Introduction
十三試陸戦として開発された双発陸上戦闘機。双発遠距離戦闘機開発としては成功しなかった本機を、偵察機として正式採用したのが、この「二式陸偵」です。
ラバウルに展開した本機が後に現地改修され、20mm斜銃2挺を装備、ラバウルや本土防空戦で大型爆撃機相手に奮戦した、あの夜間戦闘機「月光」が誕生しました。
A twin-engine land-based fighter developed during thirteen trial fights. Developed as a twin-engine long-distance fighter plane that didn't succeed, was formally accepted as a reconnaissance plane, this is the 'Type 2 Land Based Reconnaissance Aircraft'. Deployed in Rabaul the original plane was locally improved, equipped with 2x diagonally firing 20 mm guns, it fiercely fought a large-sized enemy bomber in Rabaul and in the mainland air defense, on those battles the night fighter 'Gekko' was born.
