Looks Russian to me, but after googling Polikarkov I-15 "Chato": close, but not quite! That is a Bipe! Shocked

Is this some polish contraption?

It's a racer from the Golden Age of aviation in the US Wink

Gracias to both; sad fate on these racers "Bulldog" & "Cicada" (NOT a locust, the Cicada singing insect). Undecided
