Chapter 1070: Hades-class aircraft carrier

The system shows that the Zeus-class landing ship is composed of three major components. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

First, the weapon system: In the war against the insects, the Hercules transport ship plays an extremely important role, but due to the lack of weapons and equipment, even if there is a fighter escort, it is regarded as an easy object by the insect swarm, and sometimes the Wyvern troops will ignore the Viking fighters and other escort forces, and directly attack the Hercules transport ship without attack power, destroy it and fly away. This humiliating act angered the top generals of the Imperial military, so it became urgent to equip the Hercules transport ship with weapons to fight back against the insects, and under pressure from the top, the engineers took into account the situation on the front line and equipped it with two 60mm Gatling cannons to deal with the light-armored Wyvern swarm.

Second, reinforced armor: After equipping the Hercules transport ship with anti-aircraft weapons, in order to strengthen its survivability on the battlefield, the imperial engineers arranged more secondary steel on the surface while ensuring the flight speed, carrying capacity, ejection compartment, and rapid deployment ability, so that the Hercules transport ship has a strong defensive power. Of course, this modification came at the cost of having to carry a heavier hull with a higher output reactor.

3. Command Module: The modified Hercules transport ship is like a dazzling new star on the battlefield, releasing its light and heat, allowing the Empire to win several successive victories in the frontline battle against the Alien Insects. And then a letter from Horeth? Warfield's researchers were sent back to the military's research institute, asking them to retrofit a command module inside the Zeus-class landing ship, which had been renamed the Zeus-class landing ship, so that the ship could not only perform transport missions, but also become a steel fortress and combat command center. It has proved that the installation of a command module on Zeus-class landing ships is an upgrade of both strategic and tactical significance. Its presence greatly alleviates the many difficulties faced by the Imperial Army in opening up new battlefields, which also makes the Zeus-class landing ship a sought-after upstart for the Imperial Army.

The cost of the Zeus-class landing ship is 8,000 crystals and 5,000 gas, occupying 5 of the population, and the resource consumption is much more than that of the Hercules transport ship. However, considering its comprehensive combat effectiveness and the role it plays on the battlefield, it is logical that it is more expensive than the Hercules transport ship.

In terms of skills, Zeus-class landing ships are similar to Hercules-class carriers, with the active skill "Loading" and the passive skill "Rapid Deployment", in addition to the special ability "Upgrade to Combat Command Center", which can be turned into a defensive structure like a bunker, while providing additional communication support and command bonuses, but it must be upgraded with a certain amount of resources in the research center.

Because of the existence of weapon systems, the attack and defense research of human ships can also be useful in it.

The Hercules transport ship can be said to be the main transport ship under the Tang side, which not only plays the role of a space shuttle used to transport a large number of people, but also a support unit in a ground war, and can quickly deploy multiple Thor, siege tanks and other large-sized combat units. Now with the Zeus-class landing ship, its significance goes beyond that of a whirlwind fanatic to a fanatic, whether in the field of space transportation or in the field of ground support, it will greatly enhance his military strength.

And finally, the colonial bombers. If the Hercules transport ship is a tool used by the empire for short-distance transportation, then the colonial bomber is an indispensable long-range transport ship for interstellar colonization activities. They are generally not involved in front-line operations or relatively short-distance transportation of people and goods. As a large warship with specifications beyond that of battlecruisers, colonial bombers are dedicated to interstellar colonization activities, helping human beings expand their fields of activity and discover new planets and resources to support the progress of civilization. The interior of this ship has a full range of living facilities and the space needed to support life's activities, enough to accommodate thousands of people on long journeys. The Colonial Bomber also has a colony module that allows humans to quickly deploy outposts on uninhabited planets.

The system shows that the Colonial Bomber has three main components.

First, the bombing module: the colonial bomber did not have combat capability in the early stage of its construction, and it was a large carrier ship integrating scientific research, life and colonization, but in the process of colonization activities of the empire, it would always encounter such and such troubles, among which the small insect swarms scattered on the strange planet became the biggest threat to the life safety of the colonists, so the module originally used for orbital airdrop was modified to have the function of orbital bombardment, so as to cover the fire of human scientists and staff on the planet. Of course, the bombing module can also be used against an air enemy, but its combat effectiveness is limited and it cannot be used against swarms of Insect air like battlecruisers.

2. Colonial module: The colonial bomber can not only carry out orbital bombardment of the designated area and deploy the corresponding staff in the drop pod, but also has a more complete large-scale orbital airdrop capability, which is enough to completely deploy the ecological museum or outpost that provides human habitation and life to the surface of the planet to carry out the preliminary exploration, research, construction and other tasks of the planet colonization. The creation of each habitation star generally begins with the colonization module of the colonial bombership.

Third, the living module: The colonial bomber ship is not loaded with a large amount of combat equipment, nor does it need to carry military-grade reactors and large-scale maintenance arrays, and has enough internal space to build living quarters. Even the largest colonial bomber can see small towns that integrate daily necessities trading markets, entertainment and leisure facilities------ in fact, colonial bombers are well-deserved giant ships of mankind.

The system shows that the cost of the colonial bomber is 154,000 crystals, 82,000 gas, and occupies 6 people, although it is larger in size, but the resource consumption is lower than that of the Minotaur-class battlecruiser and the three-headed dog-class pirate capital ship, which may be because it lacks combat effectiveness compared to the three-headed dog-class pirate capital ship, and is purely a warship used for deep space exploration and interstellar colonization.

The skill aspect is empty, and there are neither active nor passive skills. Probably because this kind of ship is out of the military system and is more inclined to the civilian and scientific fields, like with Miro? Kaczynski unlocks the same engineering as a mobility vehicle.

After browsing through the three newly unlocked units, Tang Fang couldn't help but have some plans and ideas. Ships like the Three-Headed Canine-class pirate capital ship are obviously not suitable for one's own use, with the Seraph, the Arbiter, the Minotaur-class battlecruiser and the Void Glow ship, there is no need to summon the three-headed canine pirate capital ship at all. And with his current status, he really doesn't need to play a pirate leader, if the Apollo Pirates hadn't been whitewashed, he could have given Byron a few ships, now...... Not at all necessary.

Although it is useless for him to live in the Tianchao Star Zone, this kind of pirate-specific warship is very suitable for the old Marion who fights guerrilla warfare in the territory of the Star Alliance. It is important to know that the number of zero-element particle spatial effect fields is limited, and it will be more and more difficult for Garcia's resistance to hide their whereabouts as the strength of the Garcia Resistance grows in the future. Moreover, he has been in the Star Alliance for more than 1 year, and he has made a lot of fame, and is regarded by Marion Sr. as the future heir and new leader of Garcia's rebels. But what about ...... At most, he only contacted the old man a few times at most, and sent some usable information through Alice's channels, but he didn't contribute more to Garcia's resistance, which was a bit of a loss.

Recently, he joined the Covenant nationality, was elected as an honorary advisor to the National Security Council, and helped the Covenant save people, relieved the embarrassment of the two major no-man's lands, and suppressed the Xudra Legion from daring to invade the Covenant border. Although Grant, Churchill and others don't say it, they will inevitably feel a little uncomfortable...... Even if they understand that doing so is to help Garcia's rebels accumulate advantages from the side and consume the military strength of the noble legions of the Monya Empire, but the truth is reasonable, and there will always be a little unhappiness emotionally.

He, affectionately known as the Messiah of the East by Garcia's rebels, should also make a good statement, and perhaps the three-headed canine pirate capital ship is a good gift. However, he also understands that now is not the time, and he must wait until the system building can be concretized, or the upper limit of Terran units can be expanded, so that it is possible to send strategic materials to the Garcia Resistance, so that Marion and those people do not have to look up to the faces of the Charles Federation and the Republic of Dolanx.

He always remembered that when he was in Crotan, Charles's federal envoy Gabrieth disrespected him and Marion, so he would not be unconditionally close to Charles Federation just because it was a people's country, and the betrayal of the Star Alliance government gave him a head start.

When his interests conflict with national interests, like Dalton? Evelyn is the kind of person who will eventually choose the latter, even if they feel guilty and have a troubled conscience, but if they are given another chance, they will still make the same choice.

He didn't dare to agree with Dalton? Evelyn and others made decisions, but admired their spirit, at least this group of people are really worried about the country and the people, not butchers like Lancelot, Mackintosh, and Halifax, who are only responsible for power, and never consider the life and death and suffering of the people at the bottom, and ask them if they are happy and have dignity as human beings.

The Zeus-class landing ships are a complement to the medical transport aircraft and Valkyrie frigates, complementing the Terran air force. As for the colonial bombers, they don't have much effect for him for the time being, so he can let them go for now.

He then continued to look for the second unlock as Emma said, moving the cursor to the functional buildings in the base, and finally found a golden yellow icon similar to a Mobius reactor in the lower right corner of Starport, and the system displayed "Data synchronization has been completed." ”

This thing again? Count the buildings that have gold icons...... There are bunkers, ghost colleges, barracks, and starports. This option appears in a total of 4 buildings.

"I wish the data sync was going faster!" He sighed, then moved his attention away from the system space and turned back to the real space, and suddenly found that nearly 16 hours had passed, and Emma had cracked the security system of the Hades-class aircraft carrier and was transferring the available data to the planetary command center.

If it weren't for the system detection process sensing the available data and waking him up, I'm afraid he would still be asleep.

"Emma, how's it going, have you sorted out any details about this aircraft carrier?"

"You're awake, Commander." As Emma spoke, she sent a document to the computer system of the harsh environment suit: "The information and information about the Hades-class aircraft carrier have been compiled and are waiting for your review. ”

Tang Fang nodded, said the word "good", dismissed Emma, patted his face to make his mind clearer, and then clicked on the document and began to read the battleship information that Emma had sorted out.

As the flagship of the Anubis Legion, the Hades-class aircraft carrier far surpasses the supercarrier of the sovereign states of the Hillembir Region in terms of attack power, defense power, mobility and ship carrying capabilities. It is not like the Cloud Whale class, Floyd-class, and God-King class aircraft carriers, which generally stay at the level of loading fighter weapons and boat units, but can be used as a battleship-class weapon mothership like the Angel, the Hades-class aircraft carrier can accommodate a total of 18 Pluto-class destroyers, 54 Cerberus-class missile frigates, and a Stygian-class air and space fighter squadron and other unmanned aerial vehicles can be deployed.

In terms of shipborne weapons, it has 36 small and medium-sized projectile weapons, 8 pulse laser cannons, 12 missile launch towers, plus two sets of heavy torpedoes and deep space bomb launchers. Compared with the supercarriers of sovereign states, Hades-class aircraft carriers can be called armed to the teeth, and can be deployed to the frontline battlefield as a capital ship for attacking fortifications.

In terms of defense, it is equipped with a diamond shield, but due to the limited output power of the zero element reactor, it is impossible to supply such a large ship for a long time to maintain a fully enclosed shield, and under normal circumstances, the shield of the Hades-class aircraft carrier is in a semi-open state, similar to the Cerberus-class missile frigate, but there is a slight difference, in combat situations, the semi-open shield of the Hades-class aircraft carrier can respond to the information from the early warning computer and change the local structure. To put it simply, the Hades-class aircraft carrier is similar in size to a centipede, which can be divided into 10 segments. The semi-enclosed shields that wrap around these 10 sections can be connected together or distributed sporadically, such as wrapping a section in its entirety, appearing on the port side of the forward 5-segment hull or on the starboard side of the rear 5-segment hull.

It seems that the shield system of the Hades-class aircraft carrier uses this mode of operation because of the insufficient output power of the zero-element reactor and the inability to maintain a fully enclosed shield for a long time, but in Tang Fang's view, this shield operation mode is more excellent for the Hades-class aircraft carrier, which can reduce the burden on the reactor, respond to external attacks more flexibly, and reduce unnecessary losses, and secondly, the adjustable shield system can ensure the free entry and exit of carrier-based ships, even if the Hades-class aircraft carrier is suddenly attacked, it can be put on the battlefield as soon as possible. It also provides cover and rapid containment during retreat. (To be continued.) )
