  1. Seversky A8V1 Two-Seat Fighter
    The Imperial Japanese Navy Air Service purchased 20 Seversky 2PA escort fighters as the Seversky A8V1. This caused friction with the USAAC and may led to a loss of further sales. These were briefly employed in the Second Sino-Japanese War as Navy Type S Two-Seat Fighter or A8V1 (Allied codename “Dick”). destinationsjourney.com/histor #aeroplane #airplane #aviation #fighter #fighterplane #IJN #ImperialJapaneseNavy #JapaneseNavy #plane #Seversky #Seversky2PA #SeverskyA8V1
