You mean Yak-141 technology... Nothing cool in Yak 38 technology comparing to Harrier.Actually Yak-38 technology was sold to the US and was used to create F-35

That's interesting!
were they helping on official capacity or otherwise?
Why was Yak 141 scraped? could it still be revived?
I think it was a technological masterpiece at the time and still holds a lot of promise.
i think some eng.were hired when Russia was in the dark years.Probably helping on nozzle techno,since Yak 141 was a pioneer and also the fact that it employed quite a quantity of composite materials
Great thread!
I want to contribute:

Yep, you`re right. Sorry.
At Sevmash "lay the fourth submarine of the Borey class"
In 2009, the factory "Sevmash in Severodvinsk will bookmark fourth strategic nuclear submarine of the type" Yuri Dolgoruky "Project 955/955A" Northwind ", reported RIA Novosti with reference to the administration of the company. Currently, the "Sevmash" is building two more missile project - Alexander Nevsky and Vladimir Monomakh.
According to the source agencies, laying a new nuclear submarine will be timed to the Day of the fleet at the end of July or the 70 th anniversary of "Sevmash" in December 2009. The names of the next submarine has not, however, likely will continue the tradition of assigning submarine of this project the names of great Russian military commanders. Overall, according to the Defense Ministry, Russia for the Navy planned to build up to six similar missile.
Recall that the leading ship Project 955/955A "Yuri Dolgoruky" in March 2009 began mooring tests. They are held to determine the navigability and performance vehicles.This stage typically takes place in the port or factory conditions without access to the sea.. Navigation missile tests, according to the source said, is scheduled for June this year, although previously reported that in March, had to begin firing the main armament submarine.
Note that the output at the factory ship the test was scheduled for 2008, but was postponed because of more stringent requirements "Rosatom" to the safe operation of nuclear reactors due to the incident with the submarine "Herpa" in the Sea of Japan. Delay is also associated with an unsuccessful missile launches "Bulava", which was held on 23 December 2008.It should be the main armament the ship.
In March, the Defense Ministry reported that the cause of the failure of the test has become defective cartridge.Nevertheless, the commission to investigate the failed launch has continued its work, and the final cause of self-destruction has not yet been established. Test Start "Bulava" tentatively will continue during the summer of 2009 from aboard the nuclear submarine Dmitry Donskoy ", then this will be used for the new missile" Yuri Dolgoruky. This year, according to the military, will be a minimum of five tests.

object 167M, сould be mass-produced instead of Т 64, judging by drawings the crew could charge the gun in a case if in autoloader shells have come to an end that in Т 64\72\80\90 to do very difficult
Although they somewhat appear similar. They are completely different planes.
Different power plant (1 vs 3 engines).
Different landing gear.
Different wing to fuselage configuration
..and just pretty much everything else.
There are different reasons for the scrapping of the Yak 141.
Major reasons where the hot gasses of the engines was being sucked in again when the Yak was in hover mode and ground erosion (Bad thing when you lift and land constantly on a flightdeck aboard a carrier/aviation cruiser.)
Other main reason was just the lack of money since the SU fell apart and the 90's struck hard on defence budget.
Other reason could be that since Kuznetsov was made, regular aircraft could lift off it (SU-33 SU-25 etc.)
Dont think so. The planes usefullnes is over and it would simply cost too much to reactivate the project.could it still be revived?
That is aside from the problem that many Yak scientists who were working on the Yak have moved on to other things. Some off them are in other countries. Some off them are dead or are working for other companies.
It would be like building the 707 again if you catch my drift.
I fully agree with the former but disagree with the latter.I think it was a technological masterpiece at the time and still holds a lot of promise.
Great plane but progress in the world made it kinda obselent.
Thanks for correcting!
Looks good in my opinion.AFAIK that is a ukrainian modernisation of AK-74 by Fort.
Lets post some pics:

What is the status of this project?:
Thanks for the info.
Russian Airforce Recently said that they could shoot down the North Korean Missile if need be.
Just wondering, does anybody know which Russian missile system that can be used for that?
I'm thinking the S-300 series and the new S-400 missiles.
