ICM 32001 - 1/32 I-16 Type 24 Soviet WWII Fighter Replica

This ICM 32001 kit recreates the compact I-16 Type 24, a key Soviet fighter in WWII, with attention to scale proportions and cockpit detail. The model captures the aircrafts historical presence while giving builders a precise platform for display or diorama work.

Operational Role and Scale Appeal

The I-16 Type 24 played a notable part in several Eastern Front engagements, and this kit reflects its characteristic profile and fuselage lines. Model builders will find careful representation of cockpit fittings and external surfaces that suit both straight assembly and detailed finishing.

Assembly Notes for Model Builders

Designed for hobbyists comfortable with a moderate build, the kit requires careful part fitting around wing roots and undercarriage. Glue assembly is needed, and the parts respond well to painting and weathering techniques for a realistic finish.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/32
  • Material: High-quality plastic
  • Assembly: Glue required
  • Paint: Optional for enhanced realism
The kit is aimed at intermediate builders due to fine detail and the need for precise part alignment. Novices can assemble it but should expect to use basic modelling tools and practise patience.
Yes, the kit includes decals depicting authentic Soviet markings for the I-16 Type 24, suitable for scale-accurate finishes.
Standard model acrylic or enamel paints are recommended, applied by brush or airbrush. Use plastic-compatible model glue for assembly and thin solvents for clean seams.
