The Yakovlev Yak-9D was a Soviet fighter used during World War II, especially on the Eastern Front. This aircraft was an improved version of the popular Yak-9, distinguished by an increased operational range. Its production began in 1943, and units equipped with the VK-105PF engine and an enlarged fuel tank were used for bomber escort and air combat. These fighters were an important part of Soviet air superiority in the final years of the war.
