528. Fight again Geonosis (Part 1)
At the same time, Geonosis, a tragic space battle has just begun.
The huge Galactic Republic fleet escaped from the hyperspace jump, and immediately had a fierce exchange of fire with the long-awaited Confederacy of Independent Systems fleet.
Republic fleet Because the warships were of different types and the levels of hyperspace engines were also different, the first to arrive on the battlefield were the 18 Dreadnought-class heavy cruiser. Among the flagships, Fleet Commander, Jedi Master Depa-Barris stood slightly tired in the center of the bridge, looking seriously at Confederacy of Independent Systems fleet, who was waiting in front.
Powerful blaster beams were continuously launched, passing around their battleship or directly hitting the shield, causing bursts of light. Due to the rapid steering of the battleship, the internal artificial gravity could not be adjusted enough to deflect, and it felt like the whole body was tilting.
She took a deep breath and said slowly, "This is not a simple battle... I felt death in the Force, countless deaths..."
"We feel it too, Master." Luna-Meng nodded and said, there was not much emotion on her peaceful expression.
"Hey, there are no immortals in a war. As long as Master Yoda can be rescued, then that's it!" Luna-Huan said from the side.
Depa-Barris looked back at her, Luna-Huan quickly covered his head and looked scared, "Ah, I mean... it means that if Master Yoda can be rescued, we can save more lives, right, right?"
Depa-Barris nodded slightly, turned around and said, "Get ready, lead the fighter squadron to set off, and buy time for the arrival of our follow-up fleet."
"Yes, Master." Luna-Meng put his hands on his lower abdomen, bent down and bowed, and said calmly.
Luna-Huan felt that he had escaped, and he playfully stuck out his tongue at his sister and made a face. Unexpectedly, a pen on the table next to her suddenly flew over out of thin air and hit her on the head with a snap. Luna-Huan Ying screamed, covered his head and ran away.
Opposite Republic fleet, 5 Deceiver-class destroyer, 20 Generous-class frigate, 5 Defiant-class light destroyer, and 20 Revenge-class light destroyer were arranged in a trapezoidal array, guarding the 3 Luukri-Hok-class battleship at the rear.
At this moment, these warships were firing on all cylinders, firing fiercely at the first batch of 18 Dreadnought-class heavy cruisers, firing countless lasers and blaster beams.
On the flagship ship Deceiver-class destroyer, a spider-like Hatchian with 6 arms was touching the limbs at the corner of his mouth with one hand, and holding a pointer in the other hand Knocking on his hand, "Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, judging from the formation of Galactic Republic, they still have follow-up battleships, and even the levels of hyperspace engines cannot be unified. They are very anxious... tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk."
Admiral of the Navy Trench, his original plan was to lead the fleet of the Corporate Alliance to attack Christophsis, but the battle situation of Geonosis was urgent, and he was transferred back to the defense by General Grievous.
"We should rush forward and use all our firepower to wipe out Republic fleet." T-series tactical robot, standing next to him, said in a straight electronic voice.
"No... tsk tsk tsk tsk. Take off, half of the fighter jets disrupt Dreadnought-class's formation, tsk tsk tsk tsk. If I remember correctly... Dreadnought-class heavy cruiser doesn't have much aircraft capacity." Trench shook the pointer in his hand and said.
Following his instructions, Confederacy of Independent Systems's warships opened their hangars one after another, and a large number of Vulture droid fighter took off densely, flying straight towards Republic fleet.
"Inform all ships to maintain and suppress fire, but no, leave the formation without permission... Tsk, tut, tut, tut." General Trench said.
"Aim at the target and fire." T-series tactical robot raised his hand and struck down.
"Roger Roger." The B-1 robot controlling the spacecraft immediately pressed the fire button. The twin-mounted Turbolaser cannon in front of the Deceiver-class destroyer instantly fired a dazzling beam of light, which hit the Dreadnought-class heavy cruiser in an instant. The shield suddenly rippled.
At the same time, the Vulture fighter group was already engaged in fire with Republic fleet. The 20 close-range laser cannons on Dreadnought-class heavy cruiser opened fire with all their strength, and countless small laser beams continued to flash through the space.
But there are too many Vulture droid fighter, and the fire control system of Dreadnought-class heavy cruiser cannot accurately aim and track the extremely fast and flexible robot fighter. These robot fighters continuously fired small Proton Torpedo and Concussion Missile. The Dreadnought-class heavy cruiser shield energy in the middle of the artillery battle was all concentrated in the front. In order to deal with the fighter attacks, these warships had to allocate energy to strengthen the defense in other directions of the ship.
Facing one thing and losing sight of the other, the shields of three Dreadnought-class heavy cruiser ships were immediately broken, their armors were bombarded continuously, and they began to turn and prepare to withdraw from the battle.
At the same time, Republic fleet's fighter finally took off!
Each Dreadnought-class heavy cruiser carries 12 fighter jets, which amounts to 216 fighter jets at full capacity, most of which are V-19 Torrent fighter.
However, no one noticed that among this group of fighter jets there was a unique fighter jet——
ARC-170 heavy fighter!
This is a new fighter aircraft jointly developed by Incom Corporation and a small engineering company called Subpro. It is a new generation of heavy multi-functional fighter aircraft used to replace the Z-95 Headhunter fighter aircraft in their production line. This kind of fighter has the same name as Incom Corporation - it will always be the best fighter.
The ARC-170 is currently undergoing final testing and test flights, and it is expected to begin large-scale equipment for Grand Army of the Republic in a few months.
However, this ARC-170 fighter is different from the standard model. This fighter has removed the two powerful laser cannons on the left and right wings, removed the rear turret, and replaced it with a more powerful engine and maneuverability.
The original three-seater fighter jet has now been reduced to a two-seater, and in the two cockpits, there is a girl in a red robe and a girl in a blue robe sitting respectively.
Republic fleet More than 200 fighter jets bravely rushed towards the terrifying fleet of thousands of Vulture droid fighter, and a fierce air battle began.
"Ah, sister, sister, it's started, it's started." Luna-Huan, who was sitting in the driver's seat, took a tactical eyepiece with a microphone and put it on his head casually, and said.
"I'm ready, Huan." Luna-Meng still looked as cold as ice. She was sitting in the co-pilot's seat, with the tactical goggles already meticulously put on her head.
"Hahahahaha!! Let these people experience our world!" Luna-Huan laughed loudly, but there was an unconventional arrogance in the laughter.
Didi didi!!
Almost at the same time, alarm signals came from both the Confederacy of Independent Systems battleship where General Trench was located and from the internal programs of every Vulture droid fighter that attacked!
Immediately afterwards, under the gaze of hundreds of thousands of eyes of the warship operators, pilots, and Commander on both sides, the number of fighter jets that Galactic Republic took off instantly turned into thousands!!
And every fighter jet was clearly recorded by the radar system!
Even the most powerful electronic systems believe that these fighter jets...
It's true! -
