Chapter 859: Judgment of Equality (Part 2)
858. Judgment of Equality (Part 2)
“Infinity-class super aircraft carrier!” Newt Gunray’s eyes almost burst into flames. "This is... this is a complete design blueprint! If this thing is put on the black market... no, the people at Kuat Power Shipyard are absolutely willing to spend trillions of credits to buy this thing!"
" This is the power of knowledge, Newt Gunray. Now, I hand over the power of the Eye of God to you... You will wield this powerful power to defeat the Galactic Republic and defeat Darth Sidious. What's more important is to defeat your fear! That's right...this is the power of knowledge!" Darth Malthael's smile was a little scary.
Everyone present looked at the data displayed in this memory...
The Endless-class super aircraft carrier has a length of 5,694.2 meters, a maximum width of 833.3 meters, a maximum height of 1,041.2 meters, and a standard mass of 907 million tons... It can carry individual atmospheric assault pods, various tank armor units, a large number of fighter jets, and even 10 ships Heavy frigate!
There is no doubt that this is an extremely powerful battleship!
This battleship is equivalent to a fleet, plus a powerful mechanized army!
The eyes of everyone present changed. You must know that the design of such a super battleship has always been the patent of a super industrial giant like Kuat Power Shipyard, and the development cost of such a battleship is, It is conservatively estimated to be hundreds of billions of credit points!
Even though the Trade Federation and the Interstellar Banking Association are so rich, they still cannot design such a warship.
For example, the Trade Federation's Rookery Hook-class battleships were converted from cargo ships. They are said to be battleships, but they cannot be rivals of professional battleships. As for the Shenyi-class destroyer, before the war broke out, they spent a huge amount of money to have it designed by Rendili Interstellar Power Company.
As for Rendili, they just took out the original upgrade plan for the Dreadnought-class heavy cruiser and modified it to become the Divine Will-class. This almost made the Trade Federation kneel down before taking it. arrive.
But in fact, the Shenyi-class destroyer is not a qualified battleship. Because although this kind of battleship is indeed very powerful, the ratio between its power and cost is extremely low. In other words, you spend more money, but what you get is a ship that is not much stronger than the Jaeger class. Battleship.
This is a typical way to fool the rich - giving you the most expensive everything, but not the best, which is not guaranteed.
The Interstellar Banking Association is even more miserable. They can't replace the Generosity-class communication frigate. It's not that they don't want to replace this kind of junk warship with extremely low combat effectiveness and high cost, but It's because they simply can't come up with a better warship design.
The reason why the Generosity class was so arrogant before the war was because the Chartered Interstellar Banking Association of the Galactic Republic owned this 825-meter large battleship. Compared with the small warships of other organizations and enterprises that are no more than 200 meters long, it is naturally a dimensionality reduction blow, but this cannot cover up the fact that the Fengyang class is garbage.
In the original plot, the richest organization in the galaxy, such as the Interstellar Banking Association, has been unable to come up with any new type of warship to replace the Generosity class, which can only be said to be a tragedy.
This shows how precious the complete battleship design is. This is really something you can't buy with money.
And now, Darth Malthael actually came up with the design of such a battleship, which is a super battleship with a height of more than 5,000 meters!
Knowledge is power, and at this moment, it is most vividly demonstrated.
It is precisely this that completely calms everyone present. These big guys who can shake the galaxy with just a stomp of their feet, now look at Darth Malthael and the roar of the scale sign in the middle. Their eyes have completely changed. Changed!
That is a kind of crazy worship and fanaticism!
Darth Malthael wants this effect! This is much better than directly selling these technologies with a clear price tag! He doesn’t sell it, he gives it away! No, it’s not a gift, it’s a gift!
What is given away is technology, but what is received is something more precious...
Faith. Darth Malthael's choice to hand over the Infinity-class super aircraft carrier to the Trade Alliance was also well thought out.
First of all, only the wealthy Trade Alliance has the ability to build a costly and luxurious warship like the Endless. If this thing were left to the current Fourth Civilization to build, it would go bankrupt in a matter of minutes.
Secondly, what is most lacking in the Trade Federation and even the entire Independent System Confederation is the projection of army power, especially when the fleets of both sides are in balance, or even when one's own side is at a disadvantage, forcibly breaking through outer space. Defense, the ability to send marines into the planet's atmosphere.
And this is what the Endless-class super aircraft carrier is best at.
It should be pointed out that before this, the fleet of the Confederation of Independent Systems actually played this role not with the Rookery Hook-class battleship, but with the Diamond-class transport cruiser.
The Rookery Hook-class battleship is too bulky. To break through the atmospheric defenses, ground troops must be transferred through the C-9979 transport ship, which is extremely inefficient.
Although the Diamond class can play the role of direct penetration, it is too small after all. It is only a fan-shaped hull with a diameter of about 200 meters, and its carrying capacity is limited.
Because of these shortcomings, in the later stages of the Clone Wars in the original plot, you rarely see the Rookery Hook-class battleships and Diamond-class transport cruisers on the battlefield.
The former is because they have no longer adapted to the needs of war, and the latter is because basically all of them have been shot down and there are not many left.
In the later stages of the war, the Confederacy of Independent Systems could only rely more on the Shenyi-class destroyers to carry transport cabins to deliver army troops. However, due to the cost and limited transportation capacity of the Shenyi-class destroyers, the Confederacy’s army forces were increasingly They were retreating steadily in front of numerous clone armies.
Therefore, the Endless-class super aircraft carrier is just a timely help!
The last reason is that this super aircraft carrier is exaggerated and shocking enough. If we just come up with designs such as the more cost-effective Orion-class assault aircraft carrier, it will not have the effect of shocking everyone present.
Darth Malthael knows very well that although several people here have terrible resources, whether it is Tuunbaq Tula, Newt Gunray, or Thorn Hill , in fact, they are all timid and cowardly people.
Among them, maybe Thunback-Tula will explode if you push her too hard, and the other two will scare them so much that they might actually shrink into their turtle shells. Therefore, he also needs to build a strong self-confidence for them, a self-confidence that is enough to counter the fear brought by Darth Sidious.
And this confidence is the 5694.2-meter super aircraft carrier of the Endless class!
Only in this way will these cowards have the courage to confront the Galactic Republic and Darth Sidious!
