Purpose and Compatibility

The aircraft was produced and extensively used by the USSR from the mid-1930s through the early years of World War II. It took part, among others, in the Spanish Civil War, Sino-Japanese conflicts, and on the Eastern Front during World War II. With this set, you can faithfully reproduce the cockpit and realistically showcase the interior finish of your I-16 model.

Recommendation and Difficulty Level

This set is especially recommended for experienced modelers looking to add greater realism to their model, as well as those preparing dioramas or competition entries. Due to the vacuformed nature of the element, a minimum intermediate level of experience is advised (difficulty level: 3/5). An essential product for any modeler striving for the most realistic finishing effect on interwar period aircraft models.
