935, strange salarian fleet
At the same time that the battle in the Eriadu system officially broke out, on April 19, Ron Schlien led the Republic fleet from the planet Aiatu 6 to attack the planet Tibrin and fight with the Salarians who were defending there.
A firefight broke out between the fleets.
The Salarian fleet is centered on three 1,049-meter Doomsday Arena-class battlecruisers, and is also equipped with five 296-meter-long Juggernaut-class drone carriers, meter-long Enforcer-class heavy destroyers, meter-long
Executioner-class heavy frigate.
The Salarians actually have their own battleships, but this part of the mothership database is incomplete and not complete at all (who said there are no detailed settings for these battleships in "Mass Effect"?). But in their case
After getting the complete battleship database technology of the Amarr Empire in "EVE" from Tang Xiao, they thought that this series of databases was very suitable for their taste, so they took the Amarr Empire's battleships as their own development direction.
The drones currently carried on these warships are all Vulture robot fighters widely used by the Confederation of Independent Systems. Anyway, this kind of robot fighter has good combat efficiency, and like the B-1 combat robot, it is completely mass-produced.
full.
You submit your order today, and quantities below 10,000 will arrive tomorrow.
Therefore, although the Salarians have completed research on the Acolyte I light drones that are part of the Ella Empire's technology, considering the convenience of supply, they still use a large number of Vulture robot fighters.
In this fleet, there are only a small number of Acolyte I light drones, and their main purpose is only to collect actual combat data.
In terms of size, the Salarian fleet is completely at a disadvantage against the 8 Jaeger-class battlecruisers and 2 Cheer-class assault landing ships.
But after the battle broke out between the two sides, the Republic's fleet suffered tremendously in front of this completely unfamiliar fleet!
The Salarians took off a large number of Vulture robot fighters and started a melee with the Republic's fighter group. Taking this opportunity, their fleet directly attacked the Republic fleet and started a close combat.
The Republic fleet quickly discovered something was wrong, because these warships they had never seen before were extremely fast, and in terms of sublight speed maneuverability, they could even compete with the warships of the Corellia Engineering Company, which was originally known for its maneuverability.
Compare!
And the three Doomsday Arena-class battlecruisers immediately locked onto a Jaeger-class battlecruiser after the battle began, and then irradiated it with a strange beam of light. The operators of these Jaeger-class battlecruisers immediately discovered that their battleship engines were
The energy output dropped by 30%!
Moreover, the firepower output of the opponent's three Doomsday Battlefield-class ships suddenly increased to a higher level! Only then did they realize that all the energy had been sucked away by the opponent's battleships!
This unprecedented warship made the Republic battleship commander panic for a while. He mobilized other warships to concentrate firepower on the three Doomsday Arena-class battlecruisers. However, the Doomsday Arena-class continued to absorb the energy of the three Jaeger-class battlecruisers to replenish it.
My own shield couldn't be chewed off for a while.
The other salarian warships rushed towards these three Jaeger-class battlecruisers that had their energy sucked!
The engine energy output has been sucked away by 30%. For a Jaeger-class battlecruiser that requires energy to supply deflector shields and turbolaser cannons, it is equivalent to a direct weakening of the battleship by 30%!
Not only is the deflector shield capacity lower, but the recirculation time is also much slower, and the firepower output of the turbolaser is also reduced.
These three weakened warships were besieged by the Salarian fleet, and soon they could no longer hold on and began to retreat.
But immediately, the Salarian fleet also launched a powerful electronic warfare offensive, using a particle jamming device that was extremely weird for the Republic to interfere with the sublight speed propellers of the Republic warships and reduce the speed of the Republic warships.
This series of actions put the Republic battleships in a dilemma. Fortunately, the firepower of the Salarian fleet was not too strong. Although the three Jaeger-class battlecruisers were overwhelmed, they still lacked enough firepower.
Firepower gives them a fatal blow.
Afterwards, during the constant exchange of fire, Jedi Master Ron Schlien was also surprised to find that the design ideas of these warships of the Salarians were completely different from those of the Republic.
After the deflector shields of these warships were broken, the armor of the warships actually showed extraordinary endurance!
Naturally, the Galactic Republic also has very in-depth research on battleship armor. For example, the Cheer-class assault landing ship uses atomic collapse technology including neutron star matter, which improves the anti-strike capability of the battleship armor to a terrifying level.
However, this kind of expensive armor cannot be equipped on every battleship, and this kind of armor still essentially increases the strength of the armor to resist attacks.
However, the armor of these white-backed and gold-rimmed battleships in the Salarian fleet was completely different. They actually detected energy reactions on the armor of these battleships!
The technicians who came with the fleet judged that this energy reaction is probably a technology added to the armor to artificially increase the strength of the armor. If the judgment is correct, it is a cheap and high-quality way.
In front of this fleet, which although not strong in firepower, was fast, had various weird technical means, and was extremely resistant to beatings, the Galactic Republic's fleet was actually completely helpless in a short period of time.
The two sides fought fiercely for more than 2 hours, with some minor losses to each other. The Republic battleship spent a lot of energy to rescue the three Chasseur-class battlecruisers that were locked by the Doomsday Arena-class, but all three battleships
It was hit hard, and the energy reserves directly hit the bottom!
Ron Schlien judged that if the number and size of the Salarian fleet were not too small, with the same size, the Republic's fleet would never be an opponent!
After thinking about it, Ron Schlien ordered an immediate landing operation on the planet Tibrin, and then put his own fleet into a defensive posture.
Two Cheer-class assault landing ships broke into the atmosphere of the Tibrin planet and launched a landing operation on the planet's capital.
The Tibrin planet is relatively backward and does not have enough orbital defense firepower to prevent the Cheer class from airborne operations directly on the capital.
The acting governor of the planet, Thora Balk, immediately organized the robot army and the native army of the Yinxi-Tibu people to advance towards the planet's capital and set up a defense line to resist the attack of the clone army.
But at this moment, the Salarian fleet suddenly turned around, began to dismantle the hyperspace blocker previously installed by the Republic fleet, and then turned back and rushed directly towards the rear of the Republic fleet, the planet Aiatu 6!
