Version of a Japanese air tech tree for War Thunder, featuring just about every aircraft I could find. This includes many prototype, mockup, concept, and proposal aircraft.
I have done my best to ensure each aircraft has at least some basis in reality (no completely made up designs). If you have any information on aircraft I have missed, or aircraft I have included that are verifyably fake, please do let me know.
This is by no means what I would want the JP air tree in War Thunder to look like. It is first and foremost a for-fun project, as well as something to take inspiration from, shedding some light on lesser-known aircraft and variants thereof that could be added to fill the many gaps currently in the in-game tech tree.
Also note that all (unique) vehicles that are premiums in WT are standard tree vehicles here. Vehicles that I have not found any place for are in what would normally be the premium area, denoted as squadron vehicles.
As of December 2025 I've decided to also add Thai/Indonesian/Malaysian aircraft to the tree, in line with the subtrees seen in WT.
Some symbols used in other modes have been used to further specify aircraft types:
- Attack Helicopter (yellow diamond) -> Interceptor / Heavy Fighter / Night Fighter
- Utility Helicopter (green pentagon) -> Reconnaisance / Observation
- Motor Gun Boat (blue flag) -> Floatplane
- Frigate (orange boat) -> Flying Boat
- Battleship (red boat) -> Superheavy Flying Boat
- Gun Barge (beige square) -> ASW Aircraft
- SPAA (purple shape) -> Escort Fighter/Bomber
Battle ratings are a bit all over the place also. I've tried my best to keep things somewhat reasonable, but I am by no means a balance expert.
BR's for rank 6 and above are especially messed up, as some planes were artificially moved up due to performance while others simply received the standard +1 BR applied to most of the tree
