Volume ? 11 of the Profile & Scale series covers the famous I-153 Ckaika to an entirely new standard of authenticity. More than 65 I-153 examples are faithfully documented in full-colour profile, many appearing for the first time. Many pages of original and not previously published 1:48 scale line drawings reveal the development and complexity of the I-153 family as never before. These line drawings are the culmination of nearly 30 years' dedicated work on Polikarpov's biplane fighters, and should present the most complete, accurate and illuminating scale work regarding the aircraft at the present time. The book presents many development and variant detail facts about the I-153 which have been previously unclear. The scale drawings and profiles are complimented by photographs, diagrams, appendices and other documentary material to explain the technical and construction details of all of the production versions of the I-153, to include the TK supercharger equipped models. Many of the colour profiles represent examples which will be familiar to students of the Chaika, albeit completed to the utmost standard of accuracy. Several profiles will doubtless be new even to experienced readers, and it is hoped these will delight both the casual reader and the serious student, equally.
