Yak-9U, the Bringer of Sorrow

[leonid]

All you of Western affection, prepare for dark days.  The time of Sorrow shall soon fall upon you!  Woe unto those who tarry below 5,000 meters for they shall know the wrath of the 9!  They shall rend their shirts upon their chest, pull viciously at their hair, and the sound of a multitude of gnashing teeth will fill the air like locusts.  Verily, I say unto thee, the day of the 9 will be upon the Western heathens, and they shall know the meaning of suffering as not even an F4U-C could ever possibly unleash!

Prepare! for the Day of the 9!!!

Leonid, my friend ...
are you talking about the prototype or the production model?

{GATT ducks, runs away, slips and falls badly)

[Vermillion]

Lets put it this way Gatt    

If the AH Yak-9U does 435mph then    

If it comes in at 417 mph....   then I may have to buy a case of ammunition and find a tall tower near the HTC offices and scream "American Elitist Pony Conspiracy !!!!" as I ... errr say "hi" to Pyro     Muhahahhaahaha

Could someone hand me that bottle of Prozac?

{Just kidding for those of you thats humor impaired}

Seriously, I do hope we get to see the -UT armament options, since there were more T's produced than F4U-1C's, and I believe also more than the 30mm armed 190A8's but I'm not sure. And I don't expect to see a seperate variant (-UT) out of a -9U.

What kind of liquor do you guys at HTC like, agian?

Oh and SuperFly something in a paint scheme like this would be really cool, and yes I know thats a Yak-3, instead of a -9U

Leonid-

You forgot the part about the "throwing of ash upon their heads, and woe unto the mothers that suckle their young."  

[[Sg]ShotGun]

5ooo meters!!! who flies belo 5000 meters in AH ???

[Citabria]

well normally I would not be scared but hearing that from leonid scares the crap outa me.  

just one more thing for the poor P-38 driver to deal with  

[Sorrow[S=A]]

YES! And thus my CHARIOT shall fall upon the wicked and my REVENGE shall be at hand!
  Woe betide those who come before me...  
for they shall know the meaning of sorrow

[Gorf]

Shotgun,

Thats 5000 meter bud!  Multiply that by 3 to get feet (approxmiatly, actually I think it is 1 meter is = 2.79 feet) SO your looking at approx. 15000 feet.

Gorf out!

[SnakeEyes]

And the Ponies and Thunderbolts didst loitereth at 30K, ever outpacing the Yak-9U -- chosen plane of the gods -- and, as the Yak's fuel supply didst dwindleth its godless pilots doth descend to again settle into the busom of the Rodina... and it was THEN that the cowardly Thunderbolts and Ponies didst dropeth out of the heavens onto the hapless, fuel-less Yaks, and with heady abandon didst they dispatchth the Yaks.

Oh... and it was good.

Snakeyes,

Now if we could GET the THUNDERBOLT!!..(SIGH)

Gorf

[Vermillion]

1 meter = 3.281 feet

So 5,000 meters is about 16,400 ft. True most fights start about 20k now, but I think the Yak will do ok.

Gatt, LOL!!!

SnakeEyes & Other Western Heathen:
Two things will suck you down to the ground:
1) APCs carrying troops to your bases.
2) Yak-9Us opening up on you as you dive upon those APCs.

Woe unto the western heathens!  The Day of Sorrow NEARS!!!  The Day of the 9!!!!
