Issue

The roman glyph for U+AB60 LATIN SMALL LETTER SAKHA YAT should look like a upright version of an italic U+0463 CYRILLIC SMALL LETTER YAT; it should not look like a rearranged U+044B CYRILLIC SMALL LETTER YERU, as it does in these fonts. See the Unicode proposal (L2/12-044) for examples.

The italic glyphs for U+0463 CYRILLIC SMALL LETTER YAT and U+AB60 LATIN SMALL LETTER SAKHA YAT are wrong. They should look something like an italic Cyrillic pe with a bowl on the right leg, as opposed to Noto’s glyphs, which are just slanted versions of the upright glyphs. See figure 1 of the Unicode proposal for an italic example.
