The Anatra DS Anasal was a followon to the 1916 Anatra D, the major change being the installation of the 150hp Salmson Canton-Unné R9 radial engine, with associated cutouts for the cylinder heads and a box-type radiator near the center of the top wing. Roughly seventy were produced in 1917, but it was later used by both Austria and the Czechs. [2]
After Russia had dropped from the war, sixty-six DS planes were purchased by Austria-Hungary as Anatra C.I Series 010 trainers. They saw a little use in late 1918 and then served with the Hungarian Red Airbourne Corps and the Czechoslovakian air service. [7]
