ICM 48096 - 1/48 I-153 Winter Fighter Model

ICM 48096 models the I-153, a nimble Soviet biplane flown around the start of World War II. The winter camouflage option reflects how the type was adapted for operations in snowy environments and adds a distinct look for collectors.

Service History and Detail

The Chaika style I-153 served in multiple roles through the late 1930s and into wartime operations. This kit recreates the winter paint layout and aims to present accurate surface features for enthusiasts who value historical fidelity.

Recommended Builder Approach

The kit is best tackled with moderate modelling experience; expect fine parts and careful painting to achieve a clean finish. Proper assembly and attention to small fittings will produce a striking model for shelf or club display.

The kit reflects commonly documented winter schemes for the I-153, providing a faithful base that can be enhanced with weathering and decals.
