Chu XP-0 Chinese Fighter Prototype
The Chu X-PO was a Chinese fighter prototype in the Second World War. Designed by the Chief of the Air Force Technical Bureau, Major General Chu Chia-Jen, in 1941, the X-PO was a single-seat fighter monoplane, the single prototype of which was produced by AFAMF in 1943. Based largely on the Curtiss Hawk 75, it was of mixed construction with wooden three-spar wings, welded steel tube fuselage and plywood skinning.
The prototype was flown for the first time in 1943, at Yangling. On landed, the XP-0 ground-looped and was written off. Feedback from the test pilot led to a redesign and a second prototype was flown in 1944. Two more examples were built in 1945 and five more in 1946. With the end of World War Two and a supply of US aircraft available, no more were built.
