12 GIAP Yak-7B
« on: October 02, 2013, 04:56:01 AM »
Thanks to Lyric1 who supplied some of the info for this skin.

This Yak-7A was one of a squadron of aircraft donated by subscriptions from the Soviet Communist Party's youth movement in 1942 and assigned to 12 GIAP. Each aircraft featured the Youth Movement's flag emblem overlaid on the fuselage star. Also the name of the specific organisation that supplied the donations for that particular aircraft was painted in red and white on each side of the fuselage. This aircraft was donated by the Novosbirskii Komsomol.

A Yak-7A is considered an acceptable substitute for our Yak-7B as there is little external difference between them.

Great Job!
There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!
