Welcome to the Kenzar Fleet Reconnaissance Floatplane Challenge!

Intro

To kick off the month, I decided to make a challenge for one of the most underrated types of aircraft. Without these aircraft, fleets of warships would be blind.

What is a Fleet Recon Floatplane?
Fleet Recon Floatplanes are seaplanes designed to be launched from ships to provide forward reconnaissance and fire directory. They were typically armed with light machine guns, turrets, and some even had bombs. They were usually designed to have a single engine and be launched from catapults aboard warships.
