The Yakovlev AIR-16, also known as the LT-2 or Yakovlev No.16, was a four-seat cabin monoplane touring aircraft designed and built in the Soviet Union in 1937. It was intended to be powered by a 220 hp Renault Bengali 6 engine, but it was never flown. Accounts differ on why, although Yevgeniy Adler, who succeeded Kotov, wrote in his memoirs that inherent design weaknesses could not be rectified. The AIR-16 belongs to the late 1930s family of Yakovlev touring and sport aircraft that followed the AIR-11.
