Wartime History
Abandoned at Clark Field and captured intact by the US Army. Repaired and evaluated by TAIU and assigned tail code S10, it was repainted in American markings and flight tested. This aircraft later crashed at Clark Field.

This aircraft was probably flown twice by ATIU before crashing on a test flight. Afterwards, it was possibly used for spare parts.

Dave Pluth adds:
"This was not a pretty aircraft. I think it was something of a Frankenstein aircraft from the couple of photos that I’ve seen.
