none the less, im gonna google my @ss off now for a sec, to see if there is something to say about that
EDIT: 2 sec later:
it might be because the gatlin is 30mm and the yak cannon 37mm
But I think im gonna go for the fact that the empty weight of the yak-9t was 2300kg... and of the A-10 it was 21000kg..  .
same thing: try mounting a flak cannon on a bicycle, think you might notice the recoil a bit more, than on a tiger tank
Does make you wonder what would happen if you mounted the A-10 gatlin of the yak  would it fly backwards ??

I'm also going to have to say because the Yak-9T was cloth, wood, and lightweight chromoli-steel. While on the other hand, the A-10 is made of much heavier steel etc.
