EnglishRussia is at it again, this time with a nice feature on the Yak 141. Not much information, but nice photos and even a short video segment. New to me: the Yak-141 could do short takeoffs (note the ground burn in the video). I'd always thought the 141 was limited to vertical or conventional takeoffs...
