OS2U Kingfisher

OS2U Kingfisher is the premier allied recon plane. It is fragile but quick, and costs a mere 50 command points in island capture. It is as cheap as a PT boat, and it is just as effective. Superior to the PBY Catalina, the Kingfisher is an excellent sub killer, carrying sonar and two depth charges. It can also equip bombs, but these are too light to be effective. These aircraft are also the best recon planes the allies have to offer, equal to the F1M Pete in terms of armament and the E13A Jake in terms performance. These planes are extremely weak armor wise, however, but this is about the only downside.

Status
In Game Description: ''The Kingfisher is the Navy's standard floatplane, serving on all battleships and cruisers. First flown in 1938, this reliable, compact seaplane performs a wide variety of tasks such as reconnaissance, observation, anti-submarine and sea rescue missions. They are launched from ships by steam catapults. Without any armour or real firepower, it's not a combat machine.''
