Auto Credit Based on Maximum777's Polikarpov I-16
A perfect flying replica of the I-16, its got all the guns in all the right places, the hand crank landing gear that takes forever, and the turn rate of the gods, its top speed is spot on to the real one and all in all its a lot of fun to fly. I aimed to make this a compitent dogfighting plane and it performes very well wiith power to spare, this plane turned out amazing in the end and I coulden't be happier, Enjoy.

Most likely should remove@Maximum777
@Diloph oh I put the countermeasures on there because I was using it to dogfight some jets I have and it could kill them if I could dodge the missiles and get in close so I just put them there to be useful in game for messing around, probably should have removed them though
tell E why it has counter measures
I like it! But the landing gear hurt me
This is really good and that landing gear retraction is painfully slow. Gives you a small feel of how it was for those pilots
Wow...16 downloads to 6 upvotes in 1 hour may be my best early upvote to download ratio yet, thanks for that, means a lot for it to be with this pane as well. :]
@SodiumChloride Hold on, the plane IRL, has HAND CRANK landing gear, it was some of the first retractable landing gear ever, defiantly the first used in the war, and it indeed took 40 seconds if you were skilled, to more than 1 minute if you were not very skilled, to put the gear up or down, this is how the real plane was so I decided to make the SP one have these silly slow landing gear, just to replicate this, I believe its actually faster than the ones IRL as well.
I personally love how this plane looks IRL and in game
