hard to find data on the service dates, this has some break down....
http://www.ctrl-c.liu.se/misc/ram/i-16-t18.html  

Shows the Type 18 as the 1939 production version and the type 24 as also 1939. I'd assume that those would be the 2 most likey versions for AH....
http://www.ctrl-c.liu.se/misc/ram/i-16-t24.html  

Type 17 has the 2x20mm and is 1938 model....
http://www.ctrl-c.liu.se/misc/ram/i-16-t17.html     

A lot of variations, 20mm seem to be 150 rds each...so 300 x 20mm

If we get it the Type 28 will likely be the 20mm version we see.  See my post above.

Cool, an open-cockpit plane.  With the addition of the new EW planes, I hope they perk the quad-hispano Hurri-crutch2c!  Although it does give me pleasure to saw off a wing or tail of a 2c with my Mk1 from D200.   :D

I wonder how they're going to model the 'iron finger' model trigger which caused most I-16 pilots to miss their target due to extensive forces required to fire the thing.

Very nice addition.  Was hoping for this one for a long time.  Hopefully we get one with the 20mm cannons as an option as well so we'll have one for scenarios and the MAs.
