1150. Exclusion

[PS: My mistake, Imperial-class (Imperial-class) was indeed called Imperator-class or Imperator-class (Imperator-class) during the Galactic Republic period. I did vaguely remember this before, but I didn't see it when I read the entry yesterday. I thought it was a rumor among fans and it was not officially adopted. Then the more I thought about it today, the more I felt uncomfortable. When I went home and changed back to the English page, I discovered that there were indeed two different names. The translation also had to take the blame for this. Imperator was translated as emperor level. Then I glanced over and confused it with Imperial-class... The previous chapter has been changed.]

In this meeting of Republic Ship Supervision Committee, as always, Kuat Drive Yards and Corellia Engineering Company made a lot of money.

Kuat Drive Yards Needless to say, including various types of warships, land combat equipment, fighter jets and other military purchases, it has won orders of more than 300 billion yuan. Corellia Engineering Company also relied on the DP-20 gunboat, CR-series corvette, as well as a large number of small transport ships, fighter jets, airspeed aircraft and other various orders to win with quantity and win orders of more than 180 billion.

When it was Rendili StarDrive's turn, the attitude of the Ship Supervision Committee expert team became a little ambiguous. They began to hesitate, saying that further review was needed, and that the existing logistics of Victory-class Star Destroyer and Galactic Republic did not match. In short, they were looking for various excuses to delay.

Regarding the air battle in Ambria system, those on the committee also believed that only three Victory-class Star Destroyers participated in the battle, and there were insufficient data samples to prove that Victory-class could really compete with Behemoth-class. And the president also emphasized that no matter what, even if we take the battle situation of these three Victory-class as an example, the final result is still that these battleships were sunk, so nothing can be explained.

If it were before, Gali-Ulan would definitely get furious and get angry on the spot, but now he doesn't care anymore and is very calm. But he still put the combat data in front of him. According to the combat data, even if it is Behemoth-class battlecruiser's Yamato Cannon, it takes 4 to 5 rounds to sink a Victory-class Star Destroyer, while it only takes 2.2 rounds to sink a Hunter Class on average.

Yes, according to the results of Battle of the Ambria system, if the shield of Hunter Class is relatively intact, it can carry two to three rounds. If the shield has been consumed, the result is that one shot will break the shield and two rounds will lift it away. In other words, once Yamato Cannon hits the armor, it will be the result of one shot entering the soul.

Victory-class Star Destroyer also had their shields broken with one shot, but their armor and structure could withstand several more rounds. With such a survivability guarantee, they can fire at least dozens of more shots. After all, Yamato Cannon takes a long time to charge, and this time is enough for Victory-class to fire at least two or three salvos.

But even if such results are presented, Ship Supervision Committee's expert team is still vague, saying that as long as there are enough samples, Victory-class will definitely get a formal order.

In the end, they symbolically placed a military order for 20 ships to Victory-class.

20 ships?! How about calling such an order of 1.1 billion Delia?! On the one hand, there are insufficient combat data samples, and on the other hand, no orders are given. It is obvious that it is an endless loop. If you wait another year, Victory-class will be out of date and can be eliminated. It is justified and it will not get orders.

Anyway, it's up to you. Victory-class can't get orders. You Rendili can come up with Victory II-class. Then Victory II-class continues to get no orders. Is it possible that you still have the ability to develop Victory III-class? hehe!

Gali-Ulan looked at the faces of the experts and felt furious in his heart.

They take the benefits of Rendili, wear gorgeous clothes, eat rare delicacies, hold beautiful women in their arms, and promise everything, but when it comes to formal occasions, they all follow the official tone and go straight!

There is a limit to how much you can deceive others!!

After Rendili StarDrive's product review was completed and only a few orders of about 6 billion were obtained, Gali-Ulan stood up with a natural smile on his face.

He nodded to the chairman of the committee and said, "Victory-class Star Destroyer does have some flaws, but we have also made improvements. Victory II-class Star Destroyer has completed the preliminary design. It is expected that we will build five prototype ships in three months. We hope that the committee will review it again."

Gali-Ulan didn't pay attention. When the smiling expression on his face fell into the eyes of Chancellor of the Galactic Senate Sheev-Palpatine who was listening on the side, Palpatine suddenly burst into laughter!

This smile was a little ferocious, a little greedy, a little cruel, so much so that his eyes radiated a terrifying and fierce light!

The expression of horror disappeared in an instant. Palpatine looked at the other side and nodded to the chairman of the committee who cast a searching look.

President Ship Supervision Committee quickly agreed, "This is natural, this is natural! When the Victory II-class Star Destroyer prototype ship is completed, our committee will make an exception and hold another review meeting to review this new type of warship!"

"I'm looking forward to the meeting in three months." After Gali-Ulan finished speaking, he stood up and left the venue with a group of representatives from Rendili's major companies.

The meeting continued, but as the agenda of the three major industrial giants Galactic Republic ended, Sheev-Palpatine also showed little interest in the following meetings.

Because, he has discovered another interesting thing.

Back in the office, he pressed the button and called his Vice Chancellor, Mas-Amedda.

When the tall, blue-skinned Chagrian came to the office, he felt a cold and terrifying aura!

Mas-Amedda has been completely tamed by Sheev-Palpatine. He also knows something about the other side of Palpatine, and that dark side makes him even more frightened.

And this fear was also reflected on his face. He came to Palpatine's desk very carefully, put his hands on his chest and bowed deeply. Then, maintaining this posture, he whispered, "His Excellency the Chancellor, what are your orders?"

"Be prepared, Rendili, there is probably going to be chaos." Palpatine did not hide his gloom and terror in front of Mas-Amedda, he said with a sinister smile.

"Rendili StarDrive? How did they..." Mas-Amedda was shocked.

"Ah, there is no doubt that you will always be squeezed out and never get orders. If you don't want to go bankrupt, then you will naturally have to think of other ways." Palpatine said coldly.

"But... I have also read the minutes of the meeting just now. Rendili should have high hopes for their Victory II-class Star Destroyer. They believe that this Star Destroyer can replace the status of Hunter Class or even new type of Knight-class. In this case, they have no reason to betray..." Mas-Amedda frowned.

-

I would like to say something more about some of the controversies in the previous chapter. Willix-Blythex is officially set not to use computers, and all the parts that require computers in the process of designing the battleship were completed by his daughter. It's not that he doesn't use computers when doing design. He needs to use computers, but he doesn't use them himself. Do you understand?

Don't always hold on to things that don't use CAD in the interstellar era. There are always people like this. My father-in-law still uses a mobile phone with a digital display. Could it be that because he doesn't know how to use a smartphone, he has been granted human citizenship?

So you have to go to George-Lucas for this matter.

I've read more than a thousand chapters, but you still don't know what my style is? Would I be so careless and just talk nonsense without checking the information?
