It was ordered into development in order to provide an all-Soviet alternative to an aircraft built on foreign technology. Work progressed so slowly, however, that turbojet technology quickly overtook the project, which was cancelled without the aircraft making a single powered flight.

Two prototypes were constructed, the first beginning glide tests on July 14 1948, towed into the air by a Petlyakov Pe-8. This aircraft was destroyed in a crash at the end of its third flight on September 5. The second prototype made five gliding flights between January and June 1949.
