With the successes of the I-15 biplane against the Japanese Mitsubishi A5M monoplanes during the Sino-Japanese War, the Soviet Government was encouraged to increase production of single-seat biplane fighters in relation to that of the co-existing monoplane fighter types. Polikarpov's design team began immediate development of the new I-15bis (I-152). The I-152 represented an extensive modification of the earlier I-15. The distinctive "gull" shape of the upper wing was replaced with a more traditional "straight" wing supported above the fuselage by a pair of "N" center section struts.

There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.
