In January, 1966 the first serial aircraft Yak-28R went down from the stocks of Irkutsk aircraft manufacturing facilities. The aircraft was built on the base of Yak-28l with substantial construction changes. The radar station "Initsiativa (Initiative) 3" was set on the aircraft. The cockpit enclosure was enlarged and glaring area of forward fuselage was extended for increasing the field of view from the navigator`s cabin. Three compartments for five interchangeable variants of reconnaissance equipment were set instead of the bomb compartment. The tankage was increased by 550 litres. 183 aircrafts in different versions were produced. Yak-28R proved to be the best representative of all the Yak-28 family.
