A ship-based seaplane that was operated by the USN since the start of the world war.
This biplane does not have outstanding performance; but, due to its ease of use and its successor being plagued with problems, it was deployed widely on medium-sized cruisers in the USN as the fleet's eyes.
※Upgrading this plane will further increase its capabilities when equipped on USN cruisers.
