Hello. Long time no see...

ICM I-1 (IL-400b) (fighter with a 400 hp Liberty engine) The second prototype of the first Soviet monoplane fighter. Summer of 1925.
The model reduced the length and width of the fuselage. With the help of aluminum foil, imitation of corrugated skin on the wing was restored.
Colleagues, welcome. This plane really existed and flew. To improve the survey on boarding, the pilot opened the cockpit (moved forward) and lifted the force with a special mechanism.
SANCER, welcome. Thank you for the flattering reviews.

I'm not an expert on the 48th scale, that's just not a great list:
ICM, Amodel, Micromir, Modelsvit.
And also models from the Czech Republic: Eduard, Special Hobby, MPM.
And immediately another BI - a fighter-interceptor designed by A.Ya. Bereznyak and A.Isaev.This was tested with ramjet engines (direct jet engines) in the wind tunnel of TsAGI in 1944.
