Polikarpov I-153

The I-153 was the successor to the I-15bis. I-153 had retractable main landing gear - unusual for a biplane. This example is another aircraft captured by the Finns. I built this I-153 from a Heller1:72 scale kit. The model was finished with paints from Gunze-Sango, Floquil and Tamiya. The decals are from Usk.
