| rdfs:comment | - The Arado Ar 196 is a seaplane used by the German military during World War II for ship-borne reconnaissance missions. It is seen in Medal of Honor: Frontline in the mission 'Eye of the Storm', parked in the water by the large crane and U-Boat port. The seaplane is unusable.
- The Ar 196 was a shipboard reconnaissance low-wing monoplane aircraft built by the German firm Arado starting in 1936. The next year it was selected as winner of a design contest and became the standard aircraft of the Kriegsmarine (German Navy) throughout World War II.
- The Ar-196 had a single BMW 132K engine that was capable of propelling it at speeds of up to 310 kilometers per hour. The first production model of the series was the A-1, a ship-launched variant, only had 7.62mm machine guns mounted in its wings. However, this model was in reality more limited production with only twenty being produced. While the floats made for worse maneuverability and a slower maximum speed, the Ar 196 was still a highly adaptable platform and very successful in practice. The more produced A-2's armament consisted of two MG FF autocannons mounted in a forward firing position in the wings with a 7.92mm machine gun mounted in the rear gunner position and another 7.92mm machine gun in a forward firing position. Optional armament consisted of up two 50 kilogram bombs.

Optional armament consisted of up two 50 kilogram bombs. The Ar 196 had a total length of eleven meters with a total weight of 2,335 kilograms unloaded. Wingspan was twelve meters. Operational range was around 665 kilometers with a service ceiling of 7,000 meters. The Arado was admired for its performance in the field, being a reliable aircraft when patrolling the seas and being a well armed one that was even capable of eliminating enemy fighters that crossed its path.
