About this aircraft

  • The Luftwaffe obtained an advanced La-5FN equipped with a more powerful ASh-82FN engine with direct fuel injection. This engine significantly increased the aircraft’s speed, climb rate, and maneuverability at low altitudes. Its twin 20 mm ShVAK cannons are a reliable tool for winning air battles!
