I use IC with AoD. A 1936 game with Japan, but in mid 1937 the advanced naval models are locked from development and of course building, in spite of Japan having the blueprints for them. In fact, any naval model over level III can't be chosen.

Is there an event unlocking them? Is it a bug? Help will be appreciated.

An event will release your ship classes when the Naval treaty(Size restriction) is canceled. Any specific I cant provide u with but I ecperience that when I played last time.
 
You have to develop your industry. See these colored lines?
They come from boxes with "adv.parts", "refined fuel" etc. inscriptions.
Means you have to research these industrial techs first!
Tech-rushing in one field is a bad choice for AoD - You must not neglect your industrial techs!
 
Interesting. I loaded as the UK and other countries and they have the same situation. I do not know yet how the AI is programmed in respect to shipbuilding and in general, industrial development. I did neglect some material techs, so laying down shokaku, zuikaku and yamato shall be postponed at least 6-9 months as historically. Perhaps that means a very early 1942 Pearl Harbor.

I just invaded China, and the new map and single province
air attack options are welcome.

Very simple solution to your dilemna. First I can tell you just started playing IC+AoD as this question was fielded month ago and as Conanteacher suggests you need to develop Industrial Techs to allow the building of advanced units. That goes across the board for Infantry, Armor and Naval. Some Doctrines need the Industrial Techs researched as well to open the higher levels up, so you must not neglect any of the Industrial techs if you want to keep pace with AI.

Easy solution is to use the program that comes with IC called "Tecnoflechas.exe" it is in root of your installed game. Also you can open it up in your Start Menu, find IC and go to "Utilities" and select the "Tech Guide". I make a shortcut on my desktop for this. This program will help you learn the new tech tree, takes some time to learn so dont get frustrated its a learning process, but you select the tech you want, press info button and will give you the prerequistes you need to research to build what you want. Some techs take a long series in Industry to get them to open up so just plan ahead and try to keep research% up in the 115 or higher. Once you get hang of it, you will be a pro at knowing what to do the next time.

Hope this helps you.
