Yakovlev Yak-3 is perhaps one of the best known Soviet fighter aircraft of the WW2 in France for good reason, it was used by the Normandie-Niémen, a fighter group made up of free French pilots fighting on the Eastern Front alongside the 1st Soviet Air Force.

Un chasseur Yakovlev Yak-3 du régiment de chasse 2/30 Normandie-Niémen est préparé par des mécaniciens russes à l'aéroport de Stuttgart avant de s'envoler pour la France - Allemagne - juin 1945
Début juin 1945, un décret de Staline accorde aux pilotes français le droit de s'en retourner avec leurs armes. Il est fait don à chacun de son Yak-3 à titre personnel. Le 20 juin 1945, les 40 aviateurs français retrouvent la France en se posant au Bourget. Ces chasseurs furent dans l'armée de l'air française jusqu'en 1956.
