Chapter 324: Upgrade before the war

Of course, compared with the two main fleets of the Duke of Yadan, the Golden Ring and Shenwu, there is still a slight difference in combat power. After all, all new warships are in service in the main fleet. In the garrisoned navy of the Megall Star System, 45% of the warships are old models. This is the interior of Monya, and there is no enemy like the Charles Federation. As for the Garcia Rebels, there are nearly a thousand warships in support of the space-based defense platform. As long as they dare to come, they don't want to go back.
The 1,000-population flying dragons and corrupters not only mean that it will waste gas savings, but also the original combat units of the Zerg base must be slaughtered, which is too costly. Moreover, even if he can pull some damaged units to the system space for repairs, and fight the war of attrition through soft grinding and hard foaming, and finally win this war, I am afraid it will be a tragic victory.
Now with the addition of the Raven, the improvement of one’s own combat power is by no means as simple as 1+1. If you make good use of the timing and use reasonable tactics, let’s talk about the Recto Navy, even if Bruno’s follow-up reinforcement fleet is eaten. It is not impossible to drop.
In order to minimize the loss of your own units, an Air Force technology upgrade is the best choice. The "Kvid's Reactor" and "Durable Materials" in the Xinggang Pendant Science and Technology Laboratory can increase the energy of the Jays, the battery life of the automatic guns, and the fixed-point defense target aircraft, as well as the instantaneous automatic tracking in the engineering station. The weapon systems of automatic cannons, missile towers, planetary fortresses and fixed-point defense drones are more accurate and have a longer range. Once these items are upgraded, they will undoubtedly improve the overall combat effectiveness of the Iron Crow.
"Kadu Hughes reactor" and "stealth position", the former is to increase the energy of the medical transport aircraft, and the latter gives the Banshee fighter a stealth effect. This space war is of little significance, so there is no need to rush to upgrade.
In addition, Tang Fang once again set his sights on the spire of the Zerg base, during the previous upgrade. By upgrading the two items of "Aerial Creature Attack lv1" and "Aerial Creature Carapace lv1", Flying Dragon and Corruptor have gained the ability to rival small and medium frigates and destroyers. Since the Zerg base has already climbed to 2, after upgrading "Aerial Creature Attack lv1" and "Aerial Creature Carapace lv1". lv2's "Aerial Creature Attack" and "Aerial Creature Carapace" have also been unlocked, only because the resource consumption is 50 times that of the game. He was not willing to upgrade.
At the moment, to obtain absolute air superiority, a second upgrade is necessary.
"I can't bear to let the child catch the wolf." With a cruel heart, he stomped his feet and traced the "instantaneous automatic tracking" of the Terran Engineering Station, the "Kvid's Reactor" and "Durable Materials" in the Xinggang Science and Technology Laboratory, and the "in the Zerg Spire". "Aerial Creature Attack lv2" and "Aerial Creature Carapace lv2" are added to the upgrade sequence.
In less than a minute, these upgrade items have been upgraded successively. Looking at the resource value falling back to "12862905, 52945", Tang Fang didn't feel as painful as before. He came to "Sigma" not only to unlock Starport's subsidiary building technology laboratory, but also to expand the amount of elementary resources.
As one of the pillar enterprises of the shipbuilding industry in the duchy, "Sigma" has abundant zero-element resources, which may not be comparable to refining factories and military energy supply stations, but definitely more than ordinary heavy-duty factories. Since you have made up your mind to be a thief, you must ruin the government's stole!
Head up and sweep the copy progress bar on the central display, it has reached "83%"
"Emma, ​​send me the route map from this place to the energy warehouse."
Kung fu in the blink of an eye. A navigation map pops up from the visual interface of the harsh environment protective clothing,
"Commander, the navigation map has been delivered."
"I see." Tang Fang nodded: "That's right. After upgrading the ‘Aerial Creature Attack lv2’ and ‘Aerial Creature Carapace lv2’, what changes have been made in the combat effectiveness of Flying Dragon and Corruptor?"
Previously after upgrading "Aerial Creature Attack lv1" and "Aerial Creature Carapace lv1", Emma calculated based on the model and analyzed that the Corruptor could match the 160-meter-long thresher-class destroyer. What a terrifying level the incubator’s combat effectiveness will rise again.
"Commander,'Aerial Creature Carapace lv2' gives the Corruptor a more powerful biological carapace, which can withstand the multi-caliber orbital cannon of the Tiger Shark-class destroyer, even if it is the double caliber of the White Shark-class cruiser, or the single-loaded heavy Orbital cannon. As long as it can't hit the vital part, it's difficult to kill in one hit."
"'Aerial Creature Attack lv2' increases the attack power of the Corruptor by 30%. With the'Corruption' skill, it can cause fatal damage to the Tiger Shark-class destroyer."
Can withstand the caliber magnetic track cannon of the Tiger Shark class destroyer. Even the caliber main guns of the White Shark-class cruisers cannot kill with one blow. It is necessary to know that the thresher-class destroyer is 160 meters long, and the Tiger Shark series destroyer is about 250 meters long. According to Emma’s analysis, does it mean that the Corruptor can hold the calibre magnetic track cannon against the Tiger Shark-class destroyer? Launch a fatal blow.
In other words, after upgrading "Aerial Creature Attack lv2" and "Aerial Creature Carapace lv2", the combat effectiveness of the Corruptor is almost invincible in the destroyer gear.
The 40-meter-long Corruptor, to the 200-meter-class Tiger Shark-class destroyer, gave Tang Fang a strange feeling that a little monster would overturn Ultraman.
Immediately afterwards, Emma reported on the situation of the flying dragon. This Zerg unit, known for its mobility, was even faster and more agile than the Viking fighter under extreme flight conditions. Generally speaking, the standard weapons equipped on imperial ships cannot catch up with the flying dragons in terms of rate of fire and rotation speed.
Even if the carapace of the flying dragon is not as thick as the Corruptor, it can't hit the target and everything is in vain. You should know that in StarCraft 2, a group of flying dragons is enough to shoot down the battle cruiser. It is definitely the rhythm of punching the master. After upgrading the "Aerial Creature Attack lv2", the fighting power of the flying dragon is completely reborn, and not to mention the frigates and destroyers, facing the behemoths such as cruisers and battleships, once the flying dragons in groups are close, they can find the weak points of the armor. The consequences of breaking into the ship can be imagined.
With today's human ship weapon system, there is a tendency to return to the giant ship artillery doctrine in primitive naval battles. After all, with the advancement of related subjects. Armor materials continue to innovate, and the heavy weapons that aircraft carrier aircraft can carry play less and less role in space warfare.
On the other hand, because of the constant wars between various human nations. As a result, military technologies such as radar, guidance technology, near-defense interception systems, induction weapons, force field applications, and other military technologies have developed vigorously, which has shaken the dominance of aircraft carrier-based aircraft. therefore. Heavy ships such as cruisers, battlecruisers, and battleships gradually returned to the battlefield and gradually became the main combat units capable of competing with aircraft carriers.
However, compared to the human race in the StarCraft era. Nowadays, human technology is in a very embarrassing situation in the field of naval guns.
Old-generation artillery, missiles, rapid-fire turrets, and other ship-borne weapons are already very difficult to pose effective threats to targets in a battlefield environment of hundreds or thousands of kilometers in the universe.
The large-mass projectiles fired by the electromagnetic railgun are easily disturbed by various force fields that are advancing with the times, and it is difficult to hit the target. So today's Star Wars. Either there was thunder and heavy rain, and the two sides launched a terrifying battle, but they faced each other for a long time, fired two shots at each other and went home.
Either it is a real melee battle, because only in this way, the various weapons of the ship can exert the maximum power, and it will not be vulnerable to the combat distance, the protective field, and the interception system of the opposing ship as in the case of long-range bombing Affected. Such close melee is often fought fiercely, not only testing the commanding ability of the fleet commander, the performance of the ship, the number of troops, but also a certain element of luck.
Once the two fleets get into this state of melee, they will evolve into an endless situation.
At the moment when the speed transition mechanism is not perfect. Retreat at close range and sell the back to the enemy. It is like an opponent saying: "The chrysanthemum has been washed, the pants have been taken off, baby!" Therefore, as long as you enter a melee, unless one of the fleets is destroyed, the battle will continue. Continuing, this is also one of the reasons why dozens or millions of soldiers have been killed after a general battle. It is also the main reason why the imperial aristocracy treats civilians and soldiers as livestock.
of course. Develop new types of bullets, using different material cores, shells, and shielding coatings. It can reduce the interference of the force field, but this is not the solution after all.
In fact, all countries are working hard to develop new weapons. In order to improve the combat environment, directional weapons such as lasers, plasma beams, and charged particle cannons fire at almost the speed of light in vacuum, and it is difficult to intervene with ordinary force fields.
As long as such weapons become the mainstream configuration of battleships, the close-to-hand combat similar to the cold weapon era will be greatly reduced. The fleet only needs to open up formations and fire each other, even if the ship is damaged, as long as it is not hit by the opponent’s main artillery or encountered The intensive shooting can retreat to the rear of the fleet to save the lives of the crew.
When the commander confirms that he is losing to his opponent, the general situation is irreversible, and there is enough time to start the speed engine and return to the rear line.
However, after all, the time for human beings to enter the universe is still short. Weapon systems such as laser, plasma, and antimatter have been developing rapidly, but there are still many unsolved problems in energy collection, miniaturization, conversion efficiency, and heat dissipation.
The warp-speed engine that human beings copied from Epsilon Technology has a complex structure and a huge body size. It occupies a large part of the space in the ship, which undoubtedly reduces the installation space of the weapon system. Don't think that building a larger ship can solve this problem. The larger the ship, the larger the bending field required during the transition, and the specifications of the warp engine will increase accordingly. Moreover, it is not necessary for a bulky curved engine to have a large curved field that can be used to drive a super warship.
Giants like "Sigma" and Gemini Starport, even if they build a warp engine as long as 10 kilometers, it is impossible for them to play interstellar travel games.
Not to mention the production efficiency of anti-matter weapons. The cutting-edge equipment such as laser weapons and plasma weapons that have been assembled on space-based defense platforms and some warships also faces two important problems in application, conversion efficiency and energy supply.
Just as humans used fission energy at the beginning, there is a serious waste of resources in laser weapons and plasma weapon systems, and the conversion level is very low.
The leaking of the house happened to rain overnight, and the boat was late in the wind. This sentence to describe people's bad luck is very appropriate here. Under the premise of low energy conversion rate, energy supply is also a big problem.
The warp engine is an essential part of the warship. It uses zero elements, is bulky, and is expensive. Laser weapons and plasma weapons are not small gadgets, they are also big stomachers. The conventional ship design concept is the integration of energy supply.
Use zero elements to power laser cannons and plasma cannons? What a joke, this is simply burning money. At the moment when the zero element refining technology of the human country generally does not meet the standard, the zero element refined from the zero element mine is too short to supply the military fleet's interstellar voyage. Want to let this unpromising prodigal weapon system also have a share? The military's energy department will say "Go to hell!"
If you don't need zero-element energy, you can only turn to nuclear energy. Fission energy has radiation. And the production capacity is not high, but the fusion reactor is enough to provide powerful energy, and it is clean and has a wide range of raw materials. However, it is a pity that, like the speed engine, it is a copycat product and cannot be miniaturized in a short time.
Suppose a battleship is equipped with a warp engine and a fusion reactor. It is also equipped with directional weapons such as laser guns and plasma guns, but its volume is not a few hundred meters larger than it is absolutely impossible.
A few hundred meters in size...A ship over 400 meters is a battleship or flagship class, and 700 meters is already a mainstream aircraft carrier. If you add the crew cabin, bridge, radar system, internal life support system, restaurant, storage warehouse and other warship modules, how big is it? Even if such a warship is produced, it is a tasteless weapon, and it is a pity to discard it. It has no practical value.
To sum up, it will take dozens of hundreds of years for a battleship equipped with laser and plasma guns to become the main body of Star Wars. Of course, the direct guards of some princes, princes, and princes are another matter. After all, the lives of the nobles are much more important than zero elements. So, even if this is an extremely money-burning thing. Some noble lords are still happy, anyway, the money will eventually become exorbitant taxes and fall on the civilian slaves. To be generous with others and benefit yourself is always a profitable business.
Back to the question of the flying dragon and the corrupter. In StarCraft, against the mobile, flexible, and small Zerg units like flying dragons, the caliber of the warship's near-defense guns is small, and the caliber is too large. The speed and rate of fire cannot keep up. The air like "Wings of Thunder" Sky Fighter faces the flying dragon that has upgraded the "Aerial Creature Carapace lv2" and possesses the "Tissue Regeneration" skill. It's a compliment to say that the mantis arm is a car.
At the time of the counterattack, the scene of 15 Viking fighters hanging and fighting 48 "Thunder Wings" under the rain of missiles was still vivid. Without an armory, Viking fighters that cannot upgrade their attack power and defense power have such power. What about flying dragons that have been upgraded to 2 consecutive ranks?
In StarCraft, the weapons used by human battlecruisers to deal with flying dragons are laser cannons, and only they can pose a real threat to these hideous void hunters. But now, the Recto Navy does not have such a powerful warship, and the "Wings of Thunder" is far from being an opponent of the flying dragons. As long as they survive the attacks from the few space-based defense platforms, once the flying dragons break into the enemy fleet , What kind of scene will be staged next, you can think about it with your ass.
"Commander, the data copying has been completed." At this time, Emma's voice came in his mind. Tang Fang looked up and saw that the copy progress bar on the central display had reached the end.
"Emma, ​​everything went according to plan." After saying this, Tang Fang got up and walked out of the room. With a slight movement of thought, his whole body went into invisibility.
At the same time, the fanatics who were fighting with the guard soldiers in the "Sigma" area a disappeared at the same time.
Some soldiers who were lucky enough to survive let out a sigh of relief. Although they don’t know why those gods of death disappeared out of thin air, their lives were saved anyway. How did they come and how they got there? This question makes the damned officials Master, let's get a headache.
At the same time, on the transportation route of the space station, a part of the defensive robots transferred from the s area was being transported to the a area, preparing to show the mad woman who wanted to kill. However, when the train was only halfway through, "哧......" a sharp whistling of gold and iron came out.
Countless flying sparks were wiped out on the two magnetic tracks of the train, and the guard soldiers and the defense robots on standby fell to the ground in the carriage.
Fortunately, the braking performance of the train is excellent, and the safety aspect is also very good. The driver only suffered a few minor injuries~EbookFREE.me~ However, when he got up from under the console and looked out, he was The scene immediately bluffed him.
Dark, dark, and the only light source for the entire transportation route is the emergency lights on the walls on both sides.
"What's the matter? Who cut off the energy supply to the transportation line?" The captain looked blank.
What he didn't know was that it was not just the transportation route that was plunged into darkness, but all areas of the 40-kilometer-long "Sigma" space station were plunged into darkness. From a distance, it looks like a space cemetery.
The combat command room in Area A was also dim, and the dim light of the emergency light shone on Coverdale's old face, which from a certain angle looked like a bloodthirsty beast with teeth.
When the communication with the outside world is cut off, he can still use the most primitive method, using two legs, and using emergency intercom equipment. The closed-circuit monitoring network is paralyzed, and the movement in the quarantine area and the data room can still be heard by people, and then general operational policies are issued.
But the kid tm... he actually cut off the entire space station’s power system, and even the nuclear fission reactor, which is independent of the computer network, used to provide energy for the combat command room, equipment control center and other important departments during special periods. closed.
