It will probably be some months at least before Vic includes any big features, what if until then it�s introduced through Stratagems played in certain enemy regions like spies and lower enemy units� combat readiness, lower xp and such? Even plane graphics are there so it must be a breeze to include and it would temporarily fix one of the biggest missing things in SE.

Stratagem could be unlocked at TL 2 or 3 and how often you get it depends on what your military budget is.

Hmm. Games often used a simpler base mechanic to implement new stuff, before they fully fleshed out the mechanic.

A Stratagem based airforce would propably a okay-ish starting point, until it becomes a proper Sytem.

For your situational awareness, the basis for ships and airplanes is already baked inside the master and scenario files. I know that for certain. It's definitely based on WW2.

I guess the tough part is integrating such things into the game's new design/code and to not break the balance. As was mentioned by others, every new feature requires the AI to understand use the feature too.
