Chapter 547: New Battleship
545, New Battleship
Jedi Master Green Betty bowed slightly and said to Suramar very politely: "Thank you for your cooperation, Your Majesty the Governor, as a fleet supply After that, we will attack immediately, and we must not delay the opportunity to fight."
Green Betty is a female Bosa, not tall, about 1.45 meters, although she is very elegant, she still looks the same. Just like Grandma Wolf.
The average height of the Bothans is only about 1.5 meters. With their hairy bodies and bulging noses, they look like a hybrid of hunting dogs and lions. They are also notoriously cunning in the galaxy. Therefore, they are often seen in the intelligence services of the Republic.
Suramar nodded, walked to the huge panoramic window of the command center with his cane, and looked at the Venator-class Star Destroyer (Venator-class Star Destroyer) that was the closest.
It is daytime on this side of the planet Havin. Under the light of stars, the 1137-meter-long dagger-shaped battleship in the spaceport reflects softly.
The flat hull, which is very similar to the Cheer-class assault landing ship, is full of industrial beauty. The catamaran bridge standing behind the battleship is several times larger than the Cheer-class, and it also looks more powerful.
This kind of warship designed by Lila Blissex, the current chief designer of Quat Power Shipyard, also represents the perfect crystallization of the highest technological and industrial capabilities of the Galactic Republic. Lila Blissex Xx also proved that she was fully capable of taking over the work of her talented battleship designer father, Willix Blissex, and designing extremely powerful battleships for the military.
Jäger-class battlecruiser, officials at Quat Power Shipyard prefer to call this battleship a Star Destroyer. In fact, this classification did not exist in the Galactic Republic more than 3,000 years ago. In the Anax War College system that was implemented - of course, because this system is outdated, the classification of the Galactic Republic's warships is now very confusing.
However, in order to highlight the power of the battleships they produced, the people at Quat Power Shipyard directly named the battleship they produced as a Star Destroyer, which was somewhat exaggerated.
But the Jaeger-class battlecruiser is truly powerful!
The main guns of this warship are 8 twin-mounted DBY-827 heavy-duty turbolaser cannons, the secondary guns are 2 twin-mounted medium-sized laser cannons, and there are 52 point defense laser cannons to protect the warships. direction, and 4 heavy-duty ship-to-ship proton torpedo launchers, each equipped with 16 bombs.
However, the eight twin-mounted DBY-827 heavy-duty turbolaser cannons are arranged on both sides of the bridge in the second half of the battleship. This very strange arrangement prevents the Jaeger-class from being able to exert its full power in any direction. Firepower (Xiao Jing always thought those were anti-aircraft guns at first, but after careful comparison, he found out that this one is really the main gun, which is so weird), especially when the bow of the ship is facing the enemy, it is almost only three points One of the firepower.
This strange turret arrangement is to make way for the huge hangar on the battleship, which is more than 600 meters long. Almost the entire front end of the Jaeger-class hull is the location of the hangar. When fully loaded, the Chasseur-class can carry up to 420 fighter jets. In terms of design, the Chasseur-class will include 192 V-19 Torrent light fighters, 192 ETA-2 interceptors and 36 ACR-170 Heavy fighter.
However, because the ETA-2 interceptors and ACR-170 fighters have not yet begun to be installed, the standard for these 60 Jaeger-class battlecruisers is 150 V-19 Torrent fighters and 80 Z-95 Headhunter fighters. In addition, there are 30 BTL-BY wing bombers, and more space needs to be reserved for the takeoff and landing of transport ships.
In order to facilitate the take-off of this huge fleet, the entire upper part of the Jaeger-class battlecruiser can be unfolded, revealing the 500-meter-long platform inside, so that all these fighter jets can take off in a short time.
Although the design of the Jaeger-class battlecruiser is very classic, it also has many limitations of the era. In fact, it is precisely because of the flat hull and huge hangar that more point defense turrets are needed for protection. Moreover, the design of the gallery guns makes the warship's firepower inflexible and must be adjusted as the warship turns. Shooting direction.
And the huge hangar comparable to an aircraft carrier also brings hidden dangers in defense. In fact, without a shield, the Jaeger-class battlecruiser is far inferior to the Cheer-class strike The landing ship is so resistant to beating.
Even with so many shortcomings, the Jaeger-class battlecruiser is enough to be proud of almost all battleships in this era, and is well-deserved to be the strongest!
Watching the transport ships fully loaded with soldiers descending from the hangar platform of the Jaeger class, Governor Suramar's eyes became intense. He seemed to see this extremely powerful fleet raiding Bespin and destroying the Dawn Planet. Picture of the fleet being completely destroyed!
After seeing the fierce offensive of the Dawn Planet, Suramar was also a little uneasy about taking up the position of Governor of the 19th Legion. The fall of the planet Bespin and the surrender of the planet Seria became the first two incidents of his new official taking office, almost burning him to death.
And now this third fire must burn the Dawn Planet until it hurts, and even burns it to death!
Only in this way can I sit securely in my position as governor.
Tang Xiao, the Governor of Dawn Planet, this name has been deeply etched in his heart since the first day he took office. "Your Majesty the Governor? The above is my battle plan this time. I hope you can support it." Green Betty's voice came from the side.
But Suramar's mind was completely attracted by the Jaeger-class battlecruiser, and he didn't react until Betty called a second time. He turned around and said with a smile: "We will provide all the support you need for your actions."
He waved, and the waiter brought a few glasses of juice to the two pairs of Jedi masters and apprentices in front of him. Then he signaled and said: "Let me first of all wish you a successful start."
Green Betty nodded, took the juice and took a sip, "May the force be with you, Your Excellency the Governor."
……
Planet Bespin, outer defense line.
"Hyperspace jump detected at the forward outpost! We are still 4 seconds away [Note 1]!" The messenger turned back and said loudly to Matt Horner.
Matt Horner raised his wrist and looked at his watch, then at the holographic star map in front of him, and said: "Countdown to 120 seconds to detonate the target minefield!"
"Yes! "The technicians on the side immediately began to execute the instructions.
"Notify all units to enter combat status immediately! Sound the alarm!!" Matt Horner continued to order.
Woo~~~Woo~~~Woo~~~ A shrill alarm sounded immediately throughout the battleship, and the crew members and robots who were already on standby immediately concentrated on their positions.
All the lighting lights inside the battleship were extinguished, leaving only the red indicator light. The blood-red color immediately made the atmosphere become solemn.
All weapons begin to charge and shields rise.
Especially the 50 Cole-class battlecruisers of Fleet A, which have already charged the large-caliber super electromagnetic gun in front, and are just waiting for an order to launch the first round of saturation strikes!
"...4, 3, 2, 1...detonate!!!"
As the technician shouted, a minefield preset near the Corellian trade channel detonated instantly!
The powerful explosion power of the air mine swept across an area stretching for thousands of kilometers in an instant!
Almost at the same time as the explosion detonated, violent white light flashed continuously, and 60 Jaeger-class battlecruisers appeared there, baring their ferocious fangs towards the planet Bespin!
