Is it i-153 or i-16?

Probably something Russian-like and I-15 or smt (possibly also running tracer belts, which can make a plane look like it’s firing a lot faster.
The “cross of the knight templar” is probably just a player title the person had.
Welcome to the game!! hope you have as much fun with it as i have. And pro tip, don’t worry about grinding to the top tier jets as fast as you can, you’ll just burn yourself out that way.
it was indeed runnin tracer but i spectated him and man that rpm is so fast tbh, also i remembered that when i got killed it has a screen spectating who kiilled u right?? yeah i saw a taiwan flag i think behind the display of the plane. also thank you for the welcome!!!

I-16 is quite a phenomenon for sure, the machine guns are laser beams and it turns quite well
Having full tracer belts makes the rpm look much higher than it is, although the I-16 is a very good plane
As others have said, probably the I-15 with quad PV-1s or the I-16 / I-153 with the quad ShKASs
