Player Opinion
Pros and Cons
Pros:
- maneuverable
Cons:
- lightly armored
Performance
This is the first Russian fighter accessible via research. Compared to its partner the I-16, it is quite similar. Maneuverable, lightly armored, average guns, but now it is faster and has higher altitude performance. Play it the same way you'd play the I-16, no head ons unless enemy is damaged, get them to come down low to the ground, outmaneuver them and keep taking shots. Watch your health as you are fragile. You will be stuck with this plane for a while.
