Hi Xan!
I don't know these kits, but I don't think they are the same. The picture in the assembly guide of the first kit isn't Yak-3 at all, that is Yak-9U (look at the landing gear legs!) The picture in the second kit represents ordinary Yak-3, with VK-105PF-2 engine.

I think both kits are old enough, so I don't think they are very accurate. Especially the first one (if they couldn't distinquish Yak-9U from the Yak-3, and if they could do such a pilot's seat on the Yak...)
