Yak-28P Firebar ejection seat?

[J.C. Bahr]

Okay, what ejection seat did the Yak-28P utilize and does Neomega or somebody make one? The Amodel ones are garbage!

I can't find this information in the Aerofax book, but perhaps I'm just looking in the wrong place.

At the time of the Yak-28 (and -27 etc) most of the design bureaux designed and made their own ejection seats.

Looking at my photos at :- http://66.226.87.135/yak-28.htm the Yak seat looks a bit like the KM-1 fitted to the MiG-21 - it has a similar deeply dished headrest.

It isn't completely 100% accurate, but my choice would be a KM-1

All recon\bomber wersion had K-5M set for navigator and K-7MN for pilot. Yak-28P initialy had two K-7MN seats, after modernisation to Yak-28PM some part of its had two KK-2 seats.

K-5 and K-7 - Yakovlew bureau design seats, click here, but it is big file

Thanks guys. Think I'm going to go with the KK-2 since those were used in Yak-25's and the -28 was a follow-on. They seem to look similar to the ones in pics of the -28.
