"It would be nice to have a few more Chuantuo-class, the number of missiles carried is too small, and the number of attack waves will be few." Looking at the ever-narrowing distance between his own missile group and the Sijing fleet displayed on the radar screen, Tagait said with some regret, as Lin Hai said, only eight Chuantuo-class frigates are not as good as a destroyer gunship of the Sijing people in terms of level, and there is actually a gap in performance, this time it is still an absolute disadvantage in terms of quantity, but after firing, one did not lose two planetary assault motherships and three destroyer gunships, and it was a big profit in exchange.
Not to mention that such a result was due to the fact that Dr. Kane's newly developed new missile was the first to take the lead, and the number of missiles carried by this missile even exceeded the number of old capital ships Kodiak-class cruisers, allowing only eight frigates to play a battle result that exceeded GDI's orbital defense fleet. If the number of such frigates doubles, maybe the ones who need to run away now should be the Sijing people.
"Missile ships, the explosive force is strong, but the follow-up is weak." Lin Hai interjected, "Although I am not so professional, I still know that this kind of ship can only play a wave when it is used alone for combat, and it has to run away when the missiles are exhausted, and only after being incorporated into other types of ships can the combat capability of the whole fleet be improved as a whole." At least some supply ships for them, right? ”
"That's for sure." Hearing Lin Hai's words, Tagate, who was waiting for the missile group to make contact with the Sijing fleet, also said, "Our technical level is not enough, and we can't build a single ship that can deal with all enemies for the time being, and the cooperation of many different ships is the current trend, but the Sijing people, at present, they can only take out the two models of the Destroyer gunship and the planetary assault mothership - their super motherships are not included - although I don't know if they only have these two types of warships, or for some reason they can only use those two types, However, their advantages in starship design technology, as well as other supporting technologies, still ensure that even if they only have these two battleships, Tang can still cope with most battlefield environments, and their advantages are even more obvious in this regard. ”
"We have our strengths too. At least we have more researchers who can quickly improve and upgrade weaknesses when they find them, or even simply design new equipment to deal with the enemy. The Sijing people, who are seriously lacking in scientific researchers, are not good in this regard, but they also need human researchers to help them with technology research and development, but according to our intelligence and research results, due to the huge difference between humans and Sijing people in terms of thinking methods, the development of the technology trees of the two sides is also very different, resulting in the researchers of the Holy Brotherhood have not been able to research any useful technology for the Sijing people over the years. ”
"This is good news, the speed of technology upgrades is not as fast as ours, giving us a chance to catch up with them."
Due to the opposite flight, the relative speed is faster, and the missile group begins to contact the Sijing fleet.
The dense beam of rays first shot from the direction of the Sijing fleet, and the five starships on the left flank were all destroyed within a few minutes, reminding the other Sijing people that the interception firepower at this time is no longer as dense as before - reducing the launch power to increase the rate of fire - but it is full of power, basically it can achieve a single hit, it can destroy a new missile, and the high-energy ray weapons of the Sijing people are too far behind the human heat-resistant material technology.
Fortunately, Kane did not fail to take this situation into account when designing these new missiles, after all, no matter how capable he is, the huge gap in scientific and technological level between the two sides still exists, and it is not something that he can easily catch up with alone.
After the first missile was intercepted and destroyed, these missiles immediately began to fly in high maneuverability and change orbits, each missile changed its trajectory under the frantic jet engine of the missile body, and from time to time it had to make some maneuvers similar to traverse, in order to avoid the fire control system lock on the Sijing starship, increasing the difficulty of intercepting them.
The power of weapons can be increased by a series of methods such as output power overload and energy storage, but the locking efficiency of the fire control system cannot be improved out of thin air. After such an operation, the success rate of the missile being intercepted suddenly dropped sharply, and even the high-energy rays at the speed of light were missed during the interception!
The other plasma weapons on the Sjing Starship also fired.
Although all the weapons of the Sijing people are based on plasma radiation technology, whether it is a high-energy ray after a high degree of constraint or a plasma cluster that is directly emitted, they are all plasma weapons, but compared with the high-energy rays that require a higher technical level and consume more, but have a wider effect, it is more rude to directly launch the plasma cluster.
The advantages of high-energy rays are high bullet speed, high directivity, and high penetration with more concentrated energy, but the disadvantage is that it requires more energy when launching, and the energy storage time is longer. The plasma group, although the bullet speed is slow, not even as good as GDI's most basic railgun and missile, but it is easier to control, the explosive power is also extremely high, and the lethality is not worse than the high-energy ray, but just because the bullet speed is the slowest, up to now, the plasma projection weapon has basically become a short-range shooting weapon in space, an artillery weapon in ground warfare and the like, compared to plasma projection weapons, Sijing people are more using high-energy rays as the main means of attack.
Don't look at the plasma projector used by the Sijing people's ground anti-orbital defense weapons, but that's because the plasma cluster launched by the platform can be controlled by the restrained field from a distance, turning into something similar to a human guided weapon, which increases the hit rate in disguise - of course, Lin Hai also knows that this does not mean that the Sijing people do not have high-energy ray mode anti-orbital weapons - can more effectively hit ships above the orbit, and when the high-energy rays with higher bullet speed are affected by the control distance of the strong confined field, when the high-energy rays with higher bullet speed are used on the earth, Due to planetary magnetic and gravitational fields, the range and directivity are not as good as those in space, and they are inferior to plasma projection weapons when used on the ground.
At this time, the Sijing people suddenly used plasma projection weapons, and they didn't expect that the air defense effect of these energy clusters would be better than that of high-energy rays, but they just used the characteristics of the plasma clusters emitted by plasma projection weapons to exist for a longer time, trying to form a barrage in front of the fleet, so as to enhance the interception firepower.
At the same time, the four surviving planetary assault carriers are also releasing carrier-based aircraft, which are not used to attack the Linhai fleet, but like those plasma projection weapons, they must be deployed in front of the Sijing fleet, forming a defensive front, and after cooperating with the fleet's anti-aircraft fire to intercept those missiles, those carrier-based aircraft will attack the human fleet that has shortened the distance.
But everything was expected by Tagate.
The short-range missiles launched by the first wave automatically exploded when they approached the distance of less than 100 kilometers from the Sijingren carrier-based aircraft! Although it is said to be short-range missiles, these missiles are not small guys, put in the earth environment, compared to the huge size of ballistic missiles, at least there are large long-range air defense and anti-missile missile size, such a large volume, in addition to the engine, fuel, guidance control unit and other parts that account for half of the missile body, the rest basically belong to the warhead, this explosion, densely packed thousands of bullets like a cover to spread forward!
It's not the first time Tagate has seen the Sijing Intruder carrier-based aircraft, not to mention that in the face of such an attack by hundreds or thousands of space fighters at every turn, he is not uncommon in the war against the rebel intelligent robots, and the Global Defense Force has also come up with a lot of targeted designs for this. In addition to conventional electronic jamming and a large number of point fire interceptions, the scheme of using this cluster submone warhead in large quantities is also the most commonly used means for human armies.
A planetary assault carrier can carry up to eight hundred intruder fighters, in addition to the huge planetary assault carrier itself, the design of the carrying area is also very dense, the intruder fighter itself is petite, which is also a big reason, but in this way, the intruder carrier-based aircraft's own defense is also very low, compared to Sijingren's other wind rider fighter comparable to the size of a human medium bomber, the intruder's armor is as fragile as an eggshell, and when facing the impact of extremely high-speed kinetic objects and explosives in space, it is the same as an egg. It can be destroyed easily, even if only one or two bullets hit, the outcome is the same.
Of course, after all, the cosmic range is too large, even hundreds of thousands of bullets cannot completely cover the entire contact surface, although the number of intruder carrier-based aircraft of the Sijing people has reached 3,200, the formation is also very sparse in this range of the universe, and after facing the sweep of cluster sub-mother missiles, there are still more than 2,000 surviving - although nearly 1,000 carrier-based aircraft were destroyed in an instant, it is also very amazing.
"Cut, have Sijing people also learned to be smart?" Tagate was not very satisfied with this result, he originally expected to destroy at least half of the Sijing carrier-based aircraft this time, but now only less than one-third of the number was destroyed, and the remaining more than 2,000 still have the ability to destroy the entire fleet - the Chuantuo-class missile frigate is just like the surface ships of this era, there is no heavy armor, and it is impossible to have the newly developed deflection shield equipment, in the face of enemy strikes, the only thing that can be done is in addition to the ablative armor specially aimed at the high-energy weapons of the Sijing people. It is its specially designed honeycomb structure, whether it is a missile or a kinetic cannonball, or even a plasma weapon of the Sijing people, it has a certain resistance and will not be destroyed by a blow (of course, if the attack firepower is too strong, the Chuantuo class with low defense will still be killed by one shot).
When the cluster bullet warhead exploded, the unmanned carrier-based aircraft of the Sijing people automatically dispersed, and each intruder was extremely far away from other friendly aircraft, resulting in those scattered bullets could not cover many carrier-based aircraft at one time, and nearly a thousand could be destroyed, which was still because the distance between the two sides was not too far, so that the Sijing carrier-based aircraft did not have enough time to dodge.
"There are two more launches in the Chuantuo-class vertical hair system." Lin Hai reminded, "The reason why only ten people are needed to operate is that most of the space in the Chuantuo-class ship is used to install missiles with vertical hair systems. ”
"Next time I talk to Dr. Kane, tell him to reduce some of his ammo." Tagate replied, "Although the large amount of ammunition can last for a longer time, but once the enemy hits the ammunition depot, it will die quickly, and this kind of support auxiliary frigate has other ships to cooperate with the operation, there is no need to install so many short-range missiles, it is better to leave space for heavy torpedoes, and it is better for us to add some anti-ship capabilities." ”
"I'll report the situation to Dr. Kane." Lin Hai shrugged, but his expression became serious, "The premise is that we can go back alive!" I don't want to try how effective the imitation of the Sijing Man stealth escape pod is! ”
On the main screen, although the exploding short-range missile group failed to seriously hit the Sijing carrier-based aircraft group, it successfully disrupted their formation, and the distance between the follow-up missile group and the leading group was kept short, and before the remaining carrier-based aircraft returned to the interception position, the follow-up strike missile group passed through the position where those carrier-based aircraft got out of the way at high speed, and rushed straight to the fleet behind them!
