Yak-141 Freestyle

Hi everybody,

What do you think of the Yak-141 Freestyle? It’s the first supersonic STOVL a/c. Maybe if the STOVL versions of the JSF project fail (I’m not yet convinced that any of the designs will work properly) they could use a modified Freestyle (with Western avionics) to replace the USMC and RN/RAF Harriers.

Best regards,

Ference.
