Except for the four additional structures and ring links, the entire battleship looks like it has the consistent smooth style of today's zaft battleships. It is integrated and full of arcs. Compared with the edges and corners of the United Conventional battleships, It's obviously more of a work of art.
What's more important is that Xiao Ran also saw a total of eight meteor equipment fixed on both sides of the four additional structures, which looked interesting.
Patrick saw Xiao Ran observing the battleship, and nodded to a middle-aged man wearing a white coat on one side. The latter walked up to a few people and introduced: "Mr. Xiao Ran, let me introduce this battleship to you." , the battleship has a total length of 753 meters. It is the largest conventional battleship we have manufactured so far. It adopts many new technologies and new ideas. In accordance with your request, Mr. Xiao Ran, the capacity of the Gnaku and the battleship have been increased. speed."
"You can see now that the four rotating additional structures are the four attached ganakus. These four additional structures are 350 meters long and are equivalent to the size of a battleship. In fact, these four additional structures are This additional structure itself is an accessory warship that can move independently from the main warship, and has all the functions of a conventional warship."
"So this warship is actually not just one ship, but a new warship composed of five ships."
Hearing this, Xiao Ran's brows jumped twice involuntarily, and he looked at the middle-aged man who was introducing the battleship to himself in surprise. Judging from the name tag hanging on the other person's chest, this man seemed to be the one for this project. the first person in charge.
"A combined battleship composed of five battleships?" Xiao Ran was a little surprised, and also deeply surprised by the understanding of this strange or novel structure.
"Yes." The middle-aged man nodded in a neither humble nor overbearing manner, and explained: "Because of the way this ship is used, the number of airframes it carries, and the number of teams, everyone in our department feels that the new warship must be updated. There are many conditions to meet the use needs of special forces, and because the capacity of the gnaku itself is large and it has to accommodate a special machine body over fifty meters long, the general warship structure cannot meet such requirements at all."
"So when we first started designing, we planned a model with one ganaku as the main one and multiple ganakus as auxiliary ones. But since we have auxiliary ganakus, we thought we might as well use these ganakus as well. , anyway, because the Gnaku must be large, the battleship must also be large enough, and gradually it became what it is now after many designs.”
"And because of new technologies, especially vps armor, new energy engines, new propulsion systems and a series of other technologies, we can successfully build such a warship."
Xiao Ran raised his hand to signal the middle-aged man to continue speaking. Although he couldn't see Xiao Ran's expression under the mask, his gesture simply meant that he wanted to continue his performance.
Seemingly approved by Xiao Ran, the middle-aged man became more and more enthusiastic as he spoke: "This battleship can fully meet your needs, Mr. Xiao Ran, in terms of Gnaku, and in terms of speed, we have even improved the original MS's Glory." The transmitter system has been improved for use on battleships. Technically, it only needs to amplify the radiance transmitter system used by MS, and the combined propulsion of the four auxiliary battleships will definitely satisfy Mr. Xiao Ran."
"What's more important is that this warship all uses a mirage system, which is enough to allow such a huge warship to sail silently."
"As for the auxiliary warships, because the main body of the warship itself does not have the ability to navigate within the atmosphere in terms of shape and function, after all, we cannot expect this fish-shaped structure to be parked on the ground, but the design of the four auxiliary warships can enable these auxiliary warships to enter independently Atmosphere, just to return from the atmosphere, you have to add auxiliary devices.”
"The main body of the battleship is a large circular space. Ordinary MSs can accommodate more than forty units. The attached battleship can accommodate six conventional MSs."
"However, in terms of armament, it is much inferior compared to the size of the battleship. The main battleship is equipped with two positron cannons, eight large and small beam cannons, missile launch pods, automatic defense turrets, etc., which are all conventional configurations."
"Small attached battleships are not equipped with positron cannons. Large battleships are equipped with two beam cannons and four small attached beam cannons. They have missile launch pods and automatic defense turrets. At the same time, the meteor equipment at the front can also be used as armament. It is a pity that this battleship The cost, manpower consumption and resource consumption are too huge, making conventional configuration almost impossible.”
Xiao Ran was impressed by the brainpower of this battleship building department. They actually put the Glory Carrier on the battleship. It was not an innovation, but it was definitely an idea. You must know that none of the battleships in the Burning Legion had done this. Simply because there is no such need, it is almost impossible to use it.
One's pursuit of speed is useless. If the distance is far away, you can jump directly. Moreover, the battleships of the Burning Legion are warships used between galaxies. The speed increases quickly. Maybe it will be even faster with the addition of the Radiant Deliverer system. But after all, there is still a threshold similar to a limit for conventional advancement and movement. It is impossible for one more radiance carrier system to cross the past. If the energy consumption is forcibly exceeded, the energy consumption will multiply in a multi-power trend. In summary, the gain outweighs the loss, but for For the battleships in this world, the addition of the Radiant Carrier seems to be quite good.
As for the armament, the middle-aged man may feel that a battleship of more than 700 meters is equivalent to a small aircraft carrier of space battleships in this world, but it can only come with so much firepower but uses most of the space to carry the body, so he feels a little disappointed. , but Xiao Ran also heard from this guy's words that the person in charge of Emotion was actually a supporter of the heavy ship and artillery stream.
The other party said that there were not many weapons, but it seemed to Xiao Ran that there were already a lot of weapons. The number of weapons combined with the main body and attachments was already a lot, okay? What about the twenty or thirty beam cannons and positron cannons? But it is estimated that if all these weapons are to be used, the energy consumption will be quite high.
Xiao Ran nodded and smiled slightly: "Very good, very good. The battleship you designed and built is very novel and very thoughtful. I am very satisfied. By the way, what is the name of this battleship?"
The middle-aged man shook his head and said: "The battleship only has a manufacturing code and has not yet been given an official name. The name of the ship is waiting for you, Mr. Xiao Ran."
Xiao Ran was silent for a moment, and then laughed: "I think you should name this battleship. After all, this is a battleship that you put a lot of effort into creating. Why don't you name this battleship?"
The middle-aged man's eyes lit up when he heard Xiao Ran's words, but he did not forget to glance at Patrick for advice. After Patrick nodded, the middle-aged man immediately said: "Apocalypse! It represents the revelation and reminder to mankind, let us unite. The four attached battleships are the four horsemen of the apocalypse, bringing some destruction to the evil ones who spy on us!"
Xiao Ran nodded and glanced at the middle-aged man with a half-smile: "The name is very good, let's call it this name, Apocalypse, not bad, Destruction is not bad, aliens and... Union, good."
