About
The Yak‑9UT is a VK‑107–engined variant of the Yak‑9P, equipped with a nose-mounted 37 mm N‑37 cannon (30 rounds) plus two 20 mm B‑20/S cannons. It sacrifices a bit of turn rate for massive punch in its main gun.
Playstyle
Best flown as a turn-fighter with careful, precise firing. It’s slower than typical tier speedsters, so rely on its agility, climb, and devastating burst power. Use tight engagements and aim for one-shot hits.
Pros and Cons
