Christopher AG-1

The Christopher AG-1 was a proposed Second World War American assault glider.

Part of a United States Army assault glider project, none was built and the programme was cancelled in September 1943.

[1][2] The Christopher prototype was designated the XAG-1 and was to have been a low-wing cantilever monoplane with a gross weight of 8500lb, the company delivered a wind tunnel model to the Army.

[1] General Chidlaw in the Office of the Assistant Chief of Air Staff decided that it was damned fool idea and cancelled the project in September 1943.
