Talk:Yakovlev Yak-38

message: Yak-41 is quite different aircraft (as compared to 36/38 and Harrier), but
#it continues the development line of 36/38 Yaks
#it fits just the same niche as all the others naval VTOLs
Hence, I'd preserve 36-38-41 line in all the refs. --jno 09:40, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

message: There is an unofficial russian name for 36/38: "" ("naval cucumber"). Do we need to list it on the page(s)? --jno 09:43, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

message: The Yak-38 is not contemporary to or anaologous to the Harrier II. It is equivilant to the original Harrier. The AV-8B is a more recent and much more capable machine. - Aerobird 00:44, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

message: Sorry Bill, but I think it's necessairy to keep a mention of the use of Yak-38 in the film RED DAWN. Not only is this the only appearance of a Yak-38 in a major motion picture, but the use of Yak-38 for securing an inland location deprived of a local airstrip is noteworthy, and tactically interesting. The film makers get a nod for unconventional thinking, and the aircraft's appearance is well worth mentioning here. - Ken keisel (talk) 00:36, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

message: could somebody please explain and/or illustrate how the hot thrust flow from the rear of the turbine gets to the vertical exhaust-nozzels in front of the turbine? thank you! --HilmarHansWerner (talk) 11:02, 5 February 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: It doesn't, the 'vertical exhaust nozzels' are small turbojet engines that take air in at the top of the aircraft, and exhaust it at the bottom. To compare, the F-35 uses the same principle, but uses a liftfan instead of two small jet engines.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.191.190.170 (talk) 10:50, 12 February 2013 (UTC)

message: I check pages listed in :Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of :Yakovlev Yak-38's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 08:16, 2 January 2019 (UTC)
