As Canada, I want to research Air Cavalry in the Secret Weapons tree, and when i put the cursor over its name, appears:

(*) Tech Armored Cavalry is known
(*) Tech Advanced Transport Plane is known
(-) Tech Practical Turbojet Engine is not known
(*) Tech Air Cavalry Division is not active

What i have to do to resarch this tech? In the Aircraft Tech Tree, I can't research Practical Turbojet Engine, it appears in red... Why???

And what they mean with "Tech Air Cavalry Division is not active? How activate it?

You will be allowed to research the Air Cavalry Division Tech after an event fires. (It's a popup, like with electronic computer techs). Not sure why you can't research the turbojet as I forget what the prerequesites are, Rocket Engine perhaps?
 
Actually, is there anything special about air cavalry? they seem to be nothing more than a fast semi-hard unit, despite the chopper icon:confused:

I never find it worthy to research, except playing as USA - and then only for flavor.
 
It's very, very fast. Like, 20 km/h.

Air cavalry basicly replaces every Inf, Mot and Mech late game.
They are the top!

And you get to sing: All along the Watchtower!

Replace? They get shattered vses Mech or ARM. Their stats aren't the best, but its their speed that is their advantage. Easily outflank enemies and when properly supported then they are unstoppable :D
 
Additionally, they have 10 additional ORG and Morale. I'm not sure, but I think they are classed as 'commando' unit. Stick a commando leader under them to find out!

I modify them, adding 2 additional speed (to make them super fast) - Add armoured cars for even more Org gain!

Thats why they got replaced in my games.
Why send a slug with 5 bazooka when you can send a chopper?
 
its a little disappointing that they dont really fly but yes they probably are the top ground div type in the game. they are even as good at defense and suppression as garrisons
oh..and i am also having trouble getting air cav tech and i have all the prerequisites mentioned in the first post (including turbojet). i am playing the cold war extension where its not in secret weapons yet i still hoped it would appear as a "theoretical breakthrough" pop-up but its been a few months and i am starting to worry
