Aichi E13A is a Japanese seaplane.
Description[]
The Aichi E13A was a long-range reconnaissance seaplane and armed with three 7.7mm machine guns: two at the front, and one facing rearward for the back passenger. The E13A fulfilled multiple roles through World War 2, not only as a ship-born catapult plane for reconnaissance, but also as coastal patrol and rescue plane. Special variants were even used in an anti-ship combat role with additional armament.
As with other seaplanes in BattleGroup42, it can act as a spotter and designate targets for artillery.
Currently, it appears just in 4112-Flying Tigers.
Trivia[]
The model is a modified version of Aichi D3A1 which is based on the original Battlefield 1942's Aichival.
