Mechanics

Liaison Aircraft are ASW Aircraft, being used to trigger some OASW and Land-based ASW attacks.
Command Liaison Aircraft

do not have any Dive Bombing stat, and so do not participate to Phases 2 & 3 of Aerial Combat and are immune to shootdown. They:

• Will launch during aerial battle if other planes are launched, but cannot start an aerial battle on their own.
• CV/L equipped with it will still require a Dive Bomber or a Torpedo Bomber to attack submarines, as it is unable to attack anything without a bomber.
• Cannot have their LBAS Combat Radius extended.

Hayabusa ASW Hayabusa
have some Dive Bombing stat that counts toward Shelling and allow them to take part in regular Aerial Combat.

• They cannot trigger any CVCI.
• Only a random amount of this stat will be counted against Installations.
• In LBAS anti-ship strikes, their is used, and they are counted as regular Land-Based Attackers.
• Proficiency gives them increased Fighter Power like fighters.

Trivia

• This particular plane is from the 20th Squadron which was a notable squadron deployed in Taiwan. This squadron utilized a unique "Eggplant Blue" color scheme while most army air groups used a mix of silver or IJA green color scheme. The squadron was trained in 1943 in Itami and originally deployed to the Kurils and then Okinawa within a year. Afterward, they were deployed in 1944 to Taiwan where 2 of their planes fought off 36 Hellcats and even managed to shoot down some US planes. They were then moved to the Philippines islands during the American offensive to recapture the territory. After the defense of the Philippines, they were moved back to Taiwan. This squadron was used for offshore patrols. This plane's markings was featured as an option for a Hasegawa 1/72 Ki-43-II Otsu model kit.
