Ke Qi Star's defenses were extraordinarily tight. There were twenty-five Space Fortresses of all sizes alone.
These twenty-five fortresses varied in strength. The five core large fortresses could withstand attacks from Division Level Ships.
Ke Qi was not a fortress-class Habitable Star; otherwise, even stronger fortresses could have been deployed.
Still, without seven or eight divisions, taking down these twenty-five fortresses would be basically impossible.
In fact, the Space Fortresses were only one link in Ke Qi Star's planetary defense network.
There were also Space-Based Weapons operating in satellite orbit, powerful Ground Fortresses, and corresponding starship squadrons.
Only through the cooperation of all these factors could a powerful planetary defense system be created. Missing any one piece would leave it imperfect.
Still, some people had doubts. "Space Fortresses... won't they be vulnerable to digital intrusion?"
The essence of a Space Fortress was a more powerful starship with stronger defenses, merely sacrificing mobility and flexibility.
What was lost was gained elsewhere. Once it became a near-planet base for a Habitable Star, the fortress only needed to guard its home. It did not need to wander through space.
Even so, a fortress required a powerful control system; otherwise, it could not unleash its full power.
That raised the question: were Space Fortresses afraid of artificial intelligence? But others had considered that long ago. "Space Fortresses are designed for planetary doomsday scenarios. Their chips aren't high-performance."
Military products prioritized durability. Space Fortresses were already tough as nails, and they were built for the harshest environments.
"Even if extreme cosmic radiation destroys every chip, most of the fortress's weapons can still be operated manually!"
So there was no need to dwell on the shortcomings of Space Fortresses. Their strengths were equally incomparable.
Unfortunately, the Evil Empire's warships had clearly accounted for the existence of
