Also exported, the Duck found widespr

ead use in South America, where its strength and easy flight characteristics were much appreciated. This military workhorse did a tremendous job but never got the publicity of its more glamorous cousins. It could carry bombs, act as a transport, be used for photo-reconnaissance and rescues, usually when the normal aircraft for these roles were unavailable for both the USN and the USCG. This tremendous utility aircraft was flown by many countries well after the war ended.
