Home > Yakovlev Yak-26

The Yakovlev Yak-26 was a tactical bomber version of the Soviet Yakovlev Yak-25 ( NATO reporting name 'Flashlight') developed in 1956. Although it bore a clear resemblance to the Yak-25, a glazed nose for a navigator/bombardier replaced the Yak-25's radome, increasing the crew to three. The Nudelman NL-37 cannon was replaced with four NR-23 23 mm weapons, and an internal weapons bay was added for 1,000 kg (2,205 lb) of bombs. Additional bombs could be carried on underwing pylons.

Although flown at the Tushino air show on 24 June 1956, only nine were produced, and the type did not enter service.
