transport plane

Am I correct that the picture attached is a transport plane? If that is correct I would assume it can transport a unit? I was unable as the japanese to use this plane to transport a regular infantry corps. In the end I lost the plane from combat...before I could try and have it transport a regular division...which is the other part of my question. Is this a transport plane for division sized units?

Thanks

It is a regular ATR so it can transport non-motorized, non-marine Divs, or any size paratroop, or any size MTN. But the bottom left symbol means it can't be used to paradrop paratroopers.

Also: be aware that this is a flying boat, so it needs a lake or sea hexside to land it's cargo in.

Is it? If you say so, then it must be, but the image is not the one as in the cardboard for flying boats...

Blue circle around air-to-sea factor indicates flying boat.
