Description
  • The Yakovlev Yak-3 was a World War Ii Soviet fighter aircraft introduced in 1944.

  • It was one of the smallest and lightest major combat fighters of the conflict but was robust, easy to maintain and much loved by pilots and ground crew alike.
  • The Yak-3 was developed from the original Yak-1 but refinements led to its success against enemy aircraft, particularly when used on the Russian front against the Luftwaffe from 1944 onwards, as part of the Normandie-Niemen group.
  • Our Yak-3 is as piloted by Roger Sauvage, born of a white French mother and black father from Martinique, who was killed in battle in Wwi.
  • Roger Sauvage served very successfully with the French Air Force - L'Armée de l'Air but when the Armistice was signed, he left for North Africa where he stayed until the formation of the Normandie Regiment, the Free French Normandie-Niemen unit of French flyers who were deployed to fight the Germans on the Russian front in 1944.
  • Casualties were initially very high but finally the regiment was given the superior Yak-3s and their success increased substantially.
  • Roger Sauvage survived the war and stayed in the French Air Force.
  • He retired in 1968 to Nice, where he died in 1977, aged just 60.
  • Our replica of Roger Sauvage's aircraft with its Soviet markings is painted in a sea grey and green camouflage scheme with pale blue underside.
  • The markings along the fuselage, underwings and tail rudder are printed in red and white.
  • The detailed propeller spinner is red, white and dark blue with black propeller blades.
  • Gun barrels are also black, whilst a finishing touch sees the exhaust pipes in rusty brown.Oxford ist der führende britische Hersteller von Miniaturmodellen im Die Cast Bereich.
