Stroukoff Aircraft
Stroukoff Aircraft was an American manufacturer of experimental military transport aircraft, established in 1954 by Michael Stroukoff. Successor to Chase Aircraft, the company specalised in developing advanced variants of the C-123 Provider; however, none of the company's designs attracted a production order, and the company folded in 1959.
==Founding==
During the late 1940s, Russian emigré Michael Stroukoff designed the XG-20 for Chase Aircraft, the largest glider ever built in the United States.〔 Modified into the C-123 Provider,〔Andrade 1979, p. 87.〕 the aircraft had won a contract for production from the United States Air Force, 49% of Chase being acquired by Kaiser-Frazier to produce the aircraft at the latter company's Willow Run facility.〔 However, a scandal involving Kaiser resulted in the C-123 contract being cancelled;〔''Life'' July 6, 1953, p.22〕 with Kaiser having bought out the remainder of Chase and dissolving the company,〔〔"(Kaiser To Close Chase Plant In New Jersey )". ''American Aviation'', Volume 17 (1953), p.15.〕 Stroukoff acquired the company's facilities at the Trenton airport, and established his own company to continue development of the C-123 design.〔
