Aircraft Identification Thread I

[JCS]

Whatever its designation, its a "Chinese copy" of a Storch. So give up the "right" answer and get on with your life.

Yes it is a "Chinese copy", only thing is its russian..

Antonov Shs

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.
