Building warships severely tested a nation's overall industrial capacity. Obviously, the Africa Union lacked that kind of industrial capacity, while Wakanda was only highly advanced in agriculture.
But that was all right. The American Military had blundered and delivered four ships to them.
And with the Atlas Group backing their side, they had no shortage of high technology. Modifying and expanding the ships would be relatively simple.
A comprehensive scan could produce complete blueprints of the ships. Through analysis and covert support from the Secretary of State, Lier could quickly understand the ships' internal designs.
The workers and robots handled all the modifications to the power systems, with the entire process under Lier's Surveillance Camera.
The original engine rooms were expanded, and a miniature SCFR reactor took their place.
Unlike traditional ships, these vessels had to carry complex power-supply lines to provide power to Powered Armor and Exoskeletons, and the main guns had been replaced with experimental Semi-Ion cannons-
Basically, they were enlarged versions of Plasma Weapons.
Larger coils, longer rails, more heat-resistant and thicker armor plating, and more powerful motors.
When fired, they no longer launched plasma, but rather shells that were essentially solid. This should increase the shells' speed to several times the speed of sound.
Metal footsteps echoed through the ship as people bustled about, carrying out the final checks.
Most of the workers were local Black men, though just over a month ago, they had been pirates.
Sizzle-
Welding tools were mounted at the ends of the Exoskeleton's arms. The Skill Shard in the Brain-Computer Interface assisted in controlling the arms, making the welding steady.
Judging only by the finished weld, an ordinary person might have thought it was the work of a veteran with several years of welding experience. But in reality, he had still
