In addition to those command communication equipment, the Rhino command vehicle named Ulan Huda is also equipped with a silent transmission beacon, which can provide extremely precise coordinate locking for any transmission troops while the signal is concealed, making deployment more efficient.
Security, there is even a cracking engine used to crack the enemy's communications and transmission decoders, and the ability to collect vital signs data through the battle monk's power armor, which can help the commander of the strike force better understand his
The status of the battle monk.
Such a complex vehicle naturally requires more professional personnel to operate it. In addition to a servitor driver, each vehicle also has two weapons operating servitors, a data priest, and two company command team members——
They are the chief and deputy tactical officers of the command vehicle. They are responsible for tracking and processing the real-time dynamics of the enemy and ourselves on the battlefield and providing data intelligence to frontline commanders. In addition, they need to be equipped with a technical sergeant to better use the complex equipment of the command vehicle.
In other words, a command vehicle requires at least 2 veterans, 1 technical sergeant and 1 technical priest to fully function. The labor cost is obviously extremely high, but it is all worth it.
Because multiple command vehicles can connect all frontline troops in series to form a highly unified combat network.
Soshyan is very envious of the incredibly efficient battlefield command and coordination "equipment" of Ada Prophet. Humans do not have this ability, so they should make the chain of command as tight as possible and strive to cover every combat unit first.
, that’s why he requested the deployment of five Ulan Huda Rhino command vehicles at the front.
Generally speaking, a battle group usually only has 1-2 such command vehicles that embody a large amount of advanced communication and data technology, because the large amount of cutting-edge precision equipment brings extremely high costs, although it itself has almost no combat effectiveness.
, its value is twelve times that of a conventional Rhino personnel carrier. At the same time, its ultra-high value and extremely fragile body make its deployment very risky. Many battle groups, especially ship-based battle groups, simply cannot bear this cost.
and risk.
The advantages brought by the efficient data link were quickly realized. The broken tactical team detected the enemy's deployment in time through the data link with the sky flight formation, and quickly organized a new attack on the enemy's weak defense nodes.
offensive.
The Thunder Eagle quickly transported each team from its original position to the offensive area through rapid take-off and landing, and quickly formed a company command network. Then, under the cover of armor and low-altitude firepower, it quickly broke through the enemy's defense, occupied the key node, and blocked the enemy.
The transportation lines of troops and ammunition are followed by the infantry squad quickly deploying a large number of automatic weapon turrets and sentinel armed servitors in the occupied area through airdrop pods, forming a primary defensive stronghold.
After about twenty minutes of defense deployment, the Thunder Eagle detachment was dispatched again, and dispersed the concentrated infantry in the form of tactical squads to key points deeper behind the enemy. Together with the fast-moving ground armor, they quickly formed a new attack on the enemy.
Break through, use points to lead to areas, and nip the enemy's defense forces in the bud before they are organized.
After the joint firepower attack from the air and ground armored assault groups, the enemy's first-line defense system was basically paralyzed.
Only one of the enemy's key material and ammunition storage points was discovered. The enemy had nearly thirty Chaos Space Marines, and they were organizing defensive forces to counterattack. Because they had very strong alloy underground bunkers, they were not destroyed by air strikes, so the advance force's attack was blocked.
At the critical moment, under the cover of the Storm Falcon, a Storm Bird roared close to the ground, hovered quickly, landed, and parked steadily behind the hill on the left side of the enemy's stronghold. 10 Dehgans using plasma weapons
The Terminator emerges from the Storm Bird and rushes into the enemy stronghold from the side with the help of fire cover. The tactical team follows up and quickly annihilates the remaining enemies.
After destroying the enemy, the commander of the Terminator team used the command terminal to summon the Storm Bird in the sky. Then the transport plane immediately descended, landed quickly, and reloaded the Terminator team into the cabin.
In the other direction, a ground armored assault group composed of speed attack boats and Rhino personnel carriers encountered stubborn resistance from the enemy in a certain valley, and the attack was blocked. After receiving the data, the command vehicle behind immediately mobilized the nearby Terminator team to support, and at the same time called
Two detachments of Storm Claws formed a ground strike formation and entered the battlefield to conduct a preemptive strike on the enemy.
During the strike, the Terminators landed behind the enemy's defenses. Under the attack from the front and back, the enemy's defenses quickly collapsed and were eliminated. Without waiting for all enemies to be annihilated, the Terminators boarded the transport plane again.
They are required to stay on the ground only during combat, and at other times they must maneuver in the air and wait for instructions to achieve maximum flexibility in deployment. The long battery life of the Storm Bird allows the entire Terminator team to remain active for 36 hours.
While maneuvering in the air, there are two pairs of spare Terminator armors and a set of equipment replacement equipment in the cabin, as well as a dozen standby servitors, so that if a Terminator armor in the team is damaged, parts can be replaced in time or directly replaced.
New armor.
This kind of Storm Bird, which is specially equipped with Terminators for mobile deployment and even provides repair and replacement functions, is also a brand-new tactical concept. The source of its guiding ideology is Soshyan's "all problems should be solved on the battlefield as much as possible". Of course, some people will think that
Putting a team of Terminators and two pairs of spare armors on a Stormbird is too risky, and the loss will be huge if it occurs.
But this is the role of Soshyan's emphasis on air control. As long as we hold air control, risks can be minimized.
Seeing that the offensive is going smoothly, the soldiers are gradually getting a feel for this new, more efficient joint operation, but Soshyan has no intention of making everyone so "comfortable"——
When he picked up the communicator, various "accidents" began to appear on the battlefield.
The first is to notify the enemy fleet that it is approaching the planet, and orbital support has to be terminated.
Soon, all kinds of outrageous things started to happen, such as——
Thirty hell flying dragons appeared on the battlefield, and air support was forced to stop...
A traitor appeared among the mortal servants of the Chapter. The field airfield in the rear was severely damaged and had to be relocated...
The enemy summoned a large number of demons, and three of the five command vehicles lost contact. The remaining two vehicles must perform all data link tasks. They have to determine which one should be prioritized among the massive combat data...
The armored force was blocked by the enemy's unplanned overload of armor, including renegade Baneblades and Knights...
The rear artillery position was shrouded in a strange blood mist and had to move several kilometers to re-deploy and support...
An unknown number of powerful wizards appeared on the enemy's front line, and the Dehgan Terminators quickly dispatched to deal with them. As a result, they got off the Storm Bird and ran into three Khorne demons...
Due to negligence in defense, the headquarters was attacked by the enemy's latent troops. Half of the commanders were dismissed and left the battle...
