Introduction
「カタリナ」の愛称で親しまれた傑作飛行艇です。信頼性の高い水陸両用機で、哨戒から救難まで幅広く運用されました。
戦後も活躍した傑作機のひとつです。
Nicknamed “Catalina”, this was a wonderfully designed flying boat. It was widely used for patrol and rescue operations.
Even after the end of the war, this masterpiece of a machine saw continued usage.
Mechanics
Large Flying Boats notably:
- Can trigger Contact and Detection.
- Allow AV to perform ASW attacks.
- Increase the minimum 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.
When used alongside other planes in an LBAS, the PBY-5A Catalina can rescue some of them, saving some bauxite when resupplying (does not prevent loss of Plane Proficiency).
