LaGG-3-37 "Red 90" 42 IAP winter 1942-43.  Here is a photo of it:

Problem is, I can't find anything for the top portion of the wings and such.  Guess I will just keep looking.

I dont have any more pics of that Yak, I dont think. I just remembered that one because I too wanted to do it before I fell out of love with the Yak.
The aircraft you have pictured, like Krusty said, is not a Yakovlev at all. It's a LaGG-3, which is an inline-engined predecessor to the La-5. It has nothing in common with any Yakovlev beside that it was in service during Op:Barbarossa. Its got quite a cannon, hasnt it?

That must be a 9-Ewe.
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.

Thanks Krusty!  I missed that when I was reading the article on it and it didn't even click.
