==Mechanics==
<onlyinclude>{{Large Flying Boat}} '''[[LFB|Large Flying Boats]]''' share most of the properties of [[Reconnaissance Aircraft]]. They notably:
*Can perform [[ASW]] attacks on their own (similar to [[Rotorcraft]]).
*Increase the minimum [[Land-Based Air Squadron#Combat Radius|Range]] of Land Bases, from +1 to +3 range depending on the base's unmodified range.
*Can be used in the [[Air Reconnaissance]] nodes mechanic.
*When equipped in any slot size, the plane count is dropped down to 1, refunding any bauxite.
Although it is a scout which does not actually participate in Aerial Combat mechanics-wise, it is still included in the launching animation if other planes are launched.</onlyinclude>
''Despite being "flying boats", the [[Type 98 Reconnaissance Seaplane (Night Recon)]], [[Loire 130M]], [[Walrus]], and [[Sea Otter]] are not considered "Large Flying Boats" in the game.
