The Junkers K 47 was a two-seater fighter aircraft developed in Sweden by the Swedish subsidiary of the German firm Junkers during the late 1920s, a civil development of which was designated the A 48.
23 aircraft built.
The only operational use of the type was China (Nanking government), which bought ten aircraft in 1931, and was presented one more in 1934 .
Demonstrations were also carried out in Romania, Portugal, and Latvia without any resulting orders, although one aircraft may have been purchased by Japan.
Three aircraft were used by the Reichswehr clandestine training facility at Lipetsk and a small number of the unarmed civil version were purchased by the DVS.
K 47s were also used in trials to investigate dive bombing, experiments that would be formative of Pohlmann’s thinking in designing the Ju 87.
Indeed, the second Ju 87 prototype was fitted with a K 47 tail.
