- OS1E Sea Coati Observation-Scout: Naval floatplane

Notes
The Coati is a single-engined, retractable-gear, low-wing monoplane with an enclosed cockpit. The instructor sits behind the pilot trainee. Controls are designed to instruct trainees on the information necessary to fly modern frontline fighters. Two .30cal machine guns are installed in the wings for gunnery practice, and five-pound or ten-pound smoke bombs can be carried in underwing stations. It should be noted that the Coati is not armoured for combat. Civilians can also purchase the Coati, albeit without bomb racks.

A Coati test aircraft has been demonstrated to be capable of carrier landings, and the plane can be fitted with arrestor hooks; this option is being offered under the name Coati-N. Under the 1938 fiscal year budget, the FACh has ordered thirty-six Coatis, while the Armada de Chile Arma Aerea has ordered twelve Coati-N for training purposes. Argentina has also ordered the Coati-N.

French-Atlantean designed helicopter; licensed for production by Roth and Fanaero. Based on the historical Dorand GII; production GII+ has better rotor spacing than the GII prototype, with more powerful engines and a resulting increase in light weight. The derivative Fanaero HF is the first helicopter commercially-produced in South America.

[SIZE=3]Armament:[/SIZE]
- 2x.30cal MG (rear cockpit)

[SIZE=3]Notes:[/SIZE]
The PR1C was designed as a parasol-winged flying boat for the Armada de Chile. The plane has two engines in a sponson, operating in push-pull configuration, above the wings. A passenger-compartment aft of the cockpit is suitable for four to six passengers plus cargo. The PR1C was offered to the Armada de Chile Arma Aerea for consideration as a shipboard floatplane, but the AdCAA felt the ENAER Sea Coati, despite its lesser speed, was the superior aircraft. Nevertheless the AdCAA purchased two as patrol and liaison planes for the region of Tierra del Fuego and the southern coast. Argentina purchased six later in 1938, and the Japanese airline JAL ordered thirty more shortly thereafter. The Armada de Chile eventually purchased more aircraft for patrol and utility work.

The plane was originally designed by Constellacion's predecessor Valdivia Aviacion and dubbed the Valdivia Frigatebird. In 1940, the aircraft was rebadged as the Constellacion Paiño ("Storm Petrel").
