After driving away the officials who were in the way, Jiang Fei finally took over Planet Skoda. He then ordered the production of the original warships to be stopped and changed to the new blueprints.
In terms of weight loss, Jiang Fei only used the technology learned from the blueprints of the "players' warships" to modify the technology of the Trade Federation's warships and improve the performance of the warships. However, he did not make too many changes because the Trade Federation's warships were basically fixed. Using too much new technology would lead to incompatibility.
However, in order to enhance the combat ability of the Trade Federation's warships, Jiang Fei used the "players'" technology to add some new equipment to these warships. Although these equipment were not big, they greatly increased the power of these warships.
For example, the Trade Federation's most basic cobalt alloy corvettes. Jiang Fei used the "players'" technology to add an Antimatter Corrosion Cannon. When this cannon hit the enemy, it could burn the enemy's antimatter pool, causing great damage while also depleting the enemy's antimatter reserves.
Antimatter was still a new energy source that the major forces in the universe were currently researching. However, it had begun to be widely used in the "players'" warships. This new energy was very difficult to obtain. After it was used up, its recovery speed was extremely slow. Therefore, even the "players'" warships would be very cautious when using antimatter weapons. Therefore, the appearance of the Antimatter Corrosion Cannon would cause a terrifying blow to the "players'" warships in future battles.
In Jiang Fei's words, antimatter was equivalent to the "players'" warships' blue bars, and the Antimatter Corrosion Cannon was equivalent to a weaker version of Mana Burn. Although the effect of this thing was not particularly strong in a single shot, one should not forget that the cobalt alloy corvettes were the most basic warships of the Trade Federation. This thing was produced in large quantities. The antimatter burning effect caused by a round of volleys was enough to cause a heavy cruiser to suffer.
In addition to the Antimatter Corrosion Cannon, Jiang Fei also added cluster warheads to the Javelin class guided missile frigates. This allowed the missiles launched by the Javelin class guided missile frigates to split into multiple warheads to attack after approaching the target, reducing the probability of being intercepted.
Other than that, Jiang Fei had also brought a huge modification to the Grizzly Bear Heavy-Class Cruiser. The Annihilator Quantum Propulsion Engine allowed the Grizzly Bear Heavy-Class Cruiser to reach the target ship at sub-light speed in a short period of time. This was a qualitative improvement for the Grizzly Bear Heavy-Class Cruiser.
One had to know that the Trade Federation's Grizzly Bear heavy cruiser could be said to be a relatively weak type of heavy cruiser. The reason for this was that apart from its powerful armor, it had no other advantages at all. Compared to the energy beam weapons of the Jarvis Law Enforcement Cruiser of the Valsalrian Army, the automatic cannons of the Grizzly Bear were simply too weak!
Weaknesses such as short range and long flight time made the Grizzly Bear at a disadvantage when it came to long-range bombardment with other heavy cruisers. However, an old-fashioned, cheap weapon like the autocannon was not completely useless. Using depleted uranium as the warhead, the autocannon could effectively avoid the enemy's energy shield when firing at close range, causing a direct destructive blow.
However, the problem was that in the era of space wars, how many opportunities did one have to approach the enemy? Who would be willing to wait for you to get close to the enemy before exchanging fire?
Therefore, the Grizzly Bear had always been known as an excellent sandbag because other than its ability to take a beating, it had almost no other ability. When it fought with others, it was used as a kite. Other than being in front of the fleet and bearing the enemy's energy, it was not worthy of its identity as a heavy cruiser.
However, with the Annihilator Quantum Propulsion Engine, the Grizzly Bear could even turn the tables. With this sub-light speed propulsion engine, it could quickly rush to the side of the enemy ship. If it was close combat, the Grizzly Bear, with its thick skin and thick muscles, was not afraid of any enemy. Even if it was one against two Jarvis Law Enforcement Cruisers, the Grizzly Bear would dare to fight!
Of course, in addition to strengthening these Trade Federation ships, Jiang Fei also had to come up with something new. Otherwise, with the Trade Federation's original broken ships, they really could not fight against the fleets of the "players".
The Boorish Ultra-light Corvette was one of them. This thing was smaller than a Cobalt Light Corvette. It was not even larger than a patrol ship. The entire ship could be controlled by only ten crew members. It was simply too cheap.
Although this ship was small, it was very powerful. In addition to being able to easily attack aircraft and resist the threat of drones brought by aircraft carriers, it could also fire a kind of armor corrosion warhead. This thing could easily weaken the armor strength of local ships, bringing a qualitative improvement to the firepower of friendly forces.
However, because the ship was small, dying in one shot was inevitable. Fortunately, this ship was cheap and had a small crew. Moreover, it did not require too much complicated control technology. It could be piloted by Clone Warriors. Therefore, it was a good consumable in space wars.
In addition to this small ship, Jiang Fei's most important thing was to bring an auxiliary cruiser to the Trade Federation — the Ogre Class Torpedo Cruiser. This ship had weak defense. Although it could not be killed in one shot, its defense was completely inferior to that of a cruiser.
Moreover, because it used a harpoon class cruise missile, its attack speed was slow and the attack frequency was low. Moreover, this kind of missile did not fly very fast, so it could not hit the enemy ships that moved very fast. Therefore, it was quite useless in a ship-to-ship battle.
However, because the range of the harpoon class cruise missile was extremely long, even exceeding the range of light weapons, it was extremely powerful. It was even several times more powerful than ordinary nuclear bombs. Therefore, this thing was similar to a demolition machine. Although it could not hit the enemy's spaceship, it had extraordinary lethality to the enemy's base and orbital defense weapons.
As the space fortress and orbital defense weapons could not move, harpoon class cruise missiles could naturally hit them accurately. Moreover, because of its great power and long range, the Ogre Class Torpedo Cruiser could launch attacks outside the enemy's range. As long as there was a fleet beside them to protect them, they would not have to lose a single soldier to destroy the base. Therefore, the awkward situation of losing a lot of soldiers in a battle between warships and fortresses was avoided.
With the help of these technologies, the Trade Federation's fleet was no longer afraid of the Valsalrian army's warships. However, they were still no match for the "players". The reason was very simple — capital ships!
Before seeing a capital ship, Jiang Fei would never believe that a warship could affect the entire course of a battle. However, after seeing the two "player capital ships", the Transcendent Class Battlecruiser and the Radiant Class Battleship, Jiang Fei had to believe that capital ships did indeed have the ability to turn the tide of a battle. Therefore, in order to fight against the "player" fleet, he also used this technology to develop a capital ship for the Trade Federation!
