The type is mentioned as a single seater, but the canopy of the factory model looks
longer and there's an antenna on the fuselage. Maybe the model actually shows a
twin seat version ?
 
Grushin worked on two options heavy fighter, one and two-seater.
In single seater version planned availability armored box, protects the pilot from bullets up to 12.7-mm and smaller fragments.
Two-seater version had no armor, but involves placing gunner-radio operator with a machine gun ShKAS or BT. Preliminary analysis showed that a single seater is 18 kg lighter, prompting Grushin to a very controversial decision to take it to the construction of is one seater version, because the need for a second crew member on the machines of this class was later confirmed by the war.


I apologize for the error with the translation.
