The title explains itself.
I just want to know what vehicles would be put there and their B.R.
Perhaps Yak-130, I’m just speculating however :)

Hard to say at what BR’s though.

Undertiered as usual.
The Yak-130 and 131 are the most interesting I think, seem like they’d be a lot of fun.
Undertiered? We’re talking Soviets, not Americans.
Just cause American props are undertiered doesn’t mean everyone is.

I don’t think most of those yaks are going to be anything other than event/prem, and those always come out busted is the trend.
Also, I can name a dozen undertiered USSR planes.
No, the trend is vehicles are balanced.
Exceptions to rules aren’t trends.
Yeah… let me remind you that I don’t think you know what the word balanced means, or are capable of accurately judging a vehicle’s capability. Straight up.

In theory, the Yak-28 could be placed inbetween the Yak-38M & Yak-141 however there is two main issues that hold it back, firstly the Yak-28 can only use AAM’s and the AAM’s are mediocre at best (R-3S’s, R-3R’s, R-13M’s and R-8’s), the only other weapon I know of that the Production models utilize is S-5K rocketpods but I only see them mounted on the Recce & ECM variants of Yak-28. Which leads to the second Issue, because of it’s limited loadout the Yak-28 would either be completely useless or completely broken if we only use the loadout that the Fighter/Interceptor variants use depending on how it is balanced or combine the weapon loadouts of the Fighter/Interceptor variants with the Recce variant but doing that will anger the historical accuracy puritans in the process. Because of that unless the prototype variants of the Yak-28’s like the Yak-28-64 for example can utilize autocannons i highly doubt that the production Yak-28 Interceptor variants will be in game. The thing is that it is not the only fighter that is like this, the MiG-25’s and Su-15’s suffer from a similar issue though they do not have it as bad as the Yak-28 and this is not exclusively a USSR aircraft problem since you see a similar dilemma in some of the American Century fighters for example.
The Yak-130 & 131 can definitely be added but it would more likely to be in the Ground Attacker line since the Yak-130’s & 131’s are designed more around as a Advanced Trainer and Ground Attack aircraft than a true fighter aircraft
One possible addition is the Yak-26, a variant of the Yak-25 designed for a fighter-bomber role as an analogue to the French Vautour, however like with the Yak-130 & 131 it is possible if not very like for it to be in the bomber line instead of the Yak line

Sounds like you’re closing yourself off to different perspectives in fear of information you buy into being incorrect.
I bet you think the German Mig-29 is inferior to the Soviet one.
I bet you think the German Mig-29 is inferior to the Soviet one.
Why on earth would I think that, in fact it’s better because it’s like ~200kg lighter

Then you agree with at least a portion of my underlying understanding.
can you explain what you’re referring to that I should be understanding
That weight matters when it comes to aircraft.
it can be MiG-29K.
Yak-38M/41 are naval same MiG-29K
Yak-131 doesn’t exist
It’s a planned armed version of the Yak-130 to replace the Su-25 fleet.
thats a normal takeoff and landing strike aircraft…
It’s project (wasn’t even bulit) of attack version of Yak-130 that was rejected in 2012 due to lack of armor.
