Do LAN "I" fare tickets book into AA "F" for connections?

I'm sorry if this has been answered before but I can't find a definitive response:
If I buy a LAN ticket booked in "I" which connects to an AA flight, will that automatically put me in AA "F" (assuming of course that it's a two class AA flight)?
E.G. LIM-MIA-DCA (all on one LAN-issued ticket)

I believe for proper fare construction, they have to book into "A" class.

Thank you Eastbay. I think you are correct which means that if you are booked in "I" you will be sent to economy on the AA segment. If anybody knows a way around this I would appreciate it.

A is a 2 cabin F seat.

Sorry -- I misunderstood you. I understand what "A" class is. But are you saying that if I purchase "I" on LAN that will translate to "A" on AA? Because when I do a dummy booking it just says "I" for both legs (which of course on a two class AA flight is not possible).

I have booked many, many "I" fares (discounted paid business class) EZE-MIA-EWR with the EZE-MIA segments being on LAN metal and the MIA-EWR segment on AA metal and the domestic segment is ALWAYS in AA F.
