The Dewoitine D.332 was an eight-passenger airliner designed and built by the French aircraft manufacturer Dewoitine.
The D.332 was an all-metal cantilever low-wing monoplane derived from the long distance Dewoitine D.33. The pilot and co-pilot were seated side by side in an enclosed cabin located forward of the wing's leading edge. A radio operator station was located behind the pilots, and behind that was a cabin for eight passengers. The landing gear had trouser-type fairings on the main gear legs. The D.333 was an improved version of this plane, also serving as an airliner. It was further developed into the D.338 design of the late 1930s, which did away with the prominent fixed landing gear of the D.332 and D.333.
