Adapted from ICM:

The last and most perfect in N.N. Polikarpov Design Bureau series biplane fighter family was the I-153. It had a gull-shaped upper wing, retractable chassis and more powerful armament with four ShKAS machine guns. Serial planes had M-62 radial engines and late series had the more powerful M-63. The maiden flight was in August 1938. All in all, in 1939-1941, 3437 planes were made. In the of summer 1941, the I-153 “Chaika” (the “Gull”) was the basis of the Soviet Fighter Aviation with I-16 fighters. I-153 planes were used in combat until mid-1943.
