It seems that I've seen this discussed before but a search just led to a lot of confusing but not authoritative posts. Does someone have a good handle on S&I and can tell us what should be the axis & allied strategy with S&I?

For axis is it just have GE invest in S&I but not IT? I know IT can get some small benefit of spotting hidden units but IT is resource poor and investing in S&I to spot units doesn't seem worth it.

For allies should it just be UK investing and US/SU should not worry about it?

Thanks for any insight here.

S&I research is very important, that is its important your opponents S&I isn't higher than yours.

Given the rules only GB, US & GE should invest in S&I. Once GB or US hits lv 3 it is no longer necessary for Allies to invest.

The reason US should invest is in case they get a break though and many times GB doesn't have the MPP to continue S&I research.

Following is a summary of the S&I "catch ups", not sure if any has changed in the last 2 years. There are several other threads on the topic but are somewhat confusing.
