Description:
The Polikarpov I-16 (Russian: ?????????? ?-16) is a Soviet single-engine single-seat fighter aircraft of revolutionary design; it was the world's first low-wing cantilever monoplane fighter with retractable landing gear to attain operational status and as such "introduced a new vogue in fighter design".[2] The I-16 was introduced in the mid-1930s and formed the backbone of the Soviet Air Force at the beginning of World War II. The diminutive fighter, nicknamed "Ishak" or "Ishachok" ("donkey" or "burro") by Soviet pilots, figured prominently in the Second Sino-Japanese War,[3] the Battle of Khalkhin Gol,[3] Winter War and the Spanish Civil War[4][5] – where it was called the Rata ("rat") by the Nationalists or Mosca ("fly") by the Republicans. The Finns called the aircraft Siipiorava "(flying squirrel)".[6] (Source: Wikipedia)
No control groups
4 wing guns, one 50 (ish?) mm cannon
This aircraft was used and is still in use by the Skypark National Defense Guard, as the Air Force had no use for these planes. Several are in Skypark controlled territory, however these will soon be phased out for better jets.
Enjoy!
