Soviet Yak 32 Created for Inverted Flights

Yak-32 (“Mantis” according to the NATO classification) is a Soviet jet-propelled trainer aircraft, one-seat version of Yak-30. Intended for inverted flights Yak-32 can stunt with prolonged negative overload. It is only 300 kg lighter than Yak-30, but its flying abilities are better. Yak-32 became the world first training and sports aircraft equipped with an ejection seat. The aircraft has never been serially produced.

I am sorry to say but sports aircraft in the former USSR ? :lol:

To my knowledge there were no private airplanes in the USSR :unsure:

So this is just a military trainer no more no less

Then the claim first trainer with injection seat.

The Dornier 335 Pfeil - V12 Trainer version had injection seats ( 1944 ! )
