The Yakovlev Yak-16, (NATO reporting name Cork), was a Soviet civil transport aircraft that first flew in 1948.

A small civil transport aircraft built in limited numbers, it closely resembled the Li-2 (an adaptation of the Douglas DC-2), but was smaller and simpler. The military used some as trainers and liaison aircraft. It was powered by two Shvetsov ASh-21 engines.
