The Latécoère 490 was a two-seat, single-engined parasol-winged aircraft designed to a French photographic reconnaissance specification of 1928. Only two prototypes were built, the second being the Latécoère 491. The type belongs to the group of reconnaissance monoplanes that the company offered to the French air arm during the interwar years. The company's product list dates the design to 1931 and calls it a prototype reconnaissance monoplane, while a second prototype, the Latécoère 491, was slightly longer but lighter.
