Polikarpov I-17 (CKB-19) Soviet single-seat fighter prototype Scale 1:72 Amodel AMO72216 Plastic Airplane Model Kit

Polikarpov I-17 (TsKB-19) aircraft model kit in 1:72 scale represents an advanced Soviet single-seat fighter prototype developed during the late interwar period.

The I-17, also known by its design bureau designation TsKB-19, was conceived as a modern monoplane fighter intended to replace earlier biplane designs in Soviet service. The aircraft featured an enclosed cockpit, retractable landing gear, and a streamlined airframe, reflecting contemporary international trends in fighter development.

First flown in the late 1930s, the I-17 was evaluated by the Soviet Air Forces as a potential next-generation fighter. Despite promising performance, the project did not proceed to series production due to technical issues and shifting priorities within Soviet aircraft development programs on the eve of World War II.

This plastic model kit is produced by AMODEL and accurately depicts the prototype Polikarpov I-17 (TsKB-19). The model belongs to the Aircraft Model Kits category and is manufactured in 1:72 scale, making it suitable for Soviet aviation and interwar prototype collections.
