It wanted an aircraft capable of carrying ten passengers over a distance of 800 km (500 mi) at a cruising speed of 290 km/h (180 mph) that would be powered by a pair of 700-horsepower (520 kW) <a href="/wiki/Shvetsov_ASh-21" title="Shvetsov ASh-21">Shvetsov ASh-21</a> <a href="/wiki/Radial_engine" title="Radial engine">radial engines</a>.

The specification was revised at the same time to specify a speed no less than 350 km (220 mi) at sea level and that the military version was to mount a dorsal <a href="/wiki/Gun_turret" title="Gun turret">turret</a> with a single 20 mm (0.79 in) gun.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The Yak-16 was a low-winged, twin-engined monoplane that closely resembled the Li-2.

The control surfaces of the tail were fabric-covered although the tail itself was metal-skinned. The two-<a href="/wiki/Spar_(aviation)" class="mw-redirect" title="Spar (aviation)">spar</a> metal wing was built in three sections, a rectangular center section and two trapezoidal outer panels. The main undercarriage legs retracted forward into the engine <a href="/wiki/Nacelle" title="Nacelle">nacelles</a>, with the wheels remaining semi-exposed, while the tailwheel was fixed.

It passed its State acceptance trials in early 1948 at the NII GVF (<i>Nauchno-Issledovatel'skiy Institut Grazhdanskogo Vozdushnogo Flota</i>—Scientific Test Institute for Civil Air Fleet).<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The military transport version, often called the Yak-16-II, differed from the passenger version as it carried a UTK-1 ball turret that mounted a 12.7 mm (0.50 in) <a href="/wiki/Berezin_UB" title="Berezin UB">Berezin UB</a>T <a href="/wiki/Machine_gun" title="Machine gun">machine gun</a> immediately behind the flight deck, the cargo cabin floor was reinforced, the vertical tail was slightly larger and the fuselage was slightly longer.

It could carry seven paratroopers, ten fully equipped troops or six stretcher cases and a medical attendant. It was fitted with a large clamshell door on the left side of the fuselage to facilitate cargo loading. This door had a smaller, inward-opening door set into its forward half. Three TsDMMM-120 supply containers could be fitted on racks underneath the wing center section and it was fitted with a glider tow hook.<sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The Yak-16-II passed its manufacturer's trials in April 1948 and was submitted for the State acceptance trials shortly afterwards. These revealed several deficiencies that caused the horizontal tail area to be increased and <a href="/wiki/Deicing" title="Deicing">deicing</a> equipment to be fitted on the leading edges of the wings and tail. It was resubmitted for another round of State acceptance trials which approved it for production. However, it was not selected for production as the <a href="/wiki/Antonov_An-2" title="Antonov An-2">Antonov An-2</a> was thought to be more versatile in both roles.
