72modeler Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 (edited) Thought some of you might find this interesting. A new-build I-16. I think there are several now flying around the world- New Zealand and here in the U.S. That is one noisy little spud! The sound reminds me of an FM2 or T-28 with a bad muffler! That is one close-coupled little monoplane!

Corsairfoxfouruncle Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 1/72 preferably but they're do small the Eduard 1/48th ones may become contenders. Definitely SCW and Soviet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the ICM kits are regarded to be the most accurate of the bunch, with the very old Revell kit having a LOT of issues. The Hasegawa kit is pretty nice, but the chord of the outer wings is too shallow, but if you get one, pm me and I can tell you an easy way to fix it.
