The Naval Aircraft Factory PT were two types of seaplanes built from surplus and spare parts by the Naval Aircraft Factory part of the United States Navy.
With a shortage of funds at the end of the First World War the Naval Aircraft Factory built 33 aircraft of two types using surplus assemblies. Both were twin float biplanes based on the fuselage and tail unit of the Curtiss R-6L; the PT-1 was fitted with the 62ft (18.90m) wings from the Curtiss HS-1L, and the PT-2 fitted with the 74ft (22.57m) wings from the Curtiss HS-2L.
