Historical description of the Polikarpov I-153 fighter

The original Polikarpov I-153 was an evolution of the earlier I-15 model. This aircraft was designed and manufactured in the Soviet Union, making its official debut in 1938. The I-153 played a significant role during air combats in the Far East, including the conflict at Khalkhin Gol against Japanese aviation, as well as during the Winter War with Finland and in the early stages of WWII. Although it was replaced later by monoplane fighters, the I-153 gained recognition as a durable and highly maneuverable combat machine, remaining in service until the mid-1940s.
