The machine was distinguished by its modern-for-the-time aerodynamic solutions, including retractable landing gear and an enclosed cockpit. It was an experimental project intended as a basis for the development of faster and more maneuverable fighters for the USSR right before World War II. Although it was not put into serial production, it influenced the development of subsequent Soviet fighter designs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScale:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\/72 – ideal for collecting and displaying on a shelf.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUser country:\u003c\/strong\u003e Soviet Union (USSR).\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHistorical period:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1930s, interwar period; phase of intensive development of Soviet aviation before World War II.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIntended use:\u003c\/strong\u003e Experimental aircraft, flown for testing and experimental purposes; not used in combat.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Precision plastic (injection molded).
