Chapter 713: Starry Sky Base

Of course, the Tech Ball is a campaign unit, and the Battle Cruiser is also a classic unit of the generation, so maybe Sister Logic will judge them as Interstellar 1 data.

Waiting for the system interface to return and the 4 clan emblems rekindled, he immediately put his consciousness into the Terran base, selected an SCV, and pressed the advanced building hotkey.

The fusion core in the lower left corner of the menu bar is still gray locked and has not been unlocked.

Go back to the previous level and press the hotkey for the base building, and find that there are no new elements unlocked either.

Then, he switched his cursor to Starport, and found a very special icon in the lower right corner, which was a slightly different pattern from the Starport thumbnail, and the cursor moved over to say "Upgrade to Starbase".

Starport? Upgrade? Upgraded to Star Base?

Tang Fang remembered a project in the beta version of StarCraft - Starport can be upgraded to a star base, while moving, while producing air force units, and at the same time has the ability to replenish energy and repair mechanical units.

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

He was speechless, speechless to the extreme.

The crafting process of the Holy Spirit-class aircraft carrier unlocks such a thing? What kind of international jokes, it's too chicken, isn't it...... It's still useful if it's put in a match, but what about now?

Speechless to speechless, he still pressed the upgrade hotbutton to upgrade the starport to a starry sky base.

Regardless of whether it is a building or not, since it is a building, the cost of 200 crystals and 200 gas is not very high, from the perspective of philately, it should also be upgraded to have fun, so that it can repair the mechanical unit that has withdrawn from the battlefield to the system space when the war situation is stalemate, isn't it?

As it turned out, his ideas were somewhat taken for granted.

The Star Base is not chicken at all, it is really not chicken at all, it is so practical that Captain Tang almost jumped up excitedly.

Vikings are gone, Banshees are gone, Wraiths, Medic, Ravens, Special Ops Transports, Valkyrie frigates, Hercules transports. Not even the unlocked Tech Orbs and Battlecruisers are gone.

They were replaced by the Lowe's Propaganda Boat, Griffon, Tactical Aircraft, Valkyrie Bomber, Zeus-class Landing Craft, Colonial Bomber, Three-Headed Pirate Capital Ship.

In other words, the Star Base unlocked by the Holy Spirit series aircraft carrier manufacturing process has expanded with 7 new air units at once.

Of course, not all of them are unlocked, only the Lowe's Propaganda Boat, Griffon, Tactical Aircraft, and Valkyrie Bomber are unlocked, and the Zeus-class Landing Craft, Colonial Bomber, and Three-Headed Pirate Capital Ship are still in gray lock, with the note: "Research Center needed." ”

He didn't know what a "scientific research center" was. The Star Base menu bar doesn't have a tech lab pendant, maybe it's the same as unlocking Egger? Stetelman's "Force Field Research Center" is a hidden building unit that needs to be unlocked separately.

Even so, the unlocking of the first 4 types of units alone is already a big surprise.

Rock's propaganda was used by the Empire for political propaganda and as a tool used by Mengsk to spy on the inhabitants of the realm, and can be seen in almost every city.

In the system notes, there are 4 major components of Rockwell propaganda support.

One. Helium bag: This huge airbag made of new polyester material has the advantages of light weight and large volume on the one hand, and has excellent bulletproof ability on the other hand, as a civilian-grade aircraft, it is naturally unable to resist the bombardment of heavy weapons such as missiles and rapid-fire cannons, but if you are holding a small revolver with a broken star or something, and want to knock it down from the sky, it is more like a cold joke that is not very funny.

Two. Broadcasting system: The Rockwell propaganda boat is equipped with multiple high-power amplifiers, which can carry out regional broadcasting. Powerful arrays of nuclear batteries are enough to sustain them for months, making them a tireless noisemaker β€” as many civilians call it. At the same time, it also carries a large and advanced holographic projector, accompanied by those encouraging policies and loud slogans, ensuring that the image of the leader can be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and he will become the most familiar star figure of the inhabitants of the whole empire.

Three. Multiple sensors: It's not just the loud noises that don't make sense, but also the disgusting old face of Monsk, or the giant searchlights that sweep the night sky from time to time under propaganda boats. It also integrates a series of less sophisticated optical cameras, electronic radars and other equipment to monitor every resident in the city. Many people fear that it will invade their privacy, of course...... Most people can't do anything about it. Unless they can live like rats in the ground, or in the sewers.

Fourth, weapon systems: they are not combat aircraft, really...... It's really not a combat flying vehicle. The slaughter of civilians counts as a battle, it's more like a game. Rockwell propaganda boats are generally not equipped with weapon systems, although it is not impossible if someone has a bracket or a mount on it to place heavy machine guns and missile launchers. But it's too petty to do so. The most correct "way to open" it should be...... BIANG! Once the helium in the capsule is replaced by hydrogen, the Rockwell propaganda boat will turn into a bomb of great power, drowning anything that comes close to it in a sea of fire.

The cost of the Rockwell airship is 300 crystals, and it occupies 1 of the population. This kind of cost is already very low in a flying unit, after all, it is a civilian-grade thing, and its combat ability is limited.

Next up is the Gryphon, whose annotation shows 4 major components.

One, Talon missiles: These missiles are as sharp as the claws of a griffin, and they are deployed on the 4 parallel launchers of the fighter. Unlike the Viking Fighter's MT50 Lanzel Flying Mine, the missile has an extremely strong armor-piercing ability, and the ultra-high temperature jet generated after hitting the target can effectively destroy the internal structure of the light aircraft, or kill the pilot.

Second, vector engine: the griffin fighter is a new type of air superiority fighter, a specially designed jet device is installed on the fighter, by adjusting the position of the diversion device, it can provide the fighter with very excellent steering force and stealth effect, especially in the space environment, the griffin fighter has excellent performance.

Third, the new fire control system: This new fire control system, which evolved from the full-range multi-target targeting system specially developed for the Valkyrie frigate, can effectively improve the range of the Gryphon fighter, as well as the practical capabilities of capturing high-speed moving targets, multiple locking, and multi-sensor information fusion, so that it can fire 4 Talon missiles at a time for multiple targets, causing heavy damage to groups of light aircraft. Thus establishing its strong position as a high-performance aerospace fighter.

Fourth, interception mode: The griffin fighter can switch to interception mode, like a fixed-point defense target launched by the Iron Raven to intercept the incoming barrage, but in this mode it cannot move and attack.

The cost of the Gryphon is comparable to that of the Viking Fighter, 150 crystals and 75 gas, and occupies 2 people.

The Tactical Combat Squad is an important part of the Renault Rangers. Used to protect the Hyperion and perform various tactical missions inside and outside the atmosphere, because of the black technology aura from Renault, they have more powerful combat power than ordinary ghost fighters, of course, Renault never admits that these are because of the protagonist's aura + technology house black technology, he will say that it is because the brave and fearless pilots have superb driving skills and combat skills.

There are four major components described in the note.

First, a new architecture: In the research and development stage, the tactical aircraft draws on the process data of the Ghost Fighter and the Viking Fighter, and reduces the size of the fighter while ensuring the complex and changeable combat capabilities of the Ghost Fighter. A much larger number of tactical aircraft could be stored in the limited internal space of the battlecruiser.

Second, aftercombustion propulsion system: The tactical aircraft was equipped with pump-suctioned oxy-fuel injectors used by the empire on medical transport aircraft, and integrated them into the power system of the fighter. Unlike the Imperial Medical Transport Aircraft, this auxiliary ejector mounted on the tactical aircraft has a more sophisticated control system, which can effectively reduce the load on the turbine and avoid excessive internal damage as in the case of the Medical Transport Aircraft. This aftercombustion propulsion system can not only be used to break through and escape, but also to perform rapid assault operations and improve the comprehensive combat level of tactical aircraft.

Three. Rational aerodynamic design: At the beginning of the research and development, the tactical aircraft was put on the work agenda as a space/atmosphere dual-purpose fighter. They replace the Ghost Fighter's laser cannon with a more agile cannon, and are also equipped with multi-purpose missile launchers, which can conduct both air combat and fire support for ground troops, and have the ability to hover in the air, which is more flexible and mobile than the Ghost fighter.

Four: ECM device: The tactical aircraft inherited the ECM device of the ghost fighter. to thwart the onion of the enemy's radar. Due to the smaller fuselage and the construction materials are also made of absorbing alloys and hollow carbon fibers, tactical aircraft can effectively reduce the threats they face in complex air combat environments.

The tactical machine is more expensive than the Griffin, 200 crystals and 100 gas, and the population is also 2.

Finally, there is the Valkyrie bomber. Mira in Star 2? Han's mercenary organization has an exclusive combat aircraft, and more importantly, the pilot is a girl, a beautiful girl with a serious eight hundred, far from Mira? Han's kind of ugly ghost. Of course, because it is a mercenary unit, and the mercenary organization and pirate organization in StarCraft have always had a very high technology tree, far exceeding the regular arms of the Empire, and the Valkyrie bomber is naturally the same.

The report on the analysis of the sample of the Valkyrie bomber was very simple, there were only 2 pieces.

First, the improved H.A.L.O missile: Slightly different from the Valkyrie frigate, this missile strengthens the armor-piercing effect and relatively weakens the sputtering ability to adapt to the severely reduced size compared to the Valkyrie frigate. The reason why Han made such a change was because the Valkyrie frigate was a very resource-wasting combat unit, and only a big force like the UED or the Empire could afford the combat supply of the Valkyrie frigate. The Valkyrie's newly expanded 2 cannons at the front seem to confirm this, transforming it from a single frigate to a multi-purpose bomber.

Second, comprehensive combat capability: as a mercenary-level combat unit, the Valkyrie bomber has a higher flight speed and in-atmosphere combat capability than its predecessor Valkyrie frigate, and at the same time has far more destructive power than Viking fighters, gryphon fighters, tactical aircraft and other small aerospace vehicles, can pose a deadly threat to heavily armored space warships, and it is equipped with a warp engine similar to a special operations transport ship and an overclocked version of the DN52 stealth device, which can carry out interstellar navigation and short-term stealth.

The system shows that the Valkyrie bomber costs 1000 crystals and 800 gas, and occupies 3 people.

He thought for a while and felt that the Valkyrie bomber should be more than 40 meters long, which was about half the size of the Valkyrie frigate.

The Zeus-class landing craft, the three-headed dog pirate capital ship, and the colonial bomber ship in the back are still locked, and the sample analysis report and cost cannot be seen.

As it stands, the Lowe's propaganda boat is of little use, and at most Elena is a good mobile propaganda tool to publish those reform regulations and government announcements after she takes full control of the Duchy of Kernar.

Of course, if it is combined with cleaning robots and detection robots that do not consume population, a comprehensive monitoring network can be formed for a city, and it can also be used in the future to achieve absolute control over the territory of "Christiel", which has been transformed into an atmospheric environment.

In fact, it's not bad to use this thing as a suicide bomber, after all, there is no need for gas, and there is still a lot of crystal resources. Moreover, once the Star Alliance goes to war with the Mengya Empire and the Sulu Empire in the future, as long as he goes to the battlefield for a turn, there will be a steady stream of crystals coming in, although the value of human life is too heavy, but he has no choice.

War and death do not exist because of Him, nor do they perish because of Him.

He is just determined to do what he thinks is right, as long as he has good intentions and a clear conscience, it is enough.

The addition of griffin fighters and tactical aircraft has enriched the selectivity of fighters, and griffin fighters can be used to deal with dense enemy aircraft groups, and tactical aircraft with strong explosive power can be selected for disrupting operations and cutting enemy aircraft formations, and the appearance of Valkyrie bombers is equivalent to adding an intermediate combat aircraft between small air and space fighters and medium-sized frigates, which can be used as the main force of air combat, and can also be used for medium and low-altitude bombing, combat, airdrop, precision strikes and other operations in the atmosphere.

Although the battlefield positioning of the Valkyrie bomber overlaps somewhat with the Scout fighters of the Protoss, the two belong to different races, and the action mode of the Protoss is very different from that of the Terran. Therefore, the Valkyrie Bomber is not a chicken unit, it can provide escort and response missions for special ops transport ships, in order to avoid a scene like the last time Aros, Claire and others were beaten to the Nightmare piloted by the Antlan version of the Black Knight.
