405. War in the Desert (Part 2)
"The intelligence is confirmed! The other party has an airport northwest of Mos Eisley City! The distance should be between 200 kilometers and 500 kilometers." Four Z-95 starfighters were flying in the air, and the fighter pilot Hunter finally confirmed the information, "The other party should be escorted by fighter jets, which are special fighter jets in the atmosphere. This kind of aircraft must rely on the airport. As long as the airport is destroyed, everything will be solved."
"If there are escort fighters, we alone are not enough." Another pilot said.
"Don't worry, Lord Jabba spent a lot of money this time, how many people can Gaddula leave behind in Tatooine? Hahaha."
While they were chatting, they saw dozens of black spots swooping down in the sky. These were the bounty Hunter spacecraft that entered the Tatooine atmosphere from outer space.
A driver laughed and said, "Oh! Here it comes! It's less than expected, but it should be enough."
"Wait a minute! Something's wrong!" A pilot suddenly realized something was wrong, "One of the spaceships didn't turn on the shield!"
Sure enough, looking up, some spacecraft entering the atmosphere did not turn on the energy shield. This caused the hull of the spacecraft to rub violently with the air after entering the atmosphere, just like falling fireballs.
Only by opening the shield and entering the atmosphere can the hull of the spacecraft be prevented from being damaged. This is common sense!
And those people broke into the atmosphere without turning on their shields, which can only mean one thing - their shields were penetrated!
"Black Ship!! Black Ship is back! They are attacking us!!" A bounty Hunter spacecraft that landed from the sky yelled hastily.
"Black Ship? Is it the black Hammerhead-class cruiser?"
"Asshole! Isn't he with us?"
"They are simply crazy! Now the Blackheart Sam people are fighting with them in outer space! Those beast-like pilots are driving the black Wraith fighter..." The pilot of the other bounty Hunter spacecraft was still in shock.
A Z-95 fighter pilot calmed down and said loudly, "Okay! Don't talk about this! I know Blackheart Sam. He has 20 ships, which is enough to hold Black Ship! Now let's complete the task first and take down the base near Mos Eisley, and then we can go to Lord Jabba to get the bounty!"
"Okay... okay! This is the only way! Brothers, adjust your formation, let's go!"
"I... I have to go back. The shield of my spaceship is overloaded. I have to go to Basha to repair it."
"Are you stupid? The Basha spaceport in the north of the city was bombed yesterday!"
A total of more than 30 bounty Hunter spacecraft flew towards the northwest direction of Mos Eisley City. They turned on their detectors and searched every place where a base might exist.
But this is not an easy task. The largest area of a base is only one or two square kilometers at most. If it relies on terrain construction and some concealment measures, the area that can be observed may be even smaller. Coupled with the vast yellow sand on Tatooine, sandstorms are almost everywhere, which will affect the detection results of detectors and radars.
However, you must know that this is a desolate planet. Even if the direction and approximate distance can be determined, the area that needs to be searched is at least tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of square kilometers. In this way, finding it is simply like looking for a needle in a haystack.
The hard work paid off, and finally a spacecraft with a bounty of Hunter found a large amount of dust rising in one direction. "I found something! It's a convoy! It's confirmed to be the wheeled off-road vehicle that attacked us before!"
"Kill them! You can make a difference!" The Z-95 fighter pilot pushed the control stick suddenly, and the fighter suddenly accelerated and dived in that direction.
They pressed the button while they were still in the air, and Company One blaster beams were launched and exploded on the ground, but they did not hit the target.
Those Pathfinder-class assault vehicle convoys dispersed immediately, and the twin six-barreled electromagnetic machine guns on the vehicles fired wildly at the sky. However, not many bullets could hit, and even if they hit, they were blocked by Deflector Shield, with no effect.
At this time, several black spots appeared in the distance, and then the radar siren on the bounty Hunter's spaceship blared loudly, "Missiles are coming!!" a bounty Hunter shouted.
Dozens of missiles were launched from a distance, and radar also confirmed that 15 delta-shaped fighter jets in khaki paint were approaching. These fighter jets did not approach rashly, but continued to launch missiles from a distance, disrupting the formation of the bounty Hunter spacecraft.
boom!! A Pathfinder-class assault vehicle was destroyed during the bombing, debris flew everywhere, and one tire was even blown hundreds of meters into the air.
At this moment, radar signals came from the ground in the distance, and dozens of heat sources rose up. They were large surface-to-air missiles!
"Discovered the opponent's ground missile launch site! It's probably their base!" said a bountyman Hunter.
"Ignore those off-road vehicles! Attack their base!" The Z-95 fighter pilot made the decision immediately. Other bounty Hunter also agreed with this strategy, and they immediately turned around and flew towards the direction of the missile launch.
At the same time, dozens of missiles attacked, and the spaceship with the bounty Hunter quickly dispersed, and the laser turret on the spacecraft was fully fired to intercept the missiles.
boom! boom! boom!!! The downed missiles and destroyed spaceships exploded into fireballs in the air. The red blaster beams and missile tail flames continued to streak through the air, forming streaks of hellish light.
Bounty Hunter soon discovered that the opponent's firepower was beyond imagination! After this wave of missile attacks, 15 khaki triangle-shaped fighter jets lingering in the distance fiercely pounced on the spacecraft with the bounty Hunter.
The opponent has obviously prepared a large number of missiles, and before attacking, there is always a wave of intensive missile attacks! Compared to the bounty Hunter who lives a tight life, this is just a waste of money! After getting closer, these fighter jets began to fire purple laser beams. Although the power was not as powerful as the blaster beam, it still posed a huge threat.
The formation of the bounty Hunter spacecraft suddenly fell into chaos, and those triangular-shaped fighters were fighters designed entirely according to the atmosphere Inner Rim environment. They were about 20 meters in length, very flexible, and extremely powerful, and could even compete with Z-95 fighters.
There is no doubt that this is a purely military fighter!!
The spaceship with the bounty Hunter relied on its numerical advantage and the solid Deflector Shield to keep flying in the direction of the ground missile launch. Finally, they saw it!
On the ground, a behemoth nearly 600 meters long was lying on the desert like a steel behemoth. On the back of this behemoth were three take-off and landing runways, and a triangular-shaped fighter jet could be seen taking off and landing on the runway.
"What is this? A moving airport?" The bounty Hunters were shocked.
"No matter what it is, this is Gaddula's base! This is what Lord Jabba is looking for! Kill it!"
Several bounty Hunters swooped down, but only then did they see clearly that there were more than a dozen Missile Turrets built around this huge Land Carrier! There are more than a dozen SCVs currently busy, and several new Missile Turrets are gradually taking shape!
The number of delta-shaped fighters is increasing, and the Missile Turret on the ground is also launching a large number of missiles! Hundreds of surface-to-air missiles soared into the sky, and together with those fighter jets, they formed a death trap!
boom! boom! boom! One after another, the bounty Hunter spacecraft was destroyed, and the burning wreckage fell to the ground. The ground was not idle either. The Land carrier hatch opened, revealing a huge internal space. More than a dozen Foreman-class rescue vehicles drove out to find the wreckage of the fallen spacecraft, and then used Disintegration Ray to recover all available materials. Except for the twisted corpse of the bounty Hunter, not even a screw was spared!
But the image of this huge Land carrier was also sent back. Hutt Gaddula-Besadi, during the period of time when it disappeared, actually built such a huge Land carrier?!
