1639.Third Battle of the Modell Sector (3)

"Separatists's interstellar base has begun to descend! It has entered planet-synchronous orbit!" The adjutant walked over quickly and said to the commander-in-chief, Major General Cassio-Tagge.

"Very good! Let Acclamator-class assault ship come up immediately!! Then notify all warships to bomb Planetary Shield with all their strength!" Cassio-Tagge said loudly with a wave of his hand.

"What about the Separatists battleship?" the adjutant asked.

"Leave their warships to the fighter formations to deal with! In addition, all bomber squadrons will be mobilized to also participate in the bombing of Planetary Shield." Cassio-Tagge waved his hand.

His intention is very clear, that is to contain Duchy of Dawn's fleet through a fighter formation, and then concentrate all the heavy firepower on his side to destroy Annaj Planet's Planetary Shield in a short time and launch a landing.

Before starting the battle, two Dark Side strongmen, Sa Kuis and Jan Droga, also warned Cassio-Tagge that if they enter ground combat, Archangel of Death will be a greater threat. By then, it will be difficult for them to stop Archangel of Death.

At that time, the Army will have no choice but to seek its own blessings.

However, they still came up with a plan. As long as Archangel of Death appeared, they would immediately concentrate all long-range firepower for a saturation strike, and even use Orbital Bombardment, so there was still a good chance of stopping him.

This is enough for Cassio-Tagge who are now completely red-eyed!

He was afraid that there was no way to solve it, and if there was a way, no matter how low the odds were, that would be no problem! After launching this attack, and until now when Agonev-class star base was repelled, his fleet had lost more than 30 capital ships and more than 2,000 fighter jets, but he had no intention of stopping.

"Attack! Keep bombing! Throw them all out, including nuclear missiles!" Cassio-Tagge roared loudly.

Among Republic fleet, there are still some warships equipped with nuclear bombs, including Commander-class Dreadnought, Governor-class battleship and Prosecutor-class battlecruiser. These warships from the last era, oh no, they are old warships from the last era. Orbital Bombardment still uses nuclear missiles, so these warships are also equipped with nuclear bomb launchers.

When Galactic Republic launched Mandalorian Excision against Mandalore 740 years ago, it used nuclear bombs.

However, Galactic Republic does not pay much attention to the development of nuclear bombs. In the past, due to restrictions on Rusan Reforms, the development of nuclear bombs, weapons used in Orbital Bombardment, was expressly prohibited. So it is the same nuclear bomb, but the nuclear bomb used by Fourth Civilization for Orbital Bombardment is much more advanced.

The Fourth Civilization nuclear bomb has strengthened the explosion coverage area. For ground targets, it uses a wide range of flames and shock waves as the main means of killing, while for hidden targets, it uses neutron jets as the means of killing. The two methods are combined in one nuclear bomb, which is about killing efficiency.

Those huge and heavy warships began to move forward, then opened their vertical missile launchers, and powerful nuclear missiles were launched one after another. Planetary Shield also began to light up with huge fireballs caused by nuclear bomb explosions.

At the same time, at the command center at the core of Agonev-class star base.

"Long Serpent battleship was severely damaged! The fighter formation immediately covered and retreated!"

"G-9 District 9 domain shield is overloaded! Contact the ground Engineering Department immediately!"

"Star Base 7 Reactor is on fire! Where is the backup damage control?... No! That's the engine there! Don't let the B-1 robot damage control pass!"

"The ground control station has an urgent call! The Planetary Shield capacitor in the G-9 District 9 domain exploded! It can no longer withstand it!"

"We still need at least four squadrons of Wraith fighter! We can't let Galactic Republic continue to attack our Calamity-class battlecruiser!"

In the command center, countless staff and staff are constantly busy, providing support and command for this chaotic battlefield.

Volgograd-Kanidi stood next to the holographic combat star map, checking the battlefield situation on the star map while giving command to the battle situation conveyed to him.

After layers of processing and resolution, what can be conveyed to him are the highest-level operational decisions.

He flipped through the densely packed files on the personal terminal in his hand, then clicked on one of them and said, "No... let the Calamity-class formation hold on a little longer! Without the fire cover of Particle Beam Lance, the Galactic Republic warships will bomb more unscrupulously. Send three more squadrons of Wraith fighter from the interstellar base!"

"Yes!" The adjutant immediately stood at attention, saluted, and began to convey the order.

He looked at the file again, raised his head and asked T-series tactical robot next to him, "How many Hyena-class Droid Bombers do we have?"

There are also many T-series tactical robots in Fourth Civilization's army. It's just that unlike Confederacy of Independent Systems, these T-series tactical robot are rarely responsible for decision-making on the battlefield, and generally just assist Commander in handling some problems. For example, for this type of information involving detailed data, it is naturally much better to ask tactical robots than humans.

"There are a total of 39 Hyena bomber." The T-series tactical robot next to him said in a straight tone.

"Use them intensively to bomb the opponent's Governor-class battleship! Try to sink it!" Volgograd-Kanidi looked at the holographic combat star map and stamped hard on the icon of one of the 4,000-meter-long large warships that was approaching Annaj Planet and was constantly launching nuclear bombs.

"Roger!" T-series tactical robot responded immediately, and then issued combat instructions to the Hyena-class Droid Bombers formation.

In an invisible Hangar Platform, the electronic eyes of 39 Hyena-class Droid Bombers immediately lit up with scarlet light. They began to stand up, using their deformable wings as four legs and began to crawl towards the hangar launch channel.

At the same time, there were more than ten Vulture droid fighters in the hangar, which were also activated at the same time, preparing to take off to cover the bombers' actions.

Hyena-class Droid Bombers and Fourth Civilization Navy were not very popular at first, thinking that they had overlapping roles with Viking fighter. However, in constant actual combat, it was discovered that the basic shape of this bomber is similar to that of the Vulture droid fighter, but it is larger and has a length of 12.48 meters. Therefore, its firepower is also extremely fierce. It can be said to be a complete battleship killer!

And compared to Viking fighter, which also takes on air combat missions, Hyena-class Droid Bombers is more pure. Therefore, Fourth Civilization introduced the production license of Hyena-class Droid Bombers and has begun to produce this bomber on its own.

Because of this, the research and development of other drone models of Fourth Civilization is more inclined to air superiority drones. For example, Acolyte drone, Swarm Drones, F-99 Wombat drone, etc.

This bomber detachment suddenly took off from the Hangar Platform, which had deployed its cloaking device. It broke in from the side and rear of the Republic fleet without warning, and approached the unfortunate Governor-class battleship!
