As far as I remember, before the introduction of Japanese HFs, you can go from the Japanese Army fighter line to the Navy Multirole line, either from the T7 or T8 of the IJA line.

But I checked now and it seems that the two lines have completely broken up now.

Did I remember that correctly? It was once connected? And if it really was changed, would it stay that way and perhaps each of the lines have their own additions?

 

Asked this because I got my Ki-93 and was hoping that I could go to J7W1 Shinden from there, but it looks like it won't be possible...

Yeah, it seems to have been ninja removed...IIRC you could sidegrade to J7W1 in T8.

 

Ninja changes are nothing new though.

Last time I looked (April or so, before the specialist thing), it was like this:

Yeah I did remember the line being present for a long time, but I also kinda remember that it used to "have the line but can't go from Army to Navy"... which is why I was confused...

When the event ends, the Japanese heavy fighters mini-line will branch off from the Ki-43-I and A6M1 Zero (Tiers IV fighters). Transition to the J7W1 and the Ki-94-II will be available from the Ki-93, and the transition from the Ki-94-II to the J7W1 is unavailable with the update 2.0.8 release.

 

When this heavy fighters will be available for research, you will be available to research the J7W1 from your Ki-93.

Thank you, this is very good to know.

Uhh wait...

If the Japanese HF line is going to connect to and from both IJA and IJN line, does this mean you don't plan to introduce an IJN HF line? Or do you plan to combine them with the current IJA HF line?

At the moment it means only that we do not have these aircraft in the game When/if some new aircraft is introduced we will make adjustments in the tech tree. Like these changes for the heavy fighters line.
