Russian aerobatic aircraft Yak-130

The Yak-130 is a Russian combat training aircraft developed by the Yakovlev Design Bureau to replace L-39 trainer in the Russian Air Force. The number “02” is carried by the first pre-series aircraft Yak-130. In 2013, this aircraft was repainted in traditional colors of the Yakovlev Design Bureau: red and white. Important Yakovlev planes were painted in red-white, such as Yak-18, on which Yuri Gagarin made his first flight, and Yak-52, on which most active Russian fighter pilots were trained.
