This airplane was never built. 3 airframes were planned to be fitted with the Curtiss Chieftian 2 row radial a strange 12 cylinder engine with the cylinders directly in lne with each other that predictably had severe cooling problems. The engine design was believed to be hopeless so the planes were finished as standard P-6D Hawks.
