IMHO that's the Polikarpov I-16 UTI ( UTI-2 or UTI-4). The UT-1 was a different plane and was designed by Jakovlev.
 
I did not know the luftwaffe used this i type as a trainer Beute

IMHO that's not the UTI-2 but UTI-4 with M-25V engine. The UTI-2 had a different engine cowling with the open front and with no exhaust pipes seen while the one is of the closed one type with the engine cooling slots. Also the visible exhaust pipes, especially the coupled ones under the wing root, T-shaped oil cooler inlet at the bottom of the front engine cowl and the small headrest of the front cockpit indicate that sub-type of the trainer.

BTW .. a nice pic.
 
fixed gear i think?
