A small but fast aircraft for it’s era, it was used in most conflicts before the war where it happened to be popular for it’s speed and maneuverability, as well as in aerial battles in 1940, where it did somewhat poorly due to the advancements in aircraft design. It was exported to many countries for use in their air forces. It was also known as the “Mule” inside the Soviet Union.
I had the fuselage of this thing sitting around in my game for awhile so I decided to finish it since I think my building skills are somewhat better than what they were a few months ago when I built this. It’s a really basic fighter, with 4 machine guns in the wings and good maneuverability, but I think it’s engine is pretty powerful on this airframe. It’s a good all-round fighter, honestly. Enjoy!

@animations Kinda!

@Warhammer55 by the way it makes for nice screenshots! Here’s another
@Warhammer55 That was actually my main inspiration for this plane, the save it was in was called the i-17 because I couldn't think of a name at the time XD
(Wait this plane is was what made you made that one 🥺)
I liked the design so much. I made something similar to it based on the I-16
@Warhammer55 That's awesome to hear! I had a lot of fun with this little thing as well!
Neat little plane, had fun with it for a half an hour!
