The Ford Trimotor is an American aircraft produced by Ford from 1925 until 1933. Although it was created for civil aviation, it also saw service in military roles.

The design was similar to the Fokker F.VII trimotor with the difference of being all metal. The Ford Trimotor was not the first all-metal aircraft but had more advanced construction techniques than the standard of the era. The corrugated aluminium alloy body was based on designs by Junkers. The original aircraft was developed by Ford and the Stout Metal Airplane company. After Ford acquired Stout they created and tested the Stout 3-AT. After this failed prototype, Ford created the '4-AT and 5-AT models.

The Ford Trimotor 5-AT had three Pratt & Whitney engines. Its control surfaces were actuated using metal cables that run along the external surface. The aircraft was reliable and had a reputation for ruggedness. The strong metal structure and simplicity in its systems meant that it was easy to service in the field. Ford's reputation and the Ford Trimotor were very important to the development of aviation and airlines as an industry in its infancy.
