I-16 type 27
Sorry for the 9 day wait :/ most of that time was spent figuring out what plane to make, and decided on this one, i have been working on this for 3 days and there were alot of difficultys that i had to get through, mostley due to the fuselage blocks and the techniques i had to use such as prop mashing and manipulating fuselage props, although this didn't come out quite how i wanted it to, for instance it needs more thrust and its not as detailed as i wanted to make it, anyways, hope you enjoy! Info: A single-seat cantilever monoplane with a composite construction and retractable landing gear. The I-16 Type 27 is a variant of the I-16 Type 18 fighter equiped with an M-62 engine and the same wing-mounted cannon armament as on the I-16 Type 17, which was created based on the I-16 Type 10 in the same way. The I-16 Type 27 was powered by the 9-cylinder air-cooled Shvetsov M-62 radial engine with a rated output of 800 hp. The engine possessed a double-speed central drive supercharger which increased its altitude limit. The plane was equipped with the AV-1 variable-pitch propeller with a larger propeller spinner. The I-16 Type 27's armament consisted of two 20 mm rapid-firing Shpitalny-Vladimirov ShVAK aviation cannons with 150 shells each. The cannons were located in the wing's central section outside the propellar interference zone. The fuselage housed a portion of the cannons' ammunition. The cannons were fed by tubes located behind the fuselage's first former and running across the central wing section along a forward longeron. The new cannons led to an increase in the airplane's weight and a corresponding reduction in its flight characteristics. For this reason, although the I-16 Type 27 was capable of aerial combat, it was mainly used to attack ground targets or as an interceptor. The I-16 Type 27 was produced in small numbers in 1939. Only 59 were built in total. It saw limited use in the first stage of the Great Patriotic War, primarily as an attack aircraft.
