Wasp’s T1 Destroyer tree splits into two T2 choices, each listed at 500 CR:

• Corvette: Choose this Destroyer to stay on the destroyer branch and progress toward Strizh. Its ship-specific tree contains nine upgrades.
• Hornet: Choose this branch if you want to move into the Cruiser class.

For a destroyer progression goal, Corvette is the direct choice. For resource runs, prioritize the mining and cargo research available on your ship; the Cruiser label alone is not a reason to expect better mining performance.

Corvette leads to Strizh, a T3 Destroyer with 14 upgrades in its ship-specific tree. Budget 5,000 CR plus minerals for its normal progression route.

Strizh is also included in the limited-time Starter Pack offer priced at 19 Robux, alongside MK 40 40mm Bofors and FK-88 88mm Flak. See the Starter Pack contents and other offers when considering that route.

At T3, Petard offers a different class—the Missile Carrier—with a listed price of 7,000 CR. At T4, the Fleet includes the Destroyer Berkut, the Missile Carrier Gyurza, and Raptor. Berkut’s Tech Tree also has a Hayastan name-and-silhouette preview on its right side.

1. At a port, open Shipyard.
2. Go to Fleet → Tech Tree to browse the connected ship branches.
3. Select your intended ship to open its ship-specific tree and locate Build.
4. Prepare the listed Credits and required materials, and work through the relevant connected research requirements.

Completed research checkmarks do not guarantee that the next ship is ready to build. Corvette and Hornet can remain locked after all seven Wasp upgrades are checked. Strizh can likewise remain locked after all nine Corvette upgrades are checked.

If Build still has a lock, return to the target ship’s requirements rather than treating the completed research tree as sufficient. A listed CR price is not a complete materials checklist, and these locked states do not establish that every upgrade on the previous ship is mandatory.

Choose research around the job you need your ship to do:

• Mining and hauling: Improve resource collection and cargo handling. Wasp’s Mining & Cargo Package covers mining speed, reach, cargo capacity, and overload penalties.
• Mobility: Use engine research such as Wasp’s Maneuvering Package for improvements to movement, including climbing, turning, and acceleration.
• Weapons: Pursue weapon research for combat bonuses and unlocks. Wasp’s Hardened Breech Blocks unlocks M20 20MM Twin, AK-101, and XM12 Rocket Pod.

Use the ship research directory for costs, effects, and prerequisites. For combinations aimed at resource trips, follow the Wasp, Corvette, Strizh, and Berkut mining builds. Check the weapon directory when choosing among weapon unlocks.
