FS2004/FSX Polikarpov I-153 Warbird bipe
The ultimate development of the Polikarpov fighter biplane was the powerful I-153 Chaika, with retractable landing gear, either wheels or skis folding to the rear. Coming on line in 1938 some thousands served in the Far East, Finland and on the Eastern Front.
The I-153 was an anachronism, entering service at the time when the biplane had long since been eclipsed by the monoplane fighter.
This is a model of an I-153 as flown in the Russian-China conflict at
Khalkin Gol in August 1939.GMAX model by A.F.Scrub. Source included.
