An Unscientific Mechanic

"Speaking of which, we don't seem to have such a spectacular orbital defense facility on the planet..." Ian rubbed his chin. Whether the combat efficiency is high or not is one thing, this thing is cool...

This kind of large fixed fort as big as a mountain is simply too romantic, isn't it?

"...We didn't use this kind of large-scale electromagnetic battery as an orbital defense facility. Did you forget that our turbolaser cannon has a range of ten light seconds? Or did you forget that you forgot the Pandora galaxy Those Starkiller laser cannons that are bigger than the moon in this world?" Lyall sighed, sometimes this kind of thing is just as good as it is.

Especially in terms of equipment, I want to have what other people have. Sometimes I don’t care whether I need these things in my own equipment system. For example, I am now looking at the orbital defense facilities of the Atlantic Federation.

Ian thought about it and had to admit that this thing is really tasteless.

But for civilizations that have just stepped onto the stage of the universe and need to build orbital defenses, other than the relatively high cost of this thing, other needs are not high. After all, for conventional civilizations that have initially entered the universe, electromagnetic guns are mostly It has been put into use, or put into use. Even if it is not used, the technical threshold of the electromagnetic gun is very low, and this technology can be thoroughly understood in a short time.

Moreover, this super-large electromagnetic gun should be regarded as a strategic weapon.

After all, this thing is the same as a strategic missile (such as a ballistic missile or a missile for orbital defense). The projected warhead is large enough and the speed of the warhead is fast enough. It can hit space battleships in the sky and hit the ground on the ground.

Ian compiled a copy of the information on this thing and sent it to the technical department of the integration department to develop it as foreign trade equipment.

"However, how will the Federal Army deal with it...their fleet was severely beaten by the road-based orbital defense facilities..."

Now, the NASCAR-class orbital bomber fleet once divided its forces and fired at the Atlantic Federation's roadbed artillery. However, when it was found that the firepower projection density of less than 15 NASCAR-class ships could not suppress an orbital defense base, the Federal Army gave up. For the division of troops, choose a steady and steady approach.

The full-orbital bombing fleet focused its fire, pulled out one fort, and then focused on the second fort to fight.

Although the progress is not fast, the orbital defense facilities on the wall of Jericho have been completely eliminated.

The Federal Army fleet withstood the artillery fire of the orbital defense facilities and demolished the air defense facilities of the Jericho defense line.

And the Third Fleet of the Federal Army, equipped with neutron jammers, quickly dispatched from the lunar base and headed for low orbit over the North American continent. Prepare for a neutron jammer airdrop operation.

"...I really want to help them speed up." Ian felt so bored on the Enterprise that he wanted to roll over.

Although the giant electromagnetic guns used by the coalition's orbital defense are mighty and domineering, they can't stand it. In fact, these things are at least ten years ago.

After two hours of high-intensity work, such a huge turret had to enter the program of low-rate cyclic firing to cool down the gun body.

This made the evasion pressure of the federal fleet drop a lot.

Moreover, unlike the battle after the short-distance transition device was installed by the Consolidation Department, the transition speed of the Federal Army fleet, which can only use rocket engines to accelerate and decelerate, can be described as quite slow.

For example, when the orbital bombing fleet ended its orbital bombing of the Jericho defense line over Juárez and went to clear the orbital defense electromagnetic guns located in New Orleans, Miami, and Atlanta, it would take up to an hour. Otherwise, if the incident angle of the unpowered orbital bombing warhead is too small, the speed at the end of the warhead will be too small and it will be too easy to be intercepted.

It will take 35 hours for the lunar surface fleet to drive from the moon to carry out the neutron jammer airdrop plan.

"I can't help it. Didn't we live this kind of life when we drove Ptolemy to make troubles?" Lyle spread his hands. "There is only conventional navigation, and you have to crawl everywhere. In order to build a new solar furnace on Jupiter, didn't you have children on the way to Jupiter?"

"...That's right, it took me several years to go back and forth, it would be almost boring to death..."

"The Vesalius is shot and broke from the line."

"Virgil exploded and sank, MS team went to rescue the escape boat."

"USS Iwo Jima depleted of orbital bombs, withdraw from the front and go to resupply."

"..."

"What the hell is going on...Why did things develop to this point..." Kruse wiped the blood from his head, just now the Vesalius was hit by an anti-orbit missile, and he accidentally bumped into it It landed on the corner of a display screen on the bridge, and blood flowed all over the ground in an instant.

Kruse sat silently on the command seat, thinking. "How good the original script was. The blue universe intensified the conflict to the point of no return, until both sides lost restraint and threw weapons of mass destruction at each other to show friendship, and both sides died together."

"But what is this? After Blood Valentine, all kinds of nonsense talk involving adjusters disappeared almost overnight.

Instead, it has returned to the old era of national supremacy. Compared with the destruction of the family and the death of wives and children, "for the sake of a blue and clean universe?" Who cares about such things.

The world, almost overnight, went from a racial war between natural persons headed by the Atlantic Federation against adjusters, to an old-time national dispute, to a war between two camps, and to a war between those who were willing to abandon the old era. State forms, active integration, wars between countries that have established a unified global regime and those that are unwilling to abandon the existing regime. "

"In this way, what should I do with my plan to drag all mankind to death..."

"Tokes, the critical point of the reactor, exploded and sank."

The flash of the explosion outside the window lit up Cruze's face.

"Huh? This feeling..." Cruze looked up in a certain direction.

"Blue Delta found the Seventh and Eighth Fleet of the United Army."

"Fleet Command received a call, the orbital bomber fleet continued its bombing operations, and the orbital bomber, which had run out of ammunition, went to resupply.

MS airborne troops continue to wait for orders, ready to open up the second battlefield.

All the other fleets went to meet the combined fleet, and there was no room for loss in the smashing of the walls of Jericho. "

"Addis, the ship will be handed over to you, get my GINN ready." Cruze floated out of the bridge.

"But Captain!"

"My specialty is mobile suit combat, not this kind of dawdling orbital bombing."

Moreover, does this kind of battle where you call "evasion" really need me to sit here?

Even the firing was sent by the fleet data link, and Addis didn't even have the chance to say "fire"...

"This feeling, is it you?" Kruse bandaged the wound on his head, put on his driving suit, and drove GINN into the formation of the Federal Army's carrier-based aircraft.
