Russian Air Force set to get 250 Yak-130 trainers…
“We need 250 aircraft of this kind, which will account for 75% of the total training fleet, while the remainder will comprise the MiG-AT Miser combat trainer,” Air Force Commander Vladimir Mikhailov said. Dated 15/06/2006 (RIA Novosti).
got the info from GlobalSecurity.org.
…i was hoping that the MiG-AT would be selected instead of Yak-130 before the selection from the Air Force. oh well… can’t win them all.
