You Can Only Pray for Your Own Good Fortune!
The three core mega-ships that Katerina saw.
These are respectively the Dragon Country's "Wudu", "Qiangui", and "Sanjiangyuan"!
Her guess was absolutely right; although these three ships resembled aircraft carriers, they were not aircraft carriers.
Instead, it is an amphibious warship, a top-of-the-line piece of equipment specifically designed for transferring Army.
Its full name is Amphibious Assault Ship!
This is also a new type of weapon that has not appeared in any of the Instance on Azure Star.
This type of ship has a similar appearance to an aircraft carrier, but its interior is completely different.
In fact, from a purely technical point of view, the technological content of Amphibious Assault Ships is far inferior to that of aircraft carriers.
However, in many cases, war is not solely determined by technological sophistication, but rather by the most suitable combat conditions.
If an aircraft carrier is the dominant force at sea, its primary purpose being to seize control of the sea and Air Superiority, and it is also a top-tier naval weapon with land-attack capabilities.
Amphibious Assault Ships are giant transport ships specifically designed for amphibious landings.
Meanwhile, helicopters were also parked on the deck, providing a certain level of air support capability.
Dragon Country is a nation with highly collaborative land, sea, and air forces!
To deal with a country like India, amphibious assault ships are necessary to deploy Army forces for deep warfare.
In fact, Katerina was unaware that the three amphibious assault ships she was seeing were not amphibious ships in the traditional sense.
Instead, it's the top-of-the-line amphibious ship that Lin Ye designed specifically for the Dragon Country — the 076 Amphibious Assault Ship!
These amphibious ships are larger than most aircraft carriers, but are more maneuverable.
Equipped with electromagnetic catapults, it can carry a wider variety of aircraft.
This even includes Dragon Country's top fighter jet models, such as the J-35 Stealth Carrier-Based Aircraft and the J-15 Single-Seat Twin-Engine Carrier-Based Fighter.
In addition, it is equipped with a large number of drones, which can be deployed for drone operations at any time as needed.
Its air combat capabilities are in no way inferior to those of an aircraft carrier.
However, compared to an aircraft carrier, it has an additional transportation function.
Should we ambush them?
A thought suddenly popped into Katerina's mind.
If she were to send troops now and destroy these three amphibious assault ships, it would be tantamount to directly annihilating the Land Warfare forces that Dragon Country had dispatched to India Country.
But she quickly dismissed this crazy idea.
Dragon Country is not stupid; each fleet contains a large number of destroyers and frigates.
If her fleet were to launch an attack on Dragon Country right now, these Type 055 Destroyers would destroy her carrier fleet immediately.
Standing on the deck, I watched the last amphibious assault ship group sail past the waters surrounding Big Macaque Country.
Katerina finally breathed a long sigh of relief.
Beads of sweat glistened on her delicate cheeks.
Horrible!
That's terrifying!
If even these large Military Ordnance can be transported at will, then for the Dragon Country, there is little difference between fighting on its own soil and fighting abroad.
In her mind, being able to transport Army soldiers by ship was already quite an achievement...
The Dragon Country, however, intends to use ships to transport its entire Army there!
In fact, the reason why her uncle Fulangche devised the tactic of using India Country as bait was to make the Dragon Country's forces fight on foreign soil, thereby cutting off the cooperation between the Dragon Country's various armies.
But now it seems that these were all just naive fantasies.
The deployment of troops in the Dragon Country was far more complex than they had imagined!
Just as Katerina was in shock, a slight whistling sound suddenly came from high above.
She quickly looked up and saw a swarm of Dragon Country aircraft flying overhead.
Even from just this brief glimpse, Katerina was awestruck.
She had never seen such a beautiful plane on Azure Star.
The J-2 fighter jet has a long and slender body, and the design of the all-moving tail and canards makes the streamlined shape of the fuselage very beautiful, making it look like a work of art from a distance.
Especially the aircraft's exhaust nozzles, which appear to be spewing out endless energy.
In the blink of an eye, the massive fleet of aircraft vanished without a trace high in the sky.
At this moment, none of the radar detection equipment on the aircraft carrier detected any trace of these aircraft!
"Stealth... stealth fighter jet?"
"It seems the Dragon Country's Air Force has also been deployed."
This stealth fighter, like the destroyer, is something Katerina least wants to see.
Because of its unique stealth design, even the most advanced aircraft carriers would find it difficult to lock onto this thing.
If these top-tier aircraft were to encounter their own fleet, they would be at a significant disadvantage.
Katerina now wants to communicate with her uncle on a public channel.
Tell them everything you saw.
His uncle could never have imagined that what India Country would be facing next was an incredibly powerful combined land, sea, and air force!
If she is not mistaken, the restraining forces within India Country should soon be completely dismantled.
With carrier strike groups, Land Warfare, and Air Force support, a combined offensive would be difficult for Challengers to withstand.
India Country will soon be directly occupied, becoming the Dragon Country's foothold in the outer borders.
At that time, the main forces of the Challengers's Army and Air Force, still in Nepal, will face a situation of being attacked from both sides.
"No... we mustn't send a message, we absolutely mustn't send a message."
After calming down a bit, Katerina chose to remain silent.
Because the Type 815A Electronic Reconnaissance Ship is still in international waters Big Macaque Country.
Once it is detected that she is transmitting information, the Dragon Country forces will definitely treat her as an enemy force as well.
Then an even larger force from the Dragon Country will sweep in.
Her plan to launch a surprise attack on Qiong Island will also be completely thwarted.
In that case, the chances of clearing the Instance will be even lower.
The battle hadn't even begun, yet this single encounter already exuded an indescribable sense of oppression.
"Our allies in India... you can only pray for your own good fortune." Katerina pursed her lips and shook her head bitterly.
The sea breeze was quite strong at the moment, blowing her red hair into disarray, and her face felt slightly sore.
Her first choice was to issue orders to the Challengers in her fleet immediately.
"Attention everyone, we are immediately heading to the high seas Big Macaque Country Territory."
"Once we're in position, don't discuss any combat matters. All we need to do is wait..."
"Everyone must be prepared; we may launch an attack on the Dragon Country at any time!"
Katerina could no longer wait for her uncle Fulangche, to give her the order to attack; doing so would definitely delay the opportunity to strike.
Now, she has no choice but to find opportunities on her own.
