Introduction

水雷戦隊旗艦用に開発された水上夜間偵察機です。
長時間の滞空性能を持つ黒く塗装された機体に、夜間索敵能力に優れた搭乗員が乗りこみます(条件が整えば夜戦を支援する「夜間触接」が発生する可能性があります)。

This is a night reconnaissance seaplane developed for torpedo squadron flagships.
The airframe is painted black has a skilled crew with excellent night-time detection ability, and can stay in the air for long periods of time (if conditions are right, "night contact" may occur to support night battles).

Mechanics

Seaplane Seaplanes are the main aircraft type used by non-carrier ships (mainly battleships, cruisers, and auxiliaries).

Reconnaissance AircraftReconnaissance AircraftLarge Reconnaissance AircraftSpLand-based Reconnaissance AircraftLBReconnaissance SeaplaneReconNight Reconnaissance Seaplane are planes that:

Night Reconnaissance Seaplane Night Recons have the ability to trigger Night Contact.

  • The scouting phase animation will not show up like day battles; instead, the night recon plane's animation is played in the enemy fleet's radar.
  • Acts as an Reconnaissance Seaplane too in day battle (with activation rates proportionally lower with the Line of Sight stat).
  • [Bug] In a Combined Fleet situation, if a ship in the fleet equipped with a night scout is evacuated from the combined fleet using the Fleet Command Facility, the night recon can still trigger and activate as the fleet proceeds onward and enters a night battle.
