The LaGG-3 was a Soviet single-seat fighter aircraft used during World War II, developed by Lavochkin, Gorbunov and Gudkov, after whom it was named (LaGG). Derived from the predecessor model LaGG-1, the LaGG-3 was designed to improve aircraft performance while maintaining a lightweight structure built primarily of wood, as aluminum was a scarce resource in the Soviet Union during the conflict.
Although it was reliable, the LaGG-3 was gradually replaced by the Lavochkin La-5, which mounted a more powerful radial engine and filled performance gaps compared to enemy aircraft.
