1054. The Second Battle of the Model Sector (End)
It is not a simple matter for the Fin Whale-class industrial flagship to suddenly withstand almost 10 salvos from more than ten Jaeger-class battlecruisers of the Republic. This is because of the latest research results of the United Mining Group - industrial modules. , Pulse Activated Correlation Almighty Core.
This industrial module is equivalent to a super powerful energy overload system.
After activating this module, the engine's energy output will be hundreds of times greater than normal! And because the energy supply is too huge to be effectively diverted, except for the life support device, all other systems of the entire spacecraft will be offline, and all energy will be supplied to the shield system.
Because at this time, only the shield system that is constantly being beaten can digest such a huge amount of energy. The weapon system is not good. This module can only be used for shields with relatively gentle energy flow, and cannot be used for weapon systems that use explosive energy. Otherwise, the result will be that the entire spacecraft will become an oversized bomb.
The effect is so impressive, but the cost is also very high.
In addition to being unable to do anything when the module is activated, the entire battleship can only sit and wait for death. Moreover, due to the huge heat generated by the engine overload, the battleship must be docked near an icy asteroid.
As we all know, in the vacuum state of the universe, because there is no heat exchange brought by air, heat dissipation is the biggest problem. Generally, a large amount of coolant is needed.
The heat brought by the pulse-activated correlation omnipotent core is also very terrifying. This cannot be cooled by ordinary coolants. The spacecraft must be docked near an icy asteroid, and then the asteroid must be crushed into fine powder to be used as a medium. It is launched in the form of pulse waves, and the pulse waves are continuously ejected to cool down. The injection volume is so huge that ordinary cargo spacecraft cannot fit it (ps: I think this is a better explanation).
Apart from anything else, just by using the pulse-activated correlation all-powerful core this time, less than one-third of the icy asteroid with a mass of more than 2 million tons found by the spacecraft is now left.
And even so, after the continuous salvoes from the Republic warships, the pulse-activated correlation all-powerful core still inevitably melted down. And because this module is an experimental model, no one could control it after the meltdown, and the flames spread to In the engine room, there was almost a ship-wide fire, and everything was burned down.
But even so, the current Fin Whale-class industrial flagship basically needs to be repaired and replaced from the engine to the power unit, to the shield generator and the shield capacitor, plus at least 40% of the energy transmission paths.
Even though the Fin Whale is just a civilian ship, the various advanced technologies integrated on it will make this overhaul take at least 2 months, and the cost is as high as more than 40 million!
Of course, if you plan to install another set of pulse-activated correlation all-round cores, the cost will be an additional 20 million.
For Volgograd-Kanidi, the high price of more than 60 million credit points in exchange for a successful bait operation was completely worth it.
The fleet of the Galactic Republic poured all its remaining ammunition on the Fin Whale-class industrial flagship with the industrial module turned on. Therefore, despite the cover and decisive orders of Master Yoda, there were still 13 Jaeger-class battleships. A series of cruisers broke through the encirclement and entered the hyperspace channel, but those battleships had almost no combat effectiveness.
…
At the same time, the planet Annaji.
The battle between the civilian fleet and the Republic Squadron has reached an extremely fierce stage. Hundreds of small spacecraft of various types launched a crazy attack on the Republic Squadron. They were not afraid of death and rushed over again and again with every weapon on their spacecraft. A capable turret opened fire on the 10 Jaeger-class ships.
If it is normal,
The 10 fully prepared Jaeger-class battlecruisers will not be afraid of these hundreds of small spacecraft at all. Because there are more than 4,000 fully loaded carrier-based aircraft on the 10 Jaeger-class ships, so if there is a real fight, the real numerical advantage should be on the Jaeger-class side.
But this is not normal!
The remaining 10 Jaeger-class battlecruisers were originally heavily consumed in a series of previous battles, such as battleships that broke into the planet's atmosphere to perform landing missions.
On the one hand, leaving them behind is because they may not be able to get supplies during the expedition to the Kuna Star Cluster, so going in the best condition is the best choice. On the other hand, these remaining warships can continue to search for supplies on the spot, and then replenish their depleted material warehouses.
However, this is only the best case scenario.
In fact, there is almost no day of peace on these planets in the Model Sector. Various riots and strikes occur one after another. In addition, it is not known whether they are real interstellar pirates or fake ones of the navy that are raging everywhere. In short, almost every super Space lanes are being plundered.
Under such circumstances, not only did the remaining Republic squadron receive supplies, they even had to go on repeated expeditions to eliminate those pesky interstellar pirates and ensure smooth transportation routes.
Therefore, these 10 Jaeger-class battlecruisers are also in a state of exhaustion!
And they finally got a batch of supplies from the Airu people whose industrial system was destroyed. Before they started loading, they were attacked by this motley civilian fleet.
Facing the frantically attacking civilian fleet, they had to put up a very passive defensive formation.
And those civilians naturally know what the Republic fleet values most - the transport fleet hiding behind!
Those spaceships were like locusts, trying their best to attack the transport fleet, causing the Republic's warships to lose sight of one thing.
Finally, at this moment, exciting news was received on the bridge of the flagship of the Republic Squadron - hyperspace fluctuations were detected, and a fleet of large battleships was approaching! .
There is no doubt that it is their own fleet!
It's Master Yoda and the others who have returned triumphantly from the Kuna Star Cluster!
Nearly every soldier and officer in the Republic thought so.
With a flash of dazzling white light, 13 Jaeger-class battlecruisers left the hyperspace channel and appeared near the outer orbit of the planet Annaji.
However, these 13 battleships are all covered in devastation. The armor in many places has hideous damage. There are still many places where the flames have not been extinguished and are spraying long flames into the vacuum of space. .
All Republic soldiers who saw this image on their sensors were stunned.
Generally speaking, when a spacecraft enters a hyperspace channel without extinguishing the fire, it is likely to malfunction. This is something that any experienced captain will avoid.
However, if a fleet sails into hyperspace with such an attitude, then there is only one possibility - they are running for their lives!
Sure enough, the radar soldier roared loudly, "Another hyperspace fluctuation detected! From...from..."
A large dazzling white light began to flash. This was the phenomenon of a large fleet leaving the hyperspace channel...
The radar soldier turned back to the squadron commander with a blank look on his face, "It's from another fleet..."_&
