'Nother obscure plane. Feel free to recommend planes for me to build. A low wing single-seat all-wooden monoplane fighter with a closed cockpit and retractable landing gear with a tail wheel.Designed in OKB-301 led by the “triumvirate” of aviation designers – S.A Lavochkin, V.P. Gorbunov and M.I. Gudkov.The I-301's airframe consisted entirely of wood. All its parts were attached with glue, without nails or screws. The most crucial parts were processed with Bakelite lacquer, a phenol formaldehyde resin. This treatment increased the wood's durability and fire resistance due to a slight increase in its specific weight.
