The PBY was by far the most famous. Although, both US & IJN battleships and cruisers had scout planes (reconnaissance planes) stored on board their warships for artillery spotting (to adjust gunfire). These aircraft were equipped with pontoons; they were catapulted off, then after returning they were lifted back on board again by a shipboard crane.
