Within the Yak family it's only the Yak-9 series that have this problem with the armored glass (they all have it with the top of the gunsight). The very similar Yak-1B does not, the fairly similar Yak-7 and 1 do not either. Was the Yak-9 the first Yak in game?

I think the Yak 9 is the earliest plane in the game to have armoured glass windscreens, despite Hurricanes, Wildcats, P40s having them earlier in real life.
