Parked outside a hangar at the former RAF Bentwaters, Woodbridge, Suffolk, UK. Carries the colours of Soviet Air Force Fighter Regiment 402 IAP. Assembled in 1994 by Strela Aircraft at Orenburg, Russia, closely following Yakovlev's original WW II design but with an all-metal structure. Became D-FJAK in 2002 after some time spent in North America. Imported to the UK by Air Leasing in 2011. Left for Washington State, USA, in 2019 and joined the US register as N102Y.
