Mikromir 144-002 Yakovlev UT-1 (3 in 1 Set)

The Yakovlev UT-1 (another designation: AIR-14) was a Soviet training and aerobatic aircraft from the interwar period and World War II. The machine was designed in the low wing configuration, with the fixed undercarriage in the classic configuration. The plane was flown in 1936, and its serial production continued in the years 1937-1940. The drive was provided by a single M-11E engine with 145 HP. The length of the machine was 5.75 meters with a wingspan of 7.3 meters.

The UT-1 aircraft was developed in the design office of Aleksander Yakovlev as a new training machine used primarily for training fighter pilots who switched from biplane to monoplane in the 1930s. The machine was also to be used for aerobatics. In order to shorten the research and development work, the new aircraft was largely based on the UT-2 project already being carried out by the Yakovlev office. UT-1 machines were intensively used to train fighter pilots during World War II, and during it a reconnaissance version was created, designated as UT-1B, armed with two 7.62 mm machine guns and unguided missiles.
