His post was a bit vague, but he hyperlinked "Yaks" to a page about the animal version of yak and not the Yakovlev aircraft, so it may have been an attempt at humor. He might have been trying to say in jest that the Yakovlev fighters should handle more like the yak animal - sluggishly, since they share the same name.
I dunno. Hard to read, but his English is better than my Russian!
