Yakovlev Yak-6

The Yakovlev Yak-6, NATO reporting name Crib, was a Soviet twin-engined utility aircraft built during the Second World War and used as a short-range light night bomber and a light transport. The Yakovlev bureau was told to design it in April 1942 and the first prototype flew in June 1942. It was a cantilever low-wing monoplane of all-wood construction with a retractable tailwheel undercarriage and two 140 hp Shvetsov M-11F radial engines. The transport version carried four passengers or 500 kg of cargo, and the bomber version could carry up to 500 kg of bombs.
