Antonov ShS (Fi 156)

Classic Combat Aircraft | home

Soviet version of the German Fieseler Fi 156 Storch liaison aircraft. The Argus engine was replaced by a French Renault, copied as the MV-6, and the fuel load was increased, but otherwise it was an exact copy. Nevertheless the STOL capacities were degraded considerably. The production was ended prematurely by the German attack of 1941.
