The Douglas XCG-17 was an American assault glider, developed by the conversion of a C-47 Skytrain twin-engine transport during World War II. Although the XCG-17 was successfully tested, the requirement for such a large glider had passed, and no further examples of the type were built; one additional C-47, however, was converted in the field to glider configuration briefly during 1946 for evaluation, but was quickly reconverted to powered configuration.

Aunque el XCG-17 tuvo éxito en las pruebas, el requerimiento de un planeador tan grande ya había pasado, y no fueron construidos más ejemplares; sin embargo, un C-47 adicional fue sometido a una conversión de campo a la configuración de planeador para evaluación, de forma breve durante 1946, pero fue rápidamente reconvertido a la configuración motorizada.

Meskipun XCG-17 berhasil dalam pengujian, persyaratan untuk seperti glider besar telah berlalu, dan tidak ada contoh lebih lanjut dari jenis ini yang dibangun, satu tambahan C-47, telah dikonversi di lapangan untuk konfigurasi glider sebentar selama tahun 1946 untuk evaluasi, tetapi dengan cepat dikonversi untuk konfigurasi bertenaga.
