Polikarpov R-5 This is available from Encore Models at £ 9.95. Nieuport 62 Try the Heller kit of the NiD 62. As far as I can see, the NiD 62 differed only slightly from the Ni 52. In having metal wing ribs and the lower wing is also slightly smaller. The main difference is the radiator under the nose--a new radiator should be used on the model. It can be carved from .60 thou plasticard, discarding the two kit radiators and carve away their mounting pips from the undercarriage legs. Polikarpov I-16 There is a newish kit by Hasigawa at £ 9.99, and the Revell/Matchbox one is still in the shops even though it has been deleted from the 1997 catalogue. You will need to do some work on both if you wish to depict the earlier versions of the plane sent to Spain.
