1841. Noobs pecking at each other.
"Enemy aircraft confirmed! Aeon Rider 1 Aerospace Combat Jet, 340 in number! "
"Current combat distance, 1,700km!"
"All units spread out! Maintain a formation of three and prepare for battle!! "
"It's these guys! We've been waiting in space for so long for nothing! Kill them!!! " The Red Police's Aerospace Combat Jet unit roared angrily through the communication channel, and the pilots seemed to be full of confidence.
Their biggest advantage was the Breacher Aerospace Combat Jet, which was much more powerful than the Aeon Rider 1 Aerospace Combat Jet, and their backbone — — the Destiny Gundam!
Compared to the conical Aeon Rider 1 Aerospace Combat Jet, the Breacher was more like a complete Aerospace Combat Jet. The W-type body had more space to equip weapons, radar and fire control systems. The fully armed Breacher could carry two air-to-air missiles. Furthermore, there was a high-power laser cannon in the center of the fighter, with a maximum range of 300 kilometers. There was also a 30mm electromagnetic cannon installed on both sides, with a maximum muzzle velocity of 15 kilometers per second.
Moreover, the rocket/plasma hybrid engine also gave the Ripper a faster acceleration and a higher maximum speed. Although it was not as nimble as the Zeus Rider 1, which had several steering nozzles installed on its body, it still had a crushing advantage in terms of performance.
Coupled with the Destiny Gundam that had almost destroyed the Predator warship in the previous battle, the Guardian Empire's cosmic forces were no match for the Breacher!
"Enemy warship has been detected firing!!" A notification came through the communication channel. Indeed, the Predator warship could be seen opening several hatches and firing a large number of ion cannons! However, the density of the cannons fired this time could not be compared to when the warship was in perfect condition, and the speed of the ion cannons had decreased significantly.
"Firing speed of 100km/s! 120 in number! "All the Breacher Combat Jets activated evasive mode and began to dodge. Boom!! Boom!! Two combat jets could not dodge in time and were hit, instantly turning into fireballs under the powerful might of the ion cannons. The fireballs were extinguished in an instant, leaving behind countless molten metal fragments flying everywhere.
"All units, spread out! Cover me!! Your target is the enemy's Aerospace Combat Jet!! I'll take care of this warship!! " Leo roared loudly, and the Destiny Gundam sped up, taking the lead as it flew towards the battleship. Its speed had actually left the Destroyer far behind!
In the bridge of the Empire, Tang Yu sat quietly in the middle seat. This seat was the highest point of the bridge, and below it was the captain's seat. This was a common practice for space battleships. Because of the size of space battleships, they were often used as capital ships, and this most respected position was usually reserved for the commanding officer.
"So they're here … Hehe …" Tang Yu gave the order coldly. "Continue to fire! Prepare the shield system. We're going to force the Gundam into close combat! "
"Yes, sir!" The captain replied loudly and immediately issued an order, "Cannon Teams 3 and 7, open fire! Battery 1, begin charging. Aim and fire in the E9 direction in 10 seconds! "
"Report! The 1st Artillery Team had caught fire due to overheating after firing. The damage management team is currently repairing it! "The orderly reported loudly.
"Is it still too much …" The captain sighed softly. The Empire was not in a state where it could fight normally. In the previous battle, it had charged into the atmosphere at high speed, and even the Predator's battleship could not withstand such torment. That time, the weapon system on the battleship was almost paralyzed, and the shield system was almost scrapped. Less than 30% of the battleship's major modules could still function normally!
After that, they received a personal order from His Majesty the Emperor to prioritize repairing the outer armor and shield system of the battleship. The repair of the weapon system and propulsion system was delayed by a lot. But even under such circumstances, His Majesty the Emperor still personally rode the battleship into battle!
Under such circumstances, although he admired His Majesty's courage, it was definitely unwise for him to risk his life in such a dangerous situation. The captain glanced at Tang Yu discreetly, and thought to himself, If necessary, even if I have to sacrifice my own life, I have to push His Majesty into the escape pod! Even if I have to tie him up!
The Empire was still firing, the ion cannons continuously bombarding the Destiny Gundam! From this, one could see the terrifying power of the Predator's technology. They could actually increase the initial speed of the ion cannons to 100 kilometers per second, and if the weapon system was still functioning, the initial speed could even reach 500 kilometers per second! The effective range was more than 100,000 kilometers, and it would only stop firing due to the low temperature of space after flying for more than 300,000 kilometers.
In other words, the effective combat range of the Predator's space battleship was at least 50000 kilometers! Most of the time, they could even shoot at each other at a distance that was equivalent to standing on Earth and the other on the moon!
Compared to these numbers, the battle between the Eon Rider I battleship, which used a laser cannon with a maximum range of 200 kilometers, and the Crusher battleship, which used a laser cannon with a maximum range of 300 kilometers, could really be considered a fight between noobs!
However, this was only the power of the main cannons of the Predator battleship. To deal with small and agile targets like the space combat jets, they could only rely on large-scale weapons of mass destruction or close-range firepower. Otherwise, they could only rely on space combat jets. This was also why the Empire had been seriously injured by the Gundam and forced to flee. At that time, the Gundam had suddenly appeared, and the ill-trained crew did not notice it in advance. Their reactions were also very rusty, and they were unable to display the power of the Predator battleship at all.
But now, the situation was even worse. Under Tang Yu's firm command, all 340 Eon Rider I battleships pounced on the Crusher battleships. Both sides were engaged in a fierce battle, and the Empire was actually left to the side! From the looks of it, Tang Yu wanted to use the Empire to fight the Destiny Gundam one on one?!
But the Empire's weapon system was only 20% of normal! Without the cover of space combat jets, how could they fight the Gundam?
