Used in WW1, the S-16 biplane fighter was first ordered by the Imperial Russian Air Force in 1915, and served until 1923. The last versions of the S-16 were used by the Soviet Air Force (shown). Used in all-terrain ice/snow takeoffs & landings, though highly maneuverable, the S-16 possessed a comparatively poor performance due to insufficient power.
