The Aichi E13A is a Japanese, single-engine, long-range, two-float reconnaissance seaplane with a crew of 3, from the Second World War. The first test flight of the prototype took place in 1940, and a year later the machine entered line service. The E13A underwent its baptism of fire in China, where it operated with cruisers and other heavy ships as a light bomber. He took part in the attack on Pearl Harbor and during the battles in the Coral Sea and the Midway. There were several versions of the main version of the E13A, but all of them had the same Mitsubishi Kinsei 43 engine with 1080 HP.
