Hiro H2H
The Hiro H2H (or Navy Type 89 Flying boat) was a Japanese patrol flying boat of the 1930s. Designed and built by the Hiro Naval Arsenal, it was a twin-engined biplane that was operated by the Imperial Japanese Navy.
==Development and design==
In 1929, the Imperial Japanese Navy purchased a single example of the metal hulled Supermarine Southampton II metal-hulled flying boat,〔Andrews and Morgan 1987, p.110.〕 and after evaluation, it was passed onto the Hiro Naval Arsenal (who designed the wooden Hiro H1H flying boat based on the Felixstowe F.5), to study its advanced metal hull structure. Following this study, Hiro designed a new flying boat, closely resembling the Southampton.〔Mikesh and Abe 1990, pp. 95-96.〕
The new aircraft was a twin-engined biplane, with an all-metal hull, and fabric covered metal wing and tail structures. It was powered by two Hiro Type 14 water-cooled W engines. The first prototype was completed in 1930, and following successful testing was ordered into production, with 13 aircraft being built by Hiro and a further four by Aichi. Later aircraft were powered by more powerful (600-750 hp (448-560 kW)) Hiro Type 90 engines.〔Mikesh and Abe 1990, pp.96-97.〕
