Has Anyone Got Climb Rate Charts For The Yak 1?

I found something online but have no idea where it came from. I'd like to test in game climb rates against historical data.

 

If anyone has charts it would be much appreciated.

Nice chart.

 

15 m/s is really poor.  Even worse then RL Fw 190 A-3 16  m/s.  Yak-1 was not even comparable with 109.  More close to Fw 190 at 1.3 Ata but even Fw 190 was better at 1.3 Ata  not mention emergency 1.4 Ata.

the flight test was done with fully opened radiators (overheating of oil and water).

It is understandable casue Yak-1 had problem with overheat at full RPMs with M-105 PF engine. I read that after every one or two kilometer in climb there was need to level flight and cool engine.

 

For comparison climb rates Yak-1 vs German planes:

 

-  Yak-1 ( 2700 RPMs)  -  15 m/s

 

- Fw 190 A-3 -   1.32 Ata - 16 m/s

 

- 109 F- 4 1.32 Ata -  18.5 m/s

 

- 109 G-2 1.32 Ata -  21 m/s

190A3 in BOS is a dog in climb. Hi Kwiatek, Could you send such information to dev team and to see their response?

No im rather not interested as much.  I know their atitutude. It is enough to look for Yak-1 and LAgg-3 performance and handling in BOS.

I've found these 2 charts.

 

Also interesting to note the Mig-3's performance at higher altitudes.

The problem is if they leave Yak-1 's over-performed like this how about the scenario of BF109G6 VS LA5FN during 1943 -1944? This is a simulation not other kind of genre.
