Tubojet CAG?

[JimboOmega]

I researched the necessary techs, and got the breakthrough necessary. But now the tech shows up as greyed out, rather than with a red X, and I still can't research it. It's like I'm missing a pre-requisite - it's different than the other "Secret Weapon" techs...

Anybody know how I can unlock it? Note that I'm referring to Carrier Air Groups.

Don't they require your land based turbojet fighter techs up at certain level as well? Do you have tubojet interceptors/fighter and CAS researched?

You need Modern Carriers, IIRC.

I thought they wouldn't appear without the modern carrier anyway.

NVM, I was wrong, just checked. You need semi-modern carriers and practical turbojet engine, according to the tooltip.

I have both of what the tooltip says is required. (practical tubojet, semi-modern carrier)

The weird thing is the event fired, so that the tech is "unlocked", but it acts like there is still a requirement somewhere else I'm not meeting. It's no longer red X, but it's still greyed out. I'm wondering if I need something else... or, if there's a bug.

Trust me. You need Semi-Modern Carrier to activate the tech (and the enabling event) but you need Modern Carrier to actually research the tech.

Xtfoster is right

And I'll third that. Had the same problem playing as France, deliberately limiting myself by not building ships that didn't have a class name. Researched semi-modern carriers to get the de Gaulle class (in the 1940s I think - just a little ahead of schedule, say about 50 years ) and to unlock turbojet CAGs, but didn't bother to research modern as I wouldn't be getting any. No turbojets. Once I'd researched pretty much everything else I went and got modern carriers just to get everything, and turbojets were available. Could have been worse, it's not like I needed the carriers to beat the Soviets.

As always.

Wow in a cheated game playing as Ireland, I had 6 CTF fleets, two nuclear carriers with imp.turbojet CAG's on hand with 4 CL's with IH and FC.

I faced a USA fleet carrying two VII carriers, and I lost all my ships... I had a full Base Strike Doctrine too...

How's that possible? Also it was a clear day south of Cork.

*Why did I cheat? Do invade the British Isles and Liberate Scotland and Wales off course ^_^ *
