Closed with consensus to Merge. - The Bushranger Return fireFlank speed 00:02, 25 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

More or less duplicate article with wrong name. Some content should be merged into this one and redirected. --Denniss (talk) 14:24, 6 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Support Oppose No, two entirely separate aircraft developed around the same time using different engines. Read a bit more carefully.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 15:14, 6 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

As I mentioned on the Yak-140 page, I believe you're confusing the pages. Nobody's proposing merging Yak-140 and Yak-1000, but rather the spelling-error-of-manufacturer pages of those two aircraft into the properly Yakovlev Yak-140 and Yak-1000 pages respectively.

Blush, I hadn't even noticed the differences in spelling.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 17:24, 6 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • "Forward and rear fuel tanks held 430 litres (95 imp gal; 110 US gal) and 167 litres (37 imp gal; 44 US gal) respectively" - I think there ought to be a comma before respectively
  • Any page numbers for Gordon et al. for the specifications?
  • What does "Status unknown" in the infobox indicate?
    • You mean Status Unflown?
  • I really only see one thing where coverage could be expanded. Why was the whole project conceived? I'm assuming there's some Cold War arms race stuff for the reason why, but there's no explanation of this in the article. If there's specific background information known about why the Soviets were tinkering around with high-speed aircraft, that would be useful.
    • This is the period before air-to-air missiles when speed was king for fighters, so everybody wanted aircraft fast as possible. But that background really isn't covered in the sources

That's it, I think. Tidy little article. Hog Farm Bacon 01:37, 17 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm, I think that I need to dust off one of my ancient AFV or artillery articles since you've now done two out of the three!--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 10:50, 17 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
