Curtiss XP-22 Hawk - První podoba, s chladičem oleje v prstenci na přídi a původním podvozkem. Později se do zvětšeného prstence přesunul i hlavní chladič a podvozek byl nahrazen novým.

In November 1930, the Army Air Force wrote down requirements for new fighters, corresponding to a new era full of much faster bombers - a classic fighter, high-altitude fighter (this included XP-23), two-seat fighter (according to them was created Detroit XP-24) and a fighter with high maneuverability. The XP-20 was to serve as a prototype for the new Hawk variant according to the first of the requirements, but because not all tests were completed, a third built P-6A (29-262). It retained the original engine, but the radiator was moved backwards between the chassis legs, the rudder area was increased and a ring containing the oil cooler was placed on the bow. As was customary at the time, the machine was given a completely new designation, the XP-22. Later, the XP-22 also received a new self-supporting chassis, with small aerodynamic hoods, and the ring on the bow was slightly enlarged (and was now a circular place oval) and the main radiator was crammed into it. This look did not work well either, and both radiators were returned between the undercarriage legs as the engine received a new tight cover. The machine guns were also relocated, instead of above the engine cylinders, they were now in the sides of the bow, below the cylinders. And the rudder regained its original size.


In June 1931 there were comparative tests between the standard P-6, Boeingem P-12, YP-20 a XP-22. The XP-22 outperformed everyone at maximum speed, earning an order for 45 serial machines for operational tests, named the Y1P-22. However, because the conditions in Congress did not favor the ordering of new designs, even on the basis of many identical components, the designation of serial machines was changed to P-6C (making them formally just a new version of the tested design) and then to P-6E. After completing the tests, XP-22 was returned to its original form and returned to service as P-6A.
Curtiss XP-22 Hawk - Konečná podoba - v podstatě stejný jako P-6E, ponechal si ale původní vypouklé břicho P-6A.
