This was a fun little project that did not take a very long time. Now for Wiki time! The Polikarpov I-16 was a Soviet fighter aircraft of revolutionary design; it was the world's first low-wing cantilever monoplane fighter with retractable landing gear to have attained operational status and as such " introduced a new vogue in fighter design.-Wikipedia
This does not currently have retractable gear but you can add it, just give me credit.
