756. Assault on Cato-Neimoidia (Part 2)
How terrifying the Plague's 500-meter-diameter super-matter electromagnetic gun is, it is difficult to measure it with numbers. The only thing that can be known is that none of the battleship shields currently in service can withstand the full power of this super-matter electromagnetic gun.
Not even the previous battleship Venom Fang.
What's more, the Plague is still overloaded!
By over-running the engine and increasing the energy level in a short period of time, it is equivalent to obtaining greater power by overdrafting the life of the engine.
This increases the power of the Plague's main gun by at least 50%!
The Commander-class dreadnought is 8,000 meters long. It is already a very exaggerated warship, but after all, it is from the previous era. The entire warship required more than 43,000 people to operate, which wasted a lot of space. Moreover, due to the background of Rusang's reform at that time, all aspects of equipment could not be perfect.
The Ragnarov-class Titan battleship is just the opposite!
As a dazzling beam of light shot directly at the side of the Commander-class dreadnought, the battleship's shield was instantly broken, and the huge projectiles continued to punch a terrifying hole in the battleship!
At this time, the Commander-class dreadnought was not completely defenseless. It was not directly scrapped by one shot like the previous flagship Golden Light, but the projectile still hit a deep hole in the middle of the battleship. A large hole with a diameter of more than 800 meters and a diameter of more than 600 meters.
At this time, the battleship still has not lost its ability to move, but most of the turrets have misfired, the battleship's gravity generator has also been destroyed, and now the entire battleship is beginning to tilt.
There is no doubt that even if this battleship has not been scrapped, it has basically lost its combat capability.
As for Republic Squadron 7, they lost their flagship for the second time.
At the same time, the Trade Alliance guard fleet was also firing on all cylinders, engaging in fierce exchanges of fire with the warships of the 7th Squadron. Tens of thousands of Vulture robot fighters took off from the donut-shaped Rookery Hook-class battleship and pounced on them viciously.
Not only that, mixed among these vulture robots, there is also a fighter plane with a similar shape but larger size and looks more ferocious!
This type of fighter is more than three times as long as the Vulture fighter, with a total length of 12.48 meters. The dish-shaped fuselage, which is exactly the same as the Vulture fighter, also provides a larger volume.
Compared with the Vulture fighter, an ultra-light robot fighter that relies on quantity, this is a truly powerful weapon - the Hyena-class bomber (ps: it doesn't sound good to translate it as hyena).
As a new generation bomber jointly developed by the Trade Alliance and the Technology Alliance, the Coyote robot bomber has extremely powerful firepower and inherits the consistent compactness and efficiency of the robot fighter. Its combat effectiveness directly surpasses the current Y-wing bomber of the Galactic Republic.
In an extremely important wealth world like Cato Neimoidia, this new type of equipment will naturally be equipped as soon as possible.
After the fighter jet group of the Trade Alliance defenders broke into the battlefield, the 7th Squadron, which once again lost its command, almost immediately fell into chaos! And unlike last time, this time, they didn't have any time to reorganize their command system!
Almost every Republic fighter jet was entangled by several Vulture robot fighter jets, and then a formation of Coyote robot bombers rushed directly against the battleship's close firepower, launching deadly proton torpedoes one after another.
At the same time, other warships from the Trade Federation's guard fleet also joined the battle group, exerting their powerful firepower.
In fact, the warships in the Trade Federation's fleet are much more advanced than the warships in the 7th Squadron. The Shenyi-class destroyer is the latest type of warship, the Generosity-class frigate is more or less a large warship that can stand up to a battle, and the Rookery The Hooker-class battleships also underwent many modern upgrades during the refit process.
But the reason why they did not dare to take any rash action before was because they did not want to affect their precious world of wealth due to the outbreak of fighting. On the other hand, the 7th Squadron had an 8,000-meter Commander class and a 4,000-meter Governor class. There are giant battleships such as the 2,500-meter Prosecutor-class.
However, these giant battleships no longer pose any threat.
The emergence of the Plague Titan battleship made these giant battleships targets for the Plague's 500-meter-caliber cannon.
Fired three times, killing two Commander-class dreadnoughts and more than 1,000 fighter jets. Such terrifying firepower directly frightened the operators of the Republic fleet.
The battle quickly developed out of control. The warships of the 7th Squadron were bumping around like headless chickens, completely losing their ability to coordinate operations.
At the same time, the Plague also stopped overloading its engines and did not continue to fire its main guns. Instead, it attacked with other weapons equipped on the battleship.
Even if the main gun is not used, the extremely powerful energy core of the Plague can still exert terrifying firepower, and the rays emitted by those heavy X-ray turrets are almost devastating.
Having previously failed to severely damage the Plague before the Trade Federation fleet took action, the 7th Squadron also lost this opportunity forever.
And now, the Plague is using its terrifying firepower to tell the Republic officers and soldiers of the 7th Squadron what the deterrent power a truly giant ship should have!
In the constant battle, the Commander-class dreadnought that was hit in the middle by the Plague also suffered constant impacts. The Republic soldiers on the battleship were undoubtedly brave. They controlled the hundreds of turrets to shoot at the target, but with almost no effect.
As the battle progressed, the big hole made by the Plague's main gun began to be torn apart, getting bigger and bigger.
An Inquisitor-class battlecruiser flew over and tried to catch the break with a tractor beam to slow down the process, but it was ultimately unable to do so. The Commander-class dreadnought is too huge and cannot be pulled by a 2,500-meter prosecutor-class.
Finally, the Commander-class dreadnought was completely broken into two pieces, completely turning into a huge space coffin.
This is the same fate as the 7th Squadron.
In Coruscant, the capital of the Republic, and the Dawn Planet in the Endor system, two voices were heard at the same time, one was an angry roar and the other was a proud laugh.
The communication was connected, and Newt Gunray's cramped figure appeared in front of Tang Xiao. He said in a trembling voice, "I disobeyed Lord Sidious's order... He will kill me, he will definitely Kill me!"
"He won't kill you, at least not now. Because if he kills you now, he won't get anything." Tang Xiao said with a smile.
However, now, his iconic smile seemed as terrifying to Newt Gunray as a demon.
