The 1947 Yakovlev Yak-25 was an early turbojet-powered fighter built by the Yakovlev bureau. The Council of Ministers directive of 11 March 1947 asked for a straight-winged fighter like the Yak-19 but powered by a Rolls-Royce Derwent V, and the bureau produced the Yak-25 quickly. It was the first Soviet fighter with a fully pressurised cockpit, air conditioning, a jettisonable canopy and hydraulic airbrakes on the fuselage. Its thin laminar-flow wings, hydraulically powered flaps and swept tail followed the Yak-19 layout. The designation was later reused for a different interceptor.
