Eremins Yak-3 A Premium Fighter for the USSR at Rank III

Peasant and Pilot: Eremins Yak-3

Vehicle History This Yak-3 is a personalized aircraft with a dedicated inscription gifted to Major Boris Eremin by collective farmer Ferapont Golovatov in May 1944. During the difficult times of war, the family, relatives and neighbors of the peasant collected 100,000 rubles that were transferred to the Soviet government for the construction of the fighter. The Yak-3 was the second aircraft gifted to Eremin. In the winter of 1942, Ferapont Golovatov sponsored the construction of the Yak-1B fighter, in which Eremin scored 8 aerial victories. On his personal Yak-3, ace pilot Boris Eremin scored 6 aerial victories and celebrated victory over Germany in Prague. After the war, his plane was transferred to the exhibition of the Central House of Aviation, and after restoration in 1958 to the Yakovlev Design Bureau Museum. In 1991, the plane arrived to the United States, where it was located at the Museum of Flying in Santa Monica, California. It was only in 2014 when Eremins Yak-3 returned to his homeland in Russia, and is currently on display at the Vadim Zadorozhny Museum of Technology in Moscow. In War Thunder, the Yak-3 is considered one of the best piston fighters for combat at low and medium altitudes. This aircraft is distinguished by excellent maneuverability characteristics, high acceleration and climb rates, and good energy retention when turning. Eremins Yak-3 is a modification of earlier production variants, armed with one 20 mm ShVAK cannon and a heavy machine gun, with all weapons installed in the nose, greatly helping with aiming. Due to its relatively small ammunition amount, the Yak-3 is best used for going after fighters, where its possible to utilize the maneuverability and speed of this aircraft successfully.

Discounts on purchasing stages using Golden Eagles

Unfinished stages can be purchased for Golden Eagles, but If youre significantly close to completing a stage, its price will now be significantly reduced. Lets say you have earned 85% of the required mission points to complete a stage, then the price of purchasing this stage will be halved. If youre near the finish line for a stage and are at 95% progress, then the price will be reduced by five times. For example, if youve scored 30,000 mission points, then the price for unlocking this stage will be 349 Golden Eagles. If youve scored 33,500 mission points, then youll only need to pay 139 Golden Eagles. Remember to keep this in mind if you cannot complete a stage on time!
