Chapter 255 The arms race that just started

255, the arms race that just started

The Acclamator-class assault landing ship, the full name is 'Acclamator-class trans-galactic military transport ship'. This is a classic design and construction by Rossana Heavy Engineering Company, a subsidiary of Quat Power Dockyard.

Battleship.

This kind of warship is 752 meters in total, 460 meters wide, and 200 meters high. It has a flat and wide triangular shape. A smaller bridge is located behind the warship. It has no portholes for protection reasons and relies entirely on advanced navigation.

systems and sensors to drive.

The Cheer-class assault landing ship is equipped with very powerful firepower, including 12 quad-mounted turbolaser turrets, 4 sets of proton torpedo launchers, and 24 sets of point defense turrets. And most of the turrets are arranged on the sides of the hull. This design

Mainly to facilitate orbital bombing.

At the same time, in order to take into account the issue of landing operations, the Cheer-class assault landing ship is equipped with very thick armor, especially the armor on the bottom of the battleship is even stronger. This armor uses the most advanced technology - direct dispersion of neutrons

Compressed into the armor material, the neutron density of the armor is greatly increased, allowing this armor to even directly withstand the bombardment of proton torpedoes.

Such firepower and protection can be said to be very good even for a battleship. Moreover, each cheerer-class assault landing ship can carry 80 soldiers, 80 fighter jets and 84 tanks and armored vehicles, in addition to 320 armed vehicles.

Hoverbikes as a reconnaissance force.

Moreover, the powerful engines of the spacecraft determine that they can easily enter and exit the planet's atmosphere for combat.

In other words, one Cheer-class assault landing ship can transport an entire legion of soldiers, and can directly provide air cover and even orbital bombing support for the legion.

There is no doubt that the appearance of the Cheer-class assault landing ship definitely violates the Rusan reform agreement! And this spacecraft has now entered the testing stage. In other words, Kuat Power Shipyard has already put the ship into operation a few years ago.

Lusang’s reform was regarded as waste paper.

Now Kuat Power Shipyard has announced this battleship, and the meaning is very clear. Anyway, regardless of whether the Galactic Republic places an order or not, I have already built the thing and put it here. Not only that, it is also very powerful and easy to use. You can buy it or not.

I count on you.

In response to the Cheer-class assault landing ship, the Trade Federation announced two plans. The first is to transform its own giant cargo ship. The transformed cargo ship will be able to be used as a large warship.

Their second plan is to cooperate with Rendili Interstellar Power Company to develop a new generation of battleships. This kind of battleship is developed and improved on the basis of the Dreadnought-class heavy cruiser to adapt to modern combat needs. The size of the battleship is scheduled

will be over 1000 meters.

This project is called Project Providence. The Quarren people, who are very developed in the shipbuilding industry, also participated in this project and established a new company - the Free Duck Volunteer Engineering Group.

Several other corporate giants have also announced their own warship manufacturing plans.

But what people didn’t expect was that the fastest one here was actually the fourth group!

Just the day after Kuat Power Shipyard announced that the Cheer-class assault landing ship had entered the testing phase and that the agreement on Rusan's reform was in vain, the Fourth Group released a brand new warship——

Revelation-class light cruiser!

This kind of battleship is 344 meters long and is a technology in "Homeland". It was originally classified as a destroyer, but according to the classification rules of the Fourth Civilization, it was classified as a light cruiser.

The battleship is equipped with 2 twin-mounted large plasma cannons and 2 twin-mounted large turbolaser cannons. While it has good firepower, it also maintains incredibly fast and flexible maneuverability!

The speed and steering of the Apocalypse-class light cruiser can even be compared with the 108-meter-long Revenge-class destroyer!

Now this kind of high-mobility and high-firepower warship has almost become the symbol of the Fourth Group's warships. Whether they are Revenge-class destroyers or cobalt alloy-class heavy frigates, and now coupled with the Apocalypse-class light cruisers, they are very maneuverable.

good.

This is because the positioning of these warships is very accurate. They do not pay attention to one ship doing everything. What they need is to do their job well and efficiently.

For example, the Apocalypse-class light cruiser's very clear combat target is the opponent's capital ship, and only the capital ship. Therefore, they are fast, flexible, and have strong firepower, and the spacecraft does not even have a point defense turret.

In the future combat planning of the four civilizations, the task of air defense will be completed by other warships or fighter jets.

There is no doubt that according to the provisions of the Rusan reform treaty, the Apocalypse-class light cruiser also exceeds the standard. Although the violation is not as blatant as the Cheer-class assault landing ship, it is more practical.

Because there is no doubt that a spaceship like the Cheer-class assault landing ship cannot be supplied to any organization except the Republic's military. It is also impossible for the Republic to allow other organizations to own such a ship and launch a launch on a planet.

The powerful warships attacking fell into the hands of other organizations.

But the Apocalypse-class light cruiser is different. With a price tag of 3.5 million credits, many people can afford this ship.

And more importantly, the Fourth Group directly announced that the production line of the Apocalypse-class light cruiser has now begun, and reservations can be accepted, and the construction of the first battleship will begin within one year!

All the organizations in the galaxy, large and small, suddenly realized - it turns out there are people who can move faster than Quat Power Dockyard!

Although the performance of the Apocalypse-class light cruiser is much inferior to the 325-meter-long Aquitens-class light cruiser, the most classic battleship of its class, in comparison, the Apocalypse-class is better than the Aquitens-class

It came out 10 years earlier! It started to occupy the light cruiser market first.

As a result, even industrial giants like Quarter Power Shipyard could not help but start to take a serious look at the small industrial enterprise of the Fourth Group.

Various industrial enterprises and business giants came on stage. Although their positions were all opposite, their actions were surprisingly consistent. They tore up the Lusang reform treaty and threw it to the ground over and over again.

Step on.

The behavior of these companies, for Finis Valoran, the Speaker of the Galactic Parliament who had previously hoped to negotiate terms for these business giants by lifting treaty restrictions, this step is clearly his butt.

Face!

Do you think we will be grateful for your proposal? I'm sorry, it's just a matter of our words to throw this agreement out and feed it to the dogs!
