The special device is actually the Qihui capacitor cabin, in addition to storing energy, it also has a function that only needs to be used when the protective shield is opened-

"Enlightenment Effect"!

Its function is similar to the starting capacitor of the fan, which is specially used to start the motor, if there is no such device, even if it is energized, the motor is not broken, and the fan blades can not rotate.

In the same way, when the battleship's matrix shield is opened, it must also rely on this Enlightenment effect!

Through the strengthening effect brought by the capacitor glow, all the energy stored in the capacitor chamber will be burst out at one time, and it will reach all terminal energy emission ports synchronously.

With a sufficient energy supply, the launch port can compress the emission materialized energy, and finally combine on the outside of the hull to reconstruct a matrix shield.

This whole process of opening is like opening a large umbrella with spring pressure that requires a certain amount of strength and strength to open it all.

If it's just a child with limited strength, no matter how hard you try, it's in vain, and if you add an energy storage device and accumulate adult-level strength, then you can stretch it all out in one breath.

In the process of recharging the shipboard main energy reactor into the Qihui capacitor chamber, a problem was exposed.

Battleships are not protected by protective shields, and can only rely on the armor layer and the structural layer to resist hard.

Even in this process, there are sacrifice-class maintenance drones dispatched by the Milk Ba-class combat repair aircraft carrier to carry out emergency battlefield repairs to the hull, which will also put the battleship without the protection of the protective shield in an extremely dangerous situation.

After all, the repair UAV can only repair the structural and armor layers, and cannot be turned into complex shipborne equipment.

Once the main and auxiliary thrusters are destroyed, it will cause the ship to lose power or mobility, and if the ship's guns on the armor are damaged, it will cause a significant reduction in attack ability.

This is very fatal for the battleship!

Is there a way to solve the two shortcomings of the capacitor chamber's energy consumption too fast and energy replenishment too slow?

The answer is yes!

As the essence of the "Fortress-class" combat logistics carrier, the role of the "Giant Elephant-class" energy supply ship is perfectly reflected here.

The Giant Elephant-class energy supply ship has no weapons, no ammunition and no spaceship inside, except for the basic crew and basic shipboard systems, only the energy reactor in the "teapot belly" remains.

A super energy reactor equivalent to a "Milk Tyrant" combat repair aircraft carrier with twice the energy output!

The first strength of the "Giant Elephant Class" with a small body and a big heart is the strength of the protective shield, which has reached the same level as the mothership's "Level 5" matrix protective shield.

This can ensure that the Giant Elephant class, which has no offensive ability, will not become a live target in the field, and can resist damage for the mothership if necessary.

The second is the "Remote Energy Supply System"!

Through the four "tea mouths" on the body, it can transmit long-range energy to warships of the same type, that is, equipped with energy receivers.

For example, if an attacking ship is set on fire, the energy consumption of the shield is very fast, and it will be broken by the enemy very quickly.

The "Giant Elephant-class" energy supply ship can play a role, carrying out long-range energy transmission on the battleship and quickly replenishing the energy in the Qihui capacitor cabin.

Even if the enemy's super-large caliber main gun has an attack intensity that exceeds the level of the protective shield, causing the protective shield to be defeated, the rapid charging of the Giant Elephant-class energy supply ship can also help the attacking warship quickly open the protective shield.

This is similar to today's wireless charging, but the transmission distance is longer, with a limit distance of 1000 kilometers.

The energy transmission is more concentrated, reaching the level of physical visibility, and it looks like a large stream of liquid energy is ejected from the "tea mouth" and shoots all the way to the body of the attacking battleship.

Connect the two together in a flow of energy!

The "Giant Elephant-class" energy supply ship has four "energy transmission ports", which can provide continuous energy transmission support to four warships in battle at the same time.

Basically, as long as the enemy's warships do not carry out crazy fire concentration roll call, their own warships do not leave the transmission range, plus the armor repair of the "Milk Tyrant" war repair aircraft carrier.

Before the Elephant-class energy reactor is completely depleted, it is impossible for your own warship to be destroyed by the "dog chain".

This is a very good "battleship team cooperation", and it is also a kind of Laipi tactic that will give the opponent a headache and be very weak to fight.

The "Firebird-class" small air-space transport ship, the "Milkmaster-class" large combat repair aircraft carrier, and the "Giant Elephant-class" medium-sized energy supply ship constitute the warship configuration in this dock.

And in dock ports with such configurations, there are a total of four on the "Bastion-class" combat logistics carriers.

In the four directions of the gyro-type hull!

That is to say, once the "Fortress-class" combat logistics carrier joins the battle, after the fire is fully fired,

It can send 4 "Milk Tyrant-class" combat repair aircraft carriers, and on the premise of not returning to the mothership to replenish, it can give the attack warships participating in the battle in front of them, providing 60,000 square meters of armor structure layer combat repair to ensure the maximum combat effectiveness of the attack warships.

The 16 "Giant Elephant-class" energy supply ships that departed can give 64 attack ships at the same time for continuous and rapid energy replenishment.

Maintain the stability of your ship's shield on the battlefield to provide the best defensive support.

The remaining 32 "Firebird-class" small transport ships can be regarded as battlefield rescue ships, each with the capacity to carry 800 soldiers.

Once an attacking battleship is destroyed by enemy fire, they can provide the most timely battlefield rescue and bring the crew and soldiers of the destroyed battleship back to the mothership in time.

In addition to these three main logistics warships, the invincible big of the "fortress-class" logistics battle mothership has the last killer feature-

"Hercules-class" large towing rescue ship!

The "Firebird-class" is to save people on the spot, while the "Hercules-class" exists for one purpose, that is, to carry out battlefield emergency rescue on all warships.

Once there is a main power system of your own warship, or the main gun system is completely destroyed and ineffective by the enemy, it loses the ability to fight.

However, the battleship itself has not been destroyed, and it can still be rescued, and if it continues to remain in the noisy battlefield, it can only be beaten in vain as a live target, increasing unnecessary combat losses.

The "Hercules-class" large towing and rescue ships will leave the mothership's maintenance ship harbor and tow these seriously damaged attack ships from the battlefield back to the mothership for repair.

This kind of rescue, which directly saves an entire warship, is also the most generous type of function of the "fortress-class" combat logistics carrier.

There are two large towing and rescue vessels, all of which are located in the belly of the mothership, and are located in two large maintenance ship harbors on the left and right.

As for why there are only two ships of the "Hercules-class", there are two main reasons.

The first is that the maintenance ship harbor needs to make room for the battleships returning from the rescue to dock at the dock, and then start emergency battlefield repairs.

The second is the size of the "Hercules-class", which is several times larger than the "Milk Bully-class" combat repair aircraft carrier, and the overall length has reached an astonishing 3,690 meters.

Of course, this is the overall length!

Its towing head is less than 800 meters, but it has four thrusters with a diameter of up to 200 meters side by side, which can provide power comparable to that of a super-large warship.

With its original design standards, it can smoothly drag the "Titan-class" super flag out of the combat area even if it is more than 10 kilometers long.

Behind the towing head, a bridge of more than 2,000 meters long poked out from the left and right sides, which looked like an oversized two-toothed harpoon.

This two-toothed harpoon, with an empty middle, is the large arm that the "Hercules-class" uses to clamp various warships and remove them from the battlefield.

And with these four-seed battleships with powerful logistics functions and can serve their own attack warships in an all-round way, they have also established the "fortress-class" combat logistics mothership, the absolute "super nurse" main force in the battlefield.

With these powerful logistical auxiliary combat capabilities, it can be fully expected that in future interstellar naval battles, the "fortress level" will definitely become a thorn in the enemy's side! Hate in your heart!

Then in the face of the enemy's frantic targeting, how should the "Fortress-class" combat logistics mothership protect itself?

This is exactly the disadvantage of the "fortress class"!

Devoted to the "nurse role", this leaves it with no room left, and then to install super-caliber main guns, and even large-caliber heavy guns are rare.

In addition to the level 5 Matrix Shield, all that remains is a large number of small and medium-caliber defensive ship guns.

With this level of firepower, it will only hit a few frigates, fast assault ships, unmanned combat spaceships, etc., these small attack warships.

In the face of medium-sized cruisers and destroyers, it is estimated that it will be difficult to penetrate even the protective shield and armor layer on the opposite side.

Of course, if it is a one-on-one, or one-to-two situation, the "Fortress class" relies on itself to belong to a super-large warship, even if it is a logistics warship with low combat effectiveness, but after all, it is placed here two levels higher.

can still rely on the thickness of his own defensive shield, and his own milk volume is super sufficient, and he can grind the other side to death.

The nurse's ability to grind the dead is still very strong!

But if you are facing a large attack ship such as a battleship, an attack carrier, or a battle cruiser, you can only be beaten passively, and you will only be destroyed if you are alone.

If it is a super-flag, super-flight, etc. of the same level, then it is not to mention, it is directly unilaterally crushed.

After all, no matter how much milk is sufficient, it can't withstand the super-large caliber main guns of the battleship, as well as the heavy bombs that are intensively dropped behind various close ranges, and the fierce bombardment superimposed.

Fortunately, in the warship establishment of the Navy, there is a kind of "frigate" that is specifically responsible for protection, and a special defensive heavy artillery cruiser.

As long as it is given sufficient protection, and the main battlefield is supported by its own large capital warships, the safety factor of the "fortress class" is still quite high in the absence of a major crisis of rout on all fronts.
