The Nakajima Ki-11 was an unsuccessful attempt by the Nakajima Aircraft Company to meet a 1935 Japanese requirement for a modern single-seat monoplane fighter for both the Army and Navy air services. Development began as a private venture in 1934, based on a wire-braced low-wing monoplane inspired by the Boeing P-26 Peashooter, with a duralumin centre section and undercarriage, wood and canvas wings and tail, and a single 410 kW Nakajima Kotobuki radial engine. It competed against the Kawasaki Ki-10 biplane and, though faster and more advanced, lost when army command favoured maneuverability. Its refined design reappeared as the Ki-27, and the fourth prototype became the AN-1 courier aircraft of the Asahi Shimbun.
