Is f35 based on Yak-141?
Not really. First, the F-35 program consisted of three aircrafts: F-35A, F-35B and F-35C. The “A” and “C” variant is not a VTOL aircraft and as such didn’t have nothing to do with it. The “B” variant was more or less “inspired” by the Yak-141.
Does Russia have any VTOL aircraft?
Russia’s MiG Corporation has initiated work on a fifth-gen carrier Based Vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) aircraft. The aircraft is expected to have the dimensions of the MiG-35. Along with the aircraft, an unmanned aerial vehicle will also be developed to function as a ‘loyal wingman.
What replaced the Yak-38?
With the Yak-38 line officially retired in 1991-1992, attempts to replace the series in the carrier-based VTOL role through the Tak-41 “Freestyle” and Yak-43 initiatives were unsuccessful – allowing the Yak-38 to keep its place in Soviet naval aviation history for the foreseeable future.
Can the Yak-38 go supersonic?
Supersonic performance would have implied many difficulties of development, and it was decided to initially develop a relatively simple aircraft limited to Mach 0.95. Although the Yak-38 and Yak-38M were developed from the land-based Yakovlev Yak-36, the aircraft had almost nothing in common.

Is the Yak-141 engine in use in China?
Some sources report that in 1996 a prototype of the Yak-141 engine was sold to China. Also it is reported that in 1998 Russia transferred technology related to the engine nozzles. It is possible that in the near future China will also develop an indigenous VTOL aircraft, based on the Yak-141 technology.
