In 1926 they were to replace Salmson 2A2s as Kawasaki Type 88-I recconaisance and Type 88-II as light bombers; Kawasaki was originally a shipbuilding company and they were known as KDAs ( Kawasaki Dockyard, Army). In 1929 there were 11 Recon. squadrons with 9 x 88s each, the 2 light bomber squadrons having 9 x Mitsubishi 2MB.I Type 87s each.
