The Arado AR 95 was designed in 1935 as a two-seat seaplane, for coastal patrol, reconnaissance and light attack roles. The AR 95 was not ordered by the German Armed Forces, and so was offered for export in two versions, the AR 95W (Seaplane) and AR 95L (Landplane), with a fixed undercarriage. Six AR 95L versions were ordered by the Chilean Air Force, being delivered prior to the start of WWII in 1939. Turkey placed an order for AR 95Ws, but these were taken over by Germany on the outbreak of war. The requisitioned AR 95s were designated by the Luftwaffe as the AR 95A, and were used for training, and for coastal reconnaissance operations in the Baltic Sea, operating off the coast of Latvia and Estonia in 1941, and in the Gulf of Finland. They continued operating until late 1944. Very scarce brochure which is in very good condition. A02.1010.
