The Vought OS2U Kingfisher is an iconic American observation aircraft that served with distinction during World War II. Launched from battleships and cruisers, the Kingfisher was a key player in reconnaissance, search and rescue, and artillery spotting missions from 1938 to the late 1940s. With its distinctive high-wing monoplane design, this aircraft could operate from both water with its float configuration and land with conventional landing gear, showcasing unparalleled versatility. The Kingfisher was powered by a Pratt & Whitney R-985 engine, reaching speeds up to 164 mph and a range of 805 miles. Over 1,500 units were built, serving the U.S. Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard, as well as foreign allies. The OS2U's legacy is marked by its crucial role in saving downed pilots and directing naval gunfire, earning it a revered place in military aviation history.
