Introduction

科学の国で開発され、実戦配備に就いた世界初の量産ロケット戦闘機。
その貴重な技術資料を伊号潜水艦で持ち帰り、不完全な図面から陸海軍共同で開発を進めた日本初のロケット戦闘機の試作型です。
通常のレシプロ機では迎撃の難しい、遥か高高度から飛来する重爆の邀撃を目指します。

This is the world's first mass-produced rocket-powered fighter developed and put into service by the Country of Science.
This is a Japanese-made prototype rocket-powered fighter developed jointly by the IJA and IJN based on valuable, but incomplete, blueprints brought back by the I-class submarine.
It was made to intercept heavy bombers at distant, high altitudes that were difficult for regular aircraft with reciprocating engines.

Mechanics

Land-Based Fighters/Interceptors    are LBAS exclusive fighters, that are used to either:

  • Provide Sortie Fighter-Power, where the "fighter Power"  , "interception"  , and "combat radius"   stats are the most important,
  • Intercept enemy bombers, where the "fighter Power"  , "interception"  , and especially the "anti-bomber"   stats are the most important.

Prototype Shuusui is considered in-game as a high altitude interceptor.

  • High Altitude Interceptors multiply the total air power of all land bases in Air Defense mode, when defending against enemy High-Altitude Bombers. The multiplier depends on the number of high altitude interceptors equipped and which difficulty the event map is played on:
