Chapter 2059 Blue Comet (Part 2)

After a short battle, only one of the 9 Hellblades escaped. Lachem Squadron suffered no losses. Then they launched an attack on a Red Pirate frigate. The ship also carried three Chaos Dragons.

Kano piloted the fighter plane back and forth between the dense firepower network, and the plasma shield could absorb the small firepower that was occasionally missed.

He aimed at an evil demon engine and used a laser cannon to pierce it from head to tail. Compared to Voss Lightning, the Chaos Dragon flew too slowly and was unable to evade pursuit

The Chaos Flying Dragon suddenly broke into two pieces, floating powerlessly in the void.

At this time, the void shield of the Red Corsair frigate had already been overloaded by the attack of the Starhawk bombers. Squadron Rahm seized the opportunity and concentrated firepower to fire the Hell Strike missile towards the bridge of the frigate, leaving behind a piece of burning steel. Ruins and a battleship losing power and floating in the void.

But the battle is far from over. The Red Pirate Assault Fleet in this direction dispatched twelve warships, including 7 Faithful-class predators, 3 Heretic-class frigates, 1 Blasphemer-class destroyer and 1 A destruction-class cruiser.

The Destroyer-class cruiser is a relatively rare aircraft carrier among Chaos battleships. It can simultaneously launch four squadrons of a total of 48 carrier-based aircraft, and support it with long-range light lance firepower. It can also be used in the hangar. Carrying four additional squadrons as reserve combat power, although their role is not obvious in the main decisive battle, the effect is very significant in this kind of rapid raid.

The corresponding Imperial Navy has only 4 frigates, 3 destroyers and 3 Defiant-class light cruisers.

The Defiant-class is a variant of the Dutiful-class light cruiser. It is mainly used for escort and support. It is the smallest first-class aircraft carrier type battleship in the Empire and the most common first-class light cruiser in the Imperial escort fleet.

If the Lunar class is the backbone of the Imperial Navy, then the three types of light cruisers, the Defiant class, the Duty class and the Endurance class, are the skin of the Imperial Navy, providing the first layer of protection for the Empire's routes and territories.

In terms of the number of fleets, the Imperial Fleet is at a disadvantage. In terms of aviation, the Defiant-class can only carry 2 combat squadrons. The three ships combined are not as large as a Destruction-class cruiser, so the number of aviation is also weak. For the Red Pirates, although the Moon of Destruction is not far away, because the planet is seizing time to build a planet-level engine, they have not had time to build a large aviation center and can only rely on themselves.

The empire has a large number of protective fleets, but in order to guard against possible enemies in all directions, they are deployed more dispersedly. Moreover, the red pirates are also very smart and do not concentrate their forces to launch a surprise attack in one direction, because it will definitely not be concealed. For the reconnaissance of the super-large void scanning array deployed on the Moon of Destruction, because their attack method is also like a wolf pack, launching raids from different directions at the same time period, mobilizing the strength of the imperial guard fleet, and searching for them through consumption and pulling. At the breakthrough point, as long as a small fleet breaks through the defense, it can immediately cause a huge blow to the construction site of Destruction Moon.

So there will be no reinforcements for the battle in this direction for the time being, and they can only rely on themselves. Fortunately, the empire's aviation troops have firm belief and fearless courage.

While covering the bombers' attack on the enemy warships, they also have to defend themselves against the opponent's bombers attacking their own warships.

In order to create a lighter and faster Lightning fighter, the Thunder heavy fighter jets constantly circled the enemy's Hellblade escort formation. The Lightning cluster took advantage of the gap to pass through the enemy fighter formation and rush towards the Omen bomber formation.

As a super-heavy bomber, the Bad Omen does not fly very fast. They rely on a large and sturdy fuselage and unique subspace rift technology to launch attacks.

The Red Corsairs only have two bomber squadrons, but six Omen super-heavy bombers are enough to destroy a frigate in one attack. In fact, they have destroyed an Imperial frigate and a destroyer. Two squadrons of Lightning fighters pounced on the bombers like wolves. Their artillery fire fell on these flying monsters, but most of it was absorbed by the void shield. At the same time, as they approached these bombers, subspace lightning began to jump in the void. Some lightning bolts were shattered into pieces before they could react.

The Omen Super Heavy Bomber is usually piloted by four stationary servitors, but in some cases it can be flown by one or two Chaos Zealots or skilled Chaos Space Marines The pilot can also be possessed by demons and turn into a terrifying demon engine.

The Omen bombers of these two squadrons are complete Daemon Engines, and they can use the evil warp power to fight back against fighters trying to harm them.

However, the Lightning fighters continued to fight, and some even did not hesitate to launch a suicidal collision attack.

An Evil Omen was unable to dodge, and one wing was broken off by lightning. Although the latter also disintegrated during the roll, the Demon Engine also lost its balance and began to break away from the formation.

So the Thunderbolt type followed closely behind the Lightning type, preparing to rush into the bomber group to kill, but another formation of 24 Hellblades and 12 Hellclaws came galloping over.

The sudden appearance of a group of enemy aircraft forced the Thunder fighters to scatter to respond to the enemy to prevent them from being beaten all at once.

Soon, there was a sea of ​​​​fire in the void, but the Omen bomber was able to escape from the melee and began to run towards a Defiant-class light cruiser.

However, at this time, twelve blue comets crashed into the battlefield at extremely fast speeds, shuttling between the fighting groups of aircraft, exceeding all the fighters on the scene.

A Hellclaw appeared in Kano's field of vision. It was chasing a HNA Lightning fighter. From its trajectory, the Space Marines judged that it was a fighter piloted by a fallen servitor. They immediately circled around and shot from the side. , with a burst of laser, the enemy plane was blown up, and the cockpit glass was scattered like diamonds.

Kano did not appreciate the moment when his prey died. His fighter plane dodged left and right, and a Hell Blade team stared at his team.

It may sound easy to control a fighter plane with your mind, but on a battlefield full of firepower, this is actually a difficult and burdensome task.

The alarm sounded, and a scorching laser passed over the cabin. Kano nimbly dived down to avoid it, while his wingman also flew upwards according to the instructions.

With the help of its excellent engine, the heroic posture of the Vos Strike Lightning moving up and down, left and right is more like that of an acrobat with neat movements. The enemy is following closely behind, but obviously their speed cannot keep up with such a fighter. Even if They are demon engines modified by the power of subspace, and the pilots or demons inside have no idea how outstanding performance and combat effectiveness a Voss Lightning can show when driven by an experienced pilot.
