The project was selected and Yakovlev received the Order of Lenin, 100,000 rubles, and an automobile. The prototype I-26 first flew in January 1940. The fighter was designed to use cheap materials and integral armament, with nose-mounted cannon. It showed immediate promise and was rushed into production even before trials were complete. In June 1941 there were approximately 400 Yak-1s available.
