The new generation Yak-130 combat trainer is developed by the Yakovlev Design Bureau (a part of Irkut Corporation) and serially produced at the Irkutsk Aviation Plant.
Yak-130 makes it possible to train pilots for Russian and foreign combat aircraft of the “4+” and “5th”generation at a state-of-the-art level.
In 2016, the Yak-130 aircraft set 9 world records in the rate of climbing to various altitudes with and without payload.
Since February 2010, the Yak-130 aircraft have been delivered to the Russian aerospace forces and are successfully operated in aviation training centers. Since 2011, Yak-130 have been exported to Belarus, Bangladesh, Myanmar and Laos.
