"Jean" was a Japanese biplane torpedo bomber in the same class as the British Swordfish. Designed by Kawasaki Sanae to meet a 1934 requirement, it used the efficient wings of the E7K1 "Alf" and the prototype first flew ino late 1935. Production began in November 1936 and the aircraft remained part of the air groups of Japanese carriers until 1940, seeing service over China.

The U.S. Navy expected that the Japanese would be flying this sort of obsolete aircraft off of their carriers when war broke out, but  "Jean" had already been relegated to training units, and was probably never encountered by the Western Allies in combat.
