Hanriot HD.32

The Hanriot HD.32 was a military trainer aircraft built in France in the 1920s. Derived from the HD.14 and sharing the same basic configuration as it, the HD.32 was a substantially revised design, with redesigned tailplane, undercarriage, and wings of shorter span. The HD.14's wooden construction was replaced in part with metal structure.

The HD.32 was Hanriot's entry in a 1924 Aéronautique Militaire competition to select a new trainer, and as the winner, was ordered in quantity as the HD.32 EP.2. The type HD.320 was also built in Yugoslavia by Fabrica Aeroplana i Hydroplana Zmaj form Zemun, using an Salmson 9Ac or Siemens Sh12 110 or Walter NZ-120, engine.

In 1927, the Paraguayan Military Aviation School received three HD.32 that were intensively used as primary trainers. They received the serials E.1, E.2 and E.3 (E meaning Escuela, School). They were replaced by five Consolidated Fleet 2 in 1931 and withdrawn from use in late 1932.
