Mechanics

Reconnaissance AircraftSpLBRecon are planes that:

• Can trigger Contact.

• Does not contribute Fighter Power in Aerial Combat, and so cannot be shot down during it (can be shot down during Detection).
• When equipped to a Land Base:
  • Can extend the minimum Combat Radius in Sortie Mode.
  • Add a bonus multiplier to the total Defense Fighter-Power of the base in Air Defense Mode.
  • Can contribute Fighter Power (if it has any Proficiency or ), and can be shot down.

When used, on Ise Kai Ni, Hyuuga Kai Ni, Souryuu Kai Ni, and Hiryuu Kai Ni, it provides +1 Range bonus.

• This allows them to reach "Longest" range if paired with a "Very Long" range equipment (see Range).

Notes

Not to be confused with other aircraft of this family (see here).
