The Aeronca L-3 Grasshopper was a light observation and liaison aircraft used by the United States Army Air Corps during World War II. It was derived from the pre-war Aeronca 50 Chief and Aeronca 65 Chief models, which were tandem-seat monoplanes with high wings. The L-3 Grasshopper had a 65 hp Continental engine and a widened and extended canopy that improved visibility for the pilot and observer. The L-3 Grasshopper was used for spotting enemy activities, directing artillery fire, transporting personnel and supplies, and performing short-range reconnaissance missions. It could land and take off from unprepared fields and operate in various climates and terrains. The L-3 Grasshopper was also used by the Free French Forces in North Africa and Europe, as well as by the US Navy as the LNR-1. Some L-3 Grasshoppers were converted into gliders for training purposes, designated as TG-5. The Aeronca L-3 Grasshopper was a versatile and reliable aircraft that served an important role in World War II.
