Eduard 644270 I-16 Type 24 LooK – Upgrade Set for 1/48 Scale Plastic Model

Eduard 644270 I-16 Type 24 LooK is a specialist accessory set designed for the I-16 Type 24 fighter aircraft model in the popular 1/48 scale. This exceptional product by the renowned Eduard brand is intended for modelers who wish to elevate the realism and detail of their World War II aircraft replicas.

The I-16 Type 24 model was a Soviet fighter from the interwar period and the early years of World War II, widely used by the Soviet Union from 1939. This aircraft played an important role during the Spanish Civil War, the Winter War (Soviet-Finnish War), and in the initial phase of the Great Patriotic War, serving as the backbone of the Soviet fighter air force until newer machines were introduced. The I-16 was distinguished by its unconventional silhouette and was one of the first monoplane fighters with retractable landing gear. Produced in many variants, the Type 24 was among the most popular versions, used up until the 1940s.
