1. Title: Yakovlev Yak-130D RA-43130 - 01 White at RAF Fairford, July 2012 2. Description: This photograph captures the Yakovlev Yak-130D RA-43130 - 01 White during its visit to Royal Air Force (RAF) Fairford in Gloucestershire, England, on the 7th of July 2012. The Yak-130D, a two-seat advanced jet trainer and light attack aircraft, is produced by Yakovlev Design Bureau in Russia. 3. Background: The Yak-130D, with the serial number 01, is seen here in its pristine white livery. This particular aircraft was delivered to the Russian Air Force in 2011 and was later sent to the United Kingdom for participation in various international military exercises. RAF Fairford, an active Royal Air Force station, served as a temporary home for the Yak-130D during its stay in the UK. 4. Technical Details: The Yak-130D is a versatile aircraft designed for both training and light attack missions. It is powered by two AL-31F turbofan engines, which provide a maximum thrust of 12,500 lbs. The aircraft has a maximum speed of 670 mph and a range of approximately 1,550 miles. Its advanced avionics and weapons systems make it an effective platform for training future military pilots and providing close air support. 5. Significance: The presence of the Yakovlev Yak-130D at RAF Fairford in 2012 marked an important moment in international military cooperation. The visit allowed the UK and Russian militaries to strengthen their relationships and share valuable training experiences. This photograph serves as a testament to the enduring partnerships between nations and the role of advanced aircraft in shaping the future of military aviation.
