In the void, a beam of light passed by and hit the energy shield of the Snow Leopard-class battle cruiser.
Unlike the plasma cannon just now, the positron cannon is not an energy bomb, but a beam type, somewhat similar to a laser, but the killing principle is completely different from that of a laser.
Moreover, compared with the noise caused by the plasma cannon just now, the power is obviously much smaller, and it only slightly stirred up a wave of energy shield.
"Quickly, report the data!"
"Bai Lao, the target ship's energy shield integrity has been lost by 12%."
"12%? This is consistent with the results of the previous simulation. Although the power is much worse than the plasma cannon, it is already comparable to the power of the main gun of the current Snow Leopard-class battlecruiser!"
"Lao Bai, your secondary guns are the same as the main guns on my Ouranos. When will you upgrade my Ouranos?"
"You want to upgrade your broken ship? It's better to build a new one. Otherwise, the current generation of engines and weapons will not be suitable for installation even with the structure of your ship!"
"Besides, the Orca-class battleships are about to be fully commissioned. As a result, as the commander of the legion, you still drive a smaller battleship. Don't you lose your face?"
Well, Lin Fan was a little embarrassed when Bai Zixuan said it in a fuzzy tone.
Should I also buy a killer whale class? But isn’t this just like an ordinary battleship? It’s not classy at all!
"Let me tell you, boy Lin Fan, are you thinking that there is no better warship than the Orca class to serve as your flagship?"
Bai Zixuan saw through Lin Fan's little thoughts at a glance and cast a look of contempt.
"Uh! There's nothing we can do about it, there's nothing better!"
"Have you forgotten the Io Federation? I heard that they have an 8-million-ton heavy battleship, which is used as the flagship of each legion. Why don't you go to them to customize one?"
"Yes, why did I forget about those angels, but does the structure of the battleship they built meet our needs?"
"Are you stupid? You can't tell them the size and specifications of engines, energy devices, weapons, etc., and ask them to leave space in the initial design. You just need them to build a hull for you, and other equipment We’ll figure it out later!”
Bai Zixuan said to Lin Fan with some resentment.
He was obviously a better scientist than himself a few years ago, but how could he become stupid after fighting for a few years? No new technology has been developed in so many years, and he can't even figure out these basic problems!
If Lin Fan knew what Bai Zixuan was thinking now, he would definitely refute it.
Can you blame me for this? Ever since that damn system released the novice assessment tasks, it has completely entered a state of pretending to be dead, right
But after listening to Bai Zixuan's words, Lin Fan had other ideas. Since he could ask the Io Federation to customize a battleship, why couldn't he ask the Io Federation to make a killer whale-class battleship
You must know that the Io Federation is an old level 3 civilization, with a population dozens of times that of humans. If the warship productivity is fully activated, it is estimated to be at least 10 times that of humans.
The most important thing is that their shipbuilding craftsmanship is much better than that of humans. Lin Fan still remembers how beautiful those battleships of the Io Federation are!
Just follow the method Bai Zixuan said just now, let the Io Federation be responsible for the OEM ship body, and humans will be responsible for the later work of putting the equipment on the ship. This will definitely be much faster.
For example, if the two legions were to be completely refitted with killer whale-class battleships, 432,000 would be needed.
According to the current productivity of mankind, if 30,000 ships can be produced every year, it will take more than ten years to complete the replacement.
But if we find the Io Federation to manufacture them, humans can produce 90,000 ships on our own within three years, and at the same time let the Io Federation OEM the remaining 300,000 ships within three years.
Wouldn't it only take 3 years to fully staff the two human legions
Thinking of this, Lin Fan no longer cared about Bai Zixuan and ran out immediately. He wanted to go back and write this idea into a plan and submit it immediately!
Seeing Lin Fan turning around and leaving without saying a word, Bai Zixuan was so angry that his hair almost stood on end, while Liang Xue smiled bitterly and followed him.
That night, a three-year plan for the construction of 432,000 killer whale-class battleships was sent to Starfleet headquarters.
Sanders was shocked after seeing the plan and immediately sent it to President Lin Zhen.
Finally, in the middle of the night, an emergency meeting was held at the Presidential Palace.
At this time, it was already one o'clock in the morning, and Lin Zhen, Ed, Sanders and the other nine staff had all arrived.
In the conference room, everyone held the materials in their hands and read them carefully.
"I think this idea is very good and can completely solve our current problem of insufficient warship productivity!"
"That's right, and just letting the Io Federation manufacture the hull will not reveal our key technologies!"
"The most important thing is that this is cheaper than making it ourselves. The Io Federation will handle all the materials by itself. We only need to pay some energy shield devices and jump engines. The price we sell these things to the Io Federation is A hundred times the profit.”
"That's right, I think Admiral Lin Fan's plan can be even bolder. Let the Io Federation manufacture all 432,000 warships!"
"No, if you want to let the Io Federation do all the manufacturing, our own shipbuilding industry will be wasted. Admiral Lin Fan is not bold enough, but he is ensuring the development of our industrial system!"
"It turns out that I was negligent. Yes, it is still necessary to leave a batch of battleships to be produced by ourselves!"
…
In the conference room, a group of staff were talking to each other, but everyone unanimously agreed to the plan.
According to this plan, not only can a large number of warships be built quickly, but it can even cost 99% less than building it yourself. Where can I find such a good thing
You must know that the energy shields and jump engines currently sold to the Io Federation every year are sold at a hundred times the price. Even the price of such a device is enough for the Io Federation to build three killer whale-class ships. Body.
In other words, as long as you pay more than 100,000 sets of energy shields and jump engines, the Io Federation can OEM the hulls of more than 300,000 killer whale-class battleships for you, and you don’t need to provide the materials.
This is almost like robbery. The key is that they are willing and even count the money for you!
"Okay, since everyone has no objections, let's formulate a detailed plan immediately, and then Ed will be responsible for negotiating with Queen Elfi!"
Lin Zhen looked at the staff who gradually became quiet and spoke.
"Okay, once the details are finalized, I will immediately consult with Queen Elfi!"
There is another chapter today, and the author will try to finish it before 4 o'clock! !
