Is now considered a dweeb plane by some.... :noid
-
News to me. My favorite ride.
-
I've noticed that many of them fly spitfires. :lol
-
IMHO the yak 9u is a fantastic plane. If it had a higher ammo load and longer legs, it would be a monster no question.
-
Of course it is dweeby.
Completely overmodeled. Climbing to 5k from takeoff while accelerating to 500 mph. Outturns a Zero. And somehow almost invulnerable - more than once I pumped 1000 30mm into it without any damage. HT should fix that crap.
If someone's asking for films - my cat ate them :noid
:D

I didnt know that. Well I guess I'll have to quit flying it then if a bunch of teenage cartoon fighter pilots have added it to their Dweeb list. It was fun while it lasted. The Yak is a great airplane and can give a fight to anything in the air.

no dweeby planes, only dweeby pilots

True.
But there are EASY planes, which forgive 90% of all mistakes and still get the kill regardless of the pilot ineptitude or lack of control.
Dweebs tend to gravitate toward these planes. ;)
But I agree the planes are not dweeby.
-
I don't look at the 9-U as being dweeby in the least. It does fly and maneuver very well but has such a light ammo load that most dweeby pilots cant kill much with it before they run out of ammo do to the usual spray and pray method of gunnery lol.
-
The Yak reminds me of the P-38. It does nothing really great but does enough things "good" to be a great little fighter. With the added bonus of speed and toughness even if you lose some firepower. But really, it aint a terrible gun package.
-
The Yak, unlike its stablemate the La7, and like one of those most popular objects of complaint, the Spit16 is a fighter which if your plane cannot outmaneuver it, it can likely engage and disengage from it at will. And that to me is the definition of "fair" in AHII mixed plane combat.
-
I always have great fights with yak pilots even though I blow the crap outta those wood planes. I would rather have yaks anyday over uber spixteens. :aok
-
The gun package is pure evil, your just looking at the wrong Yak.

Flew two Sorties with Kermit last night in the Yak 9u. Some of the best winging tactics I've ever done. The plane is great, I really enjoyed it.
