TNO, how to make Air Cavalry divisions?

[Zap Rowsdower]

This probably sounds like a very dumb question to people familiar with the mod but I am brand new to it and just now playing for the first time, and am very confused as to how I make the Air Cavalry divisions that I hear so much about. I research the relevant special forces tech, but then only have the option of attaching air assault, helicopter support, and transport helicopter support companies to divisions. Is this all that you need to do? I just figured there were separate Air Cavalry battalions and not just support companies.

Road to 56 mod maybe.

I don't know that there are helicopters in Vanilla.

The mod is TNO. The New Order.

Not 100% sure as I haven't played the latest update, but IIRC they're their own stand alone units. If you want the 40 MPH units it has to be all mainline units. Not 100% but I think the USA starts with some you can check out. It should have the heli(?) icon to show case it.

In short, it isn't support divisions, it's mainline divisions like marines or mountaineers.

That is what I assumed as well but, all i can find is support companies but no mainline Air Cav battalions which is why Im confused, as I can only seem to attach helicopter companies to mainline infantry battalions which only have a 4km speed rather than the high speed I keep seeing as being the main advantage of these air cav units. I just cant seem to figure out how you gain access to them. I even jumped into the US to see and they only have "Airborne Divisions" which are made up of Elite Infantry battalions with helicopter support companies.

It's possible they've removed it. It was fun having some 2 width air cav snake VPs/encircle in Russia and zooming along.
