Or WW1 scout planes.

In addition to these significant shortages, the Russian forces were also lacking in aerial reconnaissance forces. Although Russia had a large air arm, this force had been employed primarily on the Austrian front. In contrast to this, the Germans were able to deploy a significant force of reconnaissance airplanes on the eastern front. Armstrong describes the German airforce on the eastern front as consisting of the following, “Forty aircraft belonging to Feldflieger Abteilungen (field flying sections) 14, 15 and 17 and Festungs-Fleiger Abteilungen (fortress flying sections) 4, 5, 6 and 7 were at the Eighth Army's disposal.” [9] These aerial forces were to play a great part in discerning the intents of the Russian armies. They had already been used to determine that the Russians were approaching Gumbinnen.


This doesn´t mean that they should have Rec. But IMO they certainly should be Air, so that they can provide a bonus for the Recon contest.
