Easy one there!
#7 is a Beriev Bartini VVA 14 Reg: CCCP-19172

This thing has obviously escaped from Star Wars... :)

Correct!

With Tweek about to name #15, that only leaves 1, 16 and 18.

Hints: (scroll down)





















#1 flew in the Luftwaffe
#16 is made of wood
#18 was flown by James Bond

#1 isn't experimental, it saw active service and its durability made it very popular with the 3 man crew

#15 is indeed a PZL M15 Belphegor, the world's only jet-powered cropdusting biplane!

#16 is a Woody Pusher  :)

#18 I'm surprised nobody has identified this one yet!  Here's another one with a slightly different tail:
