The Jakowlew Jak-14 ( Russian Яковлев Як-14 , NATO code name Type 24 ) is a Soviet cargo glider .
history
It was created in 1947 as a competitor to the Ilyushin Il-32 and was first presented to the public in 1949. It could carry 3.5 tons of payload and was intended for the transport of military equipment. The loading was carried out through a bow gate similar to the German Me 323 .
413 copies of the Jak-14 were produced and were in service with the Soviet Air Force until the 1950s . When the glider era came to an end, it was replaced by helicopters and transport planes . The USSR also delivered some machines to the ČSSR , which they used under the designation NK-14 (for Nákladní kluzák, glider).
construction
The Jak-14 was a braced shoulder -wing monoplane with a box-shaped fuselage in a composite construction. The cabin on the left side of the fuselage should give the pilot the greatest possible all-round view. The tail unit in normal construction was braced and consisted of a wooden frame with fabric covering. The nose landing gear of the Jak-14 was rigid.
