This is only 1 variant of the Ho-Ri. There were 3 In total.
Same rules as the Maus or any vehicles of the sort->1 rp into it=safe from being hidden. Though honestly Gaijin should just be hiding V2 and V3 not V1.

It’s because the R2Y2 V1 has historical proof of being possible to build since very little between the propeller R2Y1 and R2Y2 V1 were different, and the engines were already being produced. Peoples counterargument is that it wasn’t mounted, however that’s only cause we do not have documentation of it ever been mounted nor pictures which wasn’t too surprising considering by this time it was far harder to document everything with the only documentation we know of was a napkin of the jet engines being planned or possibly mounted.
By “The Ho-Ri” I presume they are referring to the version that ended up reaching the prototype stage. The other two are acknowledgeable but due to never progressing past the drawing board/scale model phase they are irrelevant for the game’s purposes.

@Stona_WT I assume that if I have the aircraft fully researched, but not bought it will still remain available for me
That is correct, any amount of research into the vehicles will keep it in your inventory, similar to when Maus returns annually.

yes, even if it is not fully research, you need at least 1 rp point, and you can finish it anytime.

Nice work
I am still waiting for replacement aircrafts for these… How long will it take for them to give us 3 new aircraft with four 30mm cannons? AFAIK the only feasable candidates would be Ki-201 partly built and J7W2 which the J7W1 was tested wuld have used the same engine as Ki-201 that never arrived which means they never got to design the J7W2 despite it was planned as next step from the very beginning!
In his own words, Kiyohara wrote, “At the ‘Shinden’ Prototype plan requirements in 5th of June 1944. Air Technical Arsenal’s engine department instructed, ‘Proceed with the design taking into consideration the use of a gas turbine engine.’”
Can we please get these two to fill the R2Y2 shaped hole in our hearts? Rank V is a barren wasteland… :<
