Chapter 260: Fleet A formed into an army
258. Fleet A formed into an army
With the several battleships previously captured from Vigo-Kash-Garulan of the Black Sun, almost all Repairs and modifications were completed, and five CR-70 frigates and a Predator-class heavy supply ship joined their fleet.
As for those five CR-70 frigates, they are not qualified to join the current A fleet sequence of the fourth civilization, but they still have other uses.
The Hammerhead-class cruiser Iron Fang commanded by Volgograd-Kanidi returned to the Endor system and was repainted. After being painted with the standard livery of the Fourth Group, it and 5 CR- 70 frigates formed a local fleet and then went to the planet Semels. The fleet was numbered S.
The Jackals also suffered a lot of losses in the previous battles. Counting their commander Buka, there are still 13 left. They have temporarily withdrawn from the Iron Fang cruiser and have other uses.
Canidi also handed over the captaincy as he wished, and the command of the battleship was handed over to another master captain. However, he did not get a vacation to return to the Dawn Planet, but followed the fleet to Semir. Si Planet, responsible for production management. Tang Xiao has not forgotten this weirdo who hates fighting but is not a virgin. He just hopes that time can heal the unknown wounds in his heart and bring out his master-level abilities.
The Predator-class heavy supply ship has undergone extensive modifications, with all cargo holds removed and converted into hangars. This renovation was simpler than imagined, so the construction period was 3 months faster than expected.
Because the Predator-class heavy supply ship originally had a small hangar platform, and the entrance and exit were located in the center of the catamaran hull, while the cargo holds were on both sides. Then the transformation is very simple. Open the passage between the cargo bay and the hangar platform, install the crane and rails, and it will soon be transformed into two new hangars.
After completing the transformation, the aircraft capacity of this Predator-class heavy supply ship has been increased from 30 to 134. In addition to some space used to carry shuttles and transport aircraft, it can carry a full 110 Phantom fighters. ! It can be said that it has become a standard light aircraft carrier!
The only drawback is that the Predator-class has not originally considered carrying such a large aircraft capacity, so the hangar platform can only take off and land one aircraft at the same time. This makes its flight formation attack rate far inferior to that of professional aircraft carriers. However, That's enough.
This 800-meter-long large battleship has now become the largest battleship in the Fourth Civilization Navy, and was naturally incorporated into Fleet A and became the flagship of Fleet A. It was named by Tang Xiao himself—— Home number!
Homeland light aircraft carrier!
Fleet A of the Fourth Civilization now has one light aircraft carrier, 20 Revenge-class light destroyers, 40 Cobalt-class heavy frigates, 20 Pulse-star light frigates and 70 Hammer-class light frigates . Pulling out such a fleet can already become a force that cannot be ignored!
What surprised Tang Xiao even more was that as the light aircraft carrier Homeland joined active service, one more legendary figure actually met the awakening conditions.
Seeing this name, Tang Xiao's eyes lit up and he immediately chose to wake up and asked him to come to the office to find him immediately after completing the physical examination.
There was a knock on the office door, and a 30-year-old soldier walked in. He was not tall. He had a square face, thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a resolute expression. He had a very standard military appearance, with short, capable hair. After he came in, he gave Tang Xiao a standard military salute and said loudly: "Hello, manager." ! ! Matt Horner reports to you!"
Seeing the man in front of him, Tang Xiao nodded with great satisfaction. The fleet commander he had been longing for finally came! Matt Horner, from "StarCraft", served as Jim Rayner's adjutant and later grew into an Imperial Admiral.
He may not have any amazing talents, but he is serious, responsible and meticulous in his work. He may not give you any surprises, but you can rest assured if you leave the matter to him! Such people are exactly what the navy of the fourth civilization lacks most.
It seems that after the light aircraft carrier Homeland joined the battle order, the fleet of the fourth civilization could really be called a fleet, so Matt Horner's awakening conditions were met.
Tang Xiao looked at him with a smile and said: "I now have a fleet that I want to hand over to you for management. Are you confident?"
Matt Horner was obviously stunned, "Manager! I'm new here. I’m afraid it’s inappropriate to be in a high position directly. I am willing to work from the bottom and be recognized and promoted based on my ability.”
It seems that the Matt Huo in front of me is different regardless of his age or temperament. Nadu should be in his former state as Jim Rayner's lieutenant, rather than in his prime as an Imperial admiral. But this is a good thing. Thinking of this, Tang Xiao said sternly: "No need, this fleet commander is a test for you. Currently, our fleet commander is a guest appearance by the commander-in-chief of our navy, and your arrival just frees him up. This is an order, we must lead this fleet well!”
“Yes! Make sure to complete the mission!” Matt Horner was extremely excited and stood at attention again.
"The fleet assigned to your command is Fleet A, including a light aircraft carrier and 150 combat ships of various types. Currently we do not have large-scale combat missions, but our long-term mission is to continuously combat Black Sun, the largest gang organization in the galaxy. In addition, In addition, we must ensure the safety of our galaxy. This is your responsibility!"
"Yes! I will get to work immediately, even if I die!" Matt Horner responded immediately.
"Okay, Ni Yongxiao is currently in charge of the task of attacking Black Sun. After you get familiar with Fleet A, contact him as soon as possible and cooperate with his actions!"
"Yes!"
Letting Matt Horner leave, Tang Xiao breathed a sigh of relief. He finally had a reliable person to command the fleet. Although Igor Zavalov is also a very good commander, after all, his official position is Commander-in-Chief of the Navy, and it is not a problem to lead the fleet around all day long. Now it's just right to hand it over to Matt Horner. He is the best candidate for the commander of Fleet A in terms of ability and potential.
The same problem exists with Army Commander-in-Chief Xiao Guanghua, but Xiao Guanghua has mentioned several times that he is not good at holding this position. He prefers to be a front-line commander rather than staying in the office. But now the army is still small and there are no suitable candidates, so we have to make do with it.
[Manager, the biological laboratory's research on the Incholi people has already produced preliminary results, and the research director hopes that you will come and see it in person. 】The voice of the mastermind came.
That legendary biologist who buys one and gets two free? The speed is really fast!
"Okay, I'll go there now." Tang Xiao stood up, followed the guidance to the hangar platform, and took the shuttle to the independent biological experiment space station.
However, as soon as he stepped off the shuttle and walked into the experimental space station, a figure quickly bumped into him in the corridor! Tang Xiao had a premonition, but he also realized that if he avoided it, the figure would undoubtedly hit the wall, so he stopped immediately.
With a thud, the figure hit his stomach and fell to the ground.
Tang Xiao lowered his head and saw an eleven or twelve-year-old girl lying on the ground rubbing her forehead. She had fair skin and blond hair, and she looked very cute.
