Fw 44 in Chinese service

[B-17engineer]

Was reading around today and found that 20 FW 44's were ordered by the Chinese and modified for combat missions. They participated in the early stage of the Second Sino-Japanese war but all were lost in combat. Curious if anyone has an actual photo of them in Chinese markings, not just a profile. Tried google and there are a lot of profile but not any pictures.

Also, what were the modifications made?

I show a total of 19 ( 12 x F's and 7 x J's) being ordered by the Canton Air Force, but taken over by the Nanking Air Force in 1936 and by Jan 1937 there were only 16 left. I only show them as having been used as trainers and cannot find where they were ever assigned to a combat squadron or armed.

Hmmmm, interesting.

What happened to those 16 aircraft then I wonder?
