The 
The KATE replica was originally build for the movie Tora, Tora, Tora. The plane was built from a Harvard airframe (AT-6) but was highly modified to make it a three place cockpit, extended the nose cowl but most significantly the tail was removed and a BT-13 tail was put on the aircraft to make it more resemble the B5M KATE. This aircraft was purchased by the CAF after the movie was made and the aircraft was used in Tora, Tora, Tora performances around the US. The plane was also used in the movie Pearl Harbor.
