— [The XP-1 was a prototype fighter developed by the Republic of China Air Force during World War II. It featured a mixed construction with a wooden fuselage and wings, and a steel tube fuselage. The aircraft was powered by a Pratt & Whitney Twin Wasp engine and was designed to carry up to four 20mm cannons underwing, making it capable of functioning as a dive bomber. However, the prototype experienced a crash during its maiden flight in 1944, leading to its cancellation]

Perhaps the most well known photo of the XP-0. This aircraft appears to have been the first prototype based closely on the H-75 design. The photo was taken at the 1st AFAMF in Kunming, Yunnan at an unknown date. (Original Source Unknown)
