Curtiss HS-1L and HS-2L (USA)
Three-seat 298 kW (400 hp) Liberty-powered antisubmarine and patrol flying-boats of basically similar design, the HS-2L version having increased wing span and carrying heavier bombs. They became the subject of very large orders for the US Navy and were the only aircraft of indigenous design to serve with the Navy in Europe during World War I.
