756. Raid Kato-Neimoidia (Part 2)
It's difficult to measure how terrifying Plague's Hypermatter Railgun is with a diameter of 500 meters. The only thing that can be known is that all the battleship shields currently in service cannot withstand the full power of this Hypermatter Railgun shot.
Not even the previous Fang-class battleship.
What's more, Plague is still overloaded!
By over-running the engine and increasing the energy level in a short period of time, it is equivalent to obtaining greater power by overdrafting the life of the engine.
This increases the power of Plague main cannon by at least 50%!
Commander-class Dreadnought is 8,000 meters long. It is already a very exaggerated battleship, but after all, it is from the previous era. The entire battleship required more than 43,000 people to operate, which wasted a lot of space. Moreover, due to the background of Rusan Reforms at the time, all aspects of equipment could not be perfect.
And Ragnarok-class Titan warship, just the opposite!
As a dazzling beam of light shot directly at the side of the Commander-class Dreadnought, the battleship's shield was instantly broken, and the huge projectiles continued to punch a terrifying hole in the battleship!
At this time, the Commander-class Dreadnought was not completely defenseless. It was not directly scrapped like the previous flagship Golden Light. However, the projectile still punched a large hole in the middle of the battleship that was more than 800 meters deep and more than 600 meters in diameter.
At this time, the battleship still has not lost its ability to move, but most of the turrets have been silenced, the battleship's Gravity Generator has also been destroyed, and now the entire battleship is beginning to tilt.
There is no doubt that even if this battleship has not been scrapped, it has basically lost its combat capability.
As for Republic's 7th Fleet, they lost their flagship for the second time.
At the same time, Trade Federation Guardian Fleet was also firing on all cylinders, engaging in a fierce exchange of fire with 7th Fleet's battleship. Tens of thousands of Vulture droid fighter took off from the donut-shaped Luukri-Hok-class battleship and pounced on them viciously.
Not only that, mixed among these Vulture robots, there is also a fighter plane with a similar shape but larger and more ferocious looking!
This fighter is more than three times as long as the Vulture fighter, with a total length of 12.48 meters, and the same dish-shaped fuselage as the Vulture fighter also provides a larger volume.
Compared with the Vulture fighter, an ultra-light robot fighter that relies on quantity, this is a truly powerful weapon - Hyena-class Droid Bombers (Hyena-class bomber, ps: it doesn't sound good when translated as hyena).
As a new generation bomber jointly developed by Trade Federation and Technological Alliance, Hyena-class Droid Bombers has extremely powerful firepower, and inherits the consistent compactness and efficiency of robot fighters. Its combat effectiveness directly surpasses Galactic Republic and the current Y-wing bomber.
As for the extremely important Wealth World, Kato-Neimoidia, this new type of equipment will naturally be equipped as soon as possible.
After the Trade Federation defenders' fighter group broke into the battlefield, 7th Fleet, who once again lost command, almost immediately fell into chaos! And unlike last time, this time, they didn't have any time to reorganize their command system!
Almost every Galactic Republic fighter was entangled by several Vulture droid fighter, and then the Hyena-class Droid Bombers formation rushed directly against the close-in firepower of the battleship, launching deadly Proton Torpedo one after another.
At the same time, other battleships of Trade Federation Guardian Fleet also joined the battle group, exerting their powerful firepower.
In fact, the warships in Trade Federation's fleet are much more advanced than those of 7th Fleet. Deceiver-class destroyer is the latest type of warship, Generous-class frigate is more or less a large warship that can compete in battle, and Luukri-Hok-class battleship has also undergone many modern upgrades during the modification process.
But the reason why they did not dare to take any rash action before was because they did not want their precious Wealth World to be affected by the outbreak of fighting. On the other hand, there were giant warships such as the 8,000-meter Commander-class, the 4,000-meter Governor-class, and the 2,500-meter Prosecutor-class among the 7th Fleet.
However, these giant battleships are no longer a threat.
The emergence of Plague Titan warship made these giant battleships targets for Plague's 500-meter-caliber giant cannon.
Fired three times, killing two Commander-class Dreadnoughts and more than 1,000 fighter jets. Such terrifying firepower directly frightened the operators of Republic fleets.
The battle quickly developed out of control. 7th Fleet's warships were bumping around like headless flies, completely losing their ability to coordinate operations.
At the same time, Plague also stopped overloading the engine and did not continue to fire the main gun. Instead, it attacked with other weapons equipped on the battleship.
Even if the main gun is not used, the extremely powerful energy core of Plague can still exert terrifying firepower, and the rays emitted by those heavy X-ray turret are almost devastating.
Previously unable to severely damage Plague before the Trade Federation fleet took action, 7th Fleet also lost this opportunity forever.
And now, Plague is using that terrifying firepower to tell the Galactic Republic officers and soldiers of 7th Fleet what is the deterrent power that a truly giant ship should have!
In the constant battle, the Commander-class Dreadnought, which was hit in the middle by Plague, also suffered constant impacts. The Republic Army people on the battleship are undoubtedly brave. They control the hundreds of turrets to shoot at the target, but with almost no effect.
As the battle progressed, the big hole made by Plague main cannon began to be torn apart, getting bigger and bigger.
A Prosecutor-class battlecruiser flew over and tried to catch the fracture with a tractor beam to slow down the process, but in the end it was unable to do so. Commander-class Dreadnought is too huge and cannot be pulled by a 2,500-meter Prosecutor-class.
Finally, the Commander-class Dreadnought was completely broken into two pieces, completely turning into a huge space coffin.
This is the same fate as 7th Fleet.
In Republic Capital Coruscant, and Dawn Star Planet in Endor system, two voices came at the same time, one was an angry roar, and the other was a proud laugh.
The communication was connected, and Newt Gunray's cramped figure appeared in front of Tang Xiao. He said in a trembling voice, "I disobeyed Lord Sidious's order... He will kill me, he will definitely kill me!"
"He won't kill you, at least not now. Because if he kills you now, he won't get anything." Tang Xiao said with a smile.
However, now, his iconic smile seemed as terrifying to Newt Gunray as a demon.
