Wiki

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 attain operational status and as such "introduced a new vogue in fighter design." 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, the Battle of Khalkhin Gol and the Spanish Civil War – where it was called the Rata ("Rat") by the Nationalists or Mosca ("Fly") by the Republicans.
Also, I picked the name "Mosca" because it sounds appealing and cool tho.


Armaments:

2x 7.62mm ShKAS Machine guns
2x 20mm ShVAK cannons
6x RS-82 Rockets


Powerplant:

1 × Shvetsov M-63 supercharged air-cooled radial engine, 820 kW (1,100 hp) driving a two-blade propeller

May the Russian Bias be with you!

    @Spitfirelad05 sorry late response. That meme fits some Soviet planes because of too much Russian bias not only in WT but also in real life
