The Polikarpov I-153 Chaika (Russian Чайка, "Seagull") was a late 1930s Sovietbiplane fighter. Developed as an advanced version of the I-15 with a retractable undercarriage, the I-153 fought in the Soviet-Japanese combats in Mongolia and was one of the Soviets' major fighter types in the early years of the Second World War. Three I-153s are still flying.
