Biplanes & Triplanes to 1936...

[PAW]

Hello,

This may be a dumb question, but when do Airplanes come into being?

I loaded up 1914 scenario hoping to see some Aircraft.

I also checked the tech tree and do not see this.

Does this mean no Aircraft in Victoria - Revolutions?

Yes, there are airplanes. Eventually, you'll even be able to use them in combat. Not within the duration of WW1 though (unless you manage to drag it out longer than in our timeline).

To unlock the manufacturing of airplanes you need to research Electricity in the chemistry branch of the industry tech tree (becomes available around 1880) while the usage of planes in combat requires you to research Aeronautics in the Military Science branch of the Army tech tree (becomes available in 1919).

Aircraft aren't treated as separate units in Victoria, they are brigades that just give some added bonuses to the unit they are attached to.
