40 years, and the old man simply got wrong after so many years and mixed more things together. It was originally a Bulgarian aircraft that flew to the base in Treviso.
once again, the forum changes it to "http: // vvs.hobbyvista.com"/Research/Yakovlev/Storrar/"category/view //"
you will need to copy and delete the quotation marks
