Radoye Wrote:Nikitin-Shevchenko IS-1 folding wing fighter, USSR
This was the progenitor of series of prototypes (IS-2, IS-4, IS-18) which all had in common that they could fold their lower pair of wings and thus change from biplane configuration (for takeoff, landing, and improved climb and turn performance) into a shoulder-wing monoplane (for speed).

Added to the list, and I often admire the many aircraft requests with information you provided through my aircraft requests library threads because I kept learning so much new things from these. I truly hope that you will keep doing this, and I truly appreciate your enthusiasm for bring information on aircraft that not every of us would know of.
Chaoic out...
