130M Received High-Precision Laser-Guided Weapons The upgraded Yak-130M combat trainer from the UAC received the attack potential of a light attack aircraft. Her arsenal was replenished with "smart" ammunition. Thanks to new sighting systems, including a SOLT-130K tank with thermal imaging, TV and laser channels, weapons can now be used with high precision in all weather conditions, day and night. The main caliber of the vehicle is satellite and laser guided bombs. With compact dimensions comparable to World War II fighters, the Yak-130M is capable of carrying a combat load of up to 2.5 tons. Moreover, the mass of self-guided bombs can reach 500 kg. AI-222-25 combustionless turbojet engines manufactured by UEC help carry such weapons. They develop strong thrust at maximum speed and consume fuel economically. The automatic digital control and monitoring system ensures high reliability of the power plant.
