The bureau formed in 1934 under aircraft designer Alexander Sergeyevich Yakovlev as OKB-115 (the design bureau has its own production base at the facility No.115), but dates its birth from 12 May 1927, the day of maiden flight of the AIR-1 aircraft developed within [citation needed] the Department of Light Aircraft of GUAP (Head Agency of Aviation Industry) under the supervision of A.S. Yakovlev.

The Yak-140 was developed around the Mikulin AM-11 turbojet (rated at 40 kN (9,000 lb f) thrust dry and 50 kN (11,000 lb f) with afterburner) to meet a specification issued in 1953 requiring a supersonic fighter with a maximum speed of 1,650–1,750 km/h (1,030–1,090 mph) and a range of 1,800 km (1,100 mi). It was to be armed with three 30 mm ...

Even from the Gordon quote above, it seems clear that "Yak-141" is the designation that Yakovlev (temporarily?) applied to a single Yak-41 used in the record-breaking flights in 1991. In other words, the designation is real enough, regardless of the motivations behind its creation. The only mistake is to apply it to all Yak-41s.
