The Yak-1b with the founding inscription was donated by Wolf Messing to the pilots of the 1st Fighter Regiment "Warszawa" and was the most famous aircraft of the Polish People's Army during World War II. The Yak-1 belongs to the family of aircraft developed at the Yakovlev design bureau. Aircraft of this type have been in use in Polish aviation since 1943. The plane earned a reputation as a solid and maintenance-friendly machine. It was popular among both pilots and ground crew. Interestingly, it was one of the smallest and lightest fighters of World War II. A very good power-to-weight ratio gave the aircraft excellent performance and made it an impressive adversary.
