Chapter 2562 King Kong Super Armory Ship!
When Li Yao arrived in the Empire, he had a deep understanding of the types of major warships on which the Empire relied to dominate the Star Sea. He knew that two or three hundred years ago, the Imperial Army had had a brief period of "cannon giant naval revival”.
Originally, in today's increasingly developed crystal armor design and giant divine soldier repair technology, solo combat capabilities are becoming stronger and warships are increasingly inclined to combine fire output platforms with integrated supply platforms, rather than blade opposing leading soldiers.
A hundred or more masters, armed to the teeth and bursting into an enemy starship, could cost billions or even tens of billions of starships, and even if they can't destroy each other's starships, they will lose up to a hundred or so masters - many of them will be able to defeat each other before they die.
Under such a cost-effective disadvantage, spending a lot of money on building larger starships is clearly not cost-effective - it would be better to devote resources to building armored squadrons, as well as to repairing and replicating giant warriors.
However, the technology of Crystal Armor and Giant Divine Soldiers is evolving, and the firepower output, spiritual shield and unmanned operation technology of the Starship are constantly evolving. The "Cannon Giant Ship" has always been the dream of the military. Finally, it has been proposed - that when Crystal Brain and Spiritual Grid technology develops to the extreme, combat puppets and drones of all forms and remotely pilotely piloted cosmic mines can converge into a flood wave, and with enough cannons, all enemies, including the most powerful Crystal Armor and Giant Divine Soldiers, can be destroyed!
“The Giant Divine Soldier is not invincible. As long as there are enough battle puppets and drones, the firepower output by the ship's guns is strong enough to form a continuous and airtight fire network, it can defeat the Giant Divine Soldier!
“If you can't beat it, then there aren't enough battle puppets and turrets, and the fire grid isn't dense enough. If you can stack 100,000 turrets on a starship, what enemy won't destroy it? ”
This is what some cannon giants said at the time.
And not only did they say that they did decades of theoretical calculations and tests in the empire's most authoritative military laboratories, but they also proved their point in countless virtual battlefield tests - equipped with hundreds of thousands of psychic puppets and drones and carrying at least 10,000 heavy guns of 'super arsenals' - that they did beat the gray face of ordinary giant gods, even by raising the virtual index of these giant gods to the level of manipulation by the old gods, it would be difficult to break through the 'super arsenal' interception network.
As a result, the imperial military must not be discouraged.
After all, the core cockpit of the Giant Divine Soldier, the R&D technology of the "Spiritual Palace”, is not yet mastered by the Empire. Even if they can imitate and assemble the hands and feet of the Giant Divine Soldier and the weapon set, once the "Spiritual Palace” is blown up, the Giant Divine Soldier is completely obsolete.
The war between the Empire and the Alliance does not know how long it will last. If it is to last another millennium, the Imperial Giant Divine Soldier will die one less, and the Alliance, which has a great deal of flood inheritance, clearly possesses a superior skill in repair and imitation of the Giant Divine Soldier than the Empire.
It would be very embarrassing if, at the end of the spell, the Empire's Giant Divine Soldiers were depleted, while the Alliance still had some Giant Divine Soldiers.
It was this concern, and the “perfect performance” of the laboratory virtual war, that prompted the Imperial Army to launch the super arsenal ship construction program, the new super warship, known as the "Vajra”!
The size, space and firepower of the King Kong Super Armory are more than ten times the size of the Empire's largest arsenal ship ever built, in fact it is more like a combination of an arsenal ship and an integrated supply ship and even a starry fortress.
In its original design approach, the military stuffed a brain into every Vajra super arsenal ship with at least 30,000 turrets of all types, hundreds of state-of-the-art array fire-controlled crystal brains, and more than 500,000 battle puppets and drones, making them the "perfect battleship, the ultimate battleship to end all wars” bragging to the Senate!
Is the actual combat power of the Vajra Super Armory as divine as the designers and contractors brag about it?
This question is bound to remain an unsolved mystery.
Perhaps, assuming that these Ultra-Armory ships can be built to the highest standards, they can indeed sweep thousands of armies, wipe out giant warriors and end all wars.
Until then, however, it ended in the empire's finances.
The whole process of building the Vajra Super Armory is a very old-fashioned and sad story.
Perhaps the idea of "fire supremacy, drone invincibility” is correct, but the idea of the designer is too advanced and ambitious. The designer greatly overestimated the speed of development of the imperial crystal brain level and underestimated the technical difficulty of gathering tens of thousands of turrets together. Or, in order for the Senate to approve the plan for the construction of the supership as soon as possible, from the designer to the largest arms contractors in the empire, to stakeholders within the Senate, showed a strong spirit of mending optimism, ignoring the "small difficulties” and throwing a budget proposal that is never cheap, but bites the teeth and can form a guarantee of combat power and crucible iron in up to 20 years.
At the time, the Senate agreed to the plan, and a total of sixteen "King Kong Super Armory Ships” were being built in the dock at the same time, for a hundred years.
During this period, the natural and man-made disasters caused by various technical difficulties will not be mentioned. The upgrade of the crystal brain and battle puppet technology has repeatedly pushed back the original design. The original plan and budget plan have long been thrown into the corner of the scrap paper basket. The new construction costs are higher than one at a time. By the end, the construction cost of each King Kong super arsenal has reached more than twenty times the original budget!
Forgiveness is the real human empire. How can the Senate aspire to the birth of a supership? In the face of such a budget and the distant and indefinite completion time, it will collapse.
“The Vajra Super Armory is the most powerful doomsday warship ever, but it's on the Alliance's side! It's just lying in the dock, destroying the whole empire! ”
Many Imperial senators roared at the table.
But apart from roaring, they can't do anything about it. We already have astronomical digital resources in the program, and we don't have to sell 16 unfinished King Kong super arsenals as scrap iron now, do we?
Besides, fat water does not flow out of human fields, and the resources invested in astronomical digits do not disappear in vain, flow around, or do they not flow into the hands of stakeholders large and small?
Even these mustache and table roaring seniors don't necessarily benefit from it in the dark!
Thus, the construction plan of the King Kong Super Armory Ship has become an endless black hole, dragging the Imperial Army down for a hundred years - the Alliance can take advantage of the blackwind fleet and occupy the entire five heavy industrial worlds of the Empire, it is hard to say that it has nothing to do with the weakening of the plan, even if the post-war economic crisis has erupted so badly, it has a small credit to the King Kong Super Armory Ship!
Until the war broke out when the Alliance invaded the Black Wind Five, the imperial parties could not endure endless delays. The relevant contractors also seemed to feel that many more people were about to lose their minds and that sixteen King Kong super arsenals were finally in the military.
However, because of the fierce fighting on the front line and the serious lack of a budget, the final construction of the sixteen Congolese super arsenals has not been completed, equivalent to a lack of congenital "premature babies", as the designers and arms contractors have argued - if these sixteen super warships are unable to exercise their theoretical extreme combat power, it is not their fault, but the question of time and funding, and if they are given another thirty or fifty years, and two to three times as much money, the Congolese super super arsenals will surely blow up all the giant warriors!
Even the designers and builders are so undergassed that the performance of these 16 big, unparalleled "premature babies” is conceivable.
On the real battlefield, they completely lost the halo that wiped out the virtual battlefield and destroyed everything, but exposed their clumsy and fragile vulnerabilities, and because the cost was too high, the families of the four electorate emperors could not allow these super arsenals to enter the fiercest battlefield. After only two of them were seriously injured by the Alliance, the remaining 14 super arsenals fled back to their home port.
The King Kong super arsenal ship completely turned into a joke. In the next hundred years, the Empire's "cannon giant ship" disappeared and no new superships were refined. The daily maintenance costs of the 16 "premature King Kong” alone are astronomical figures. How can they be dragged into the dock to complete the real construction?
So, a hundred years later, they are still a premature infant with only 30 percent fighting power, abandoned by the four most elite superior fleets of the Emperor Hou family, and assigned to the subprime fleet, with them as their core to create the "Eight Kingdoms", which was thrown into the battlefield to annihilate the revolutionaries.
“I know the ratings of the King Kong Super Armory are not very high, but they are due to a number of factors, in fact, even the unfinished premature infants can only play 30 per cent of their battle power, and they can still frighten any enemy if they are determined to die. ”
Jinyu said bitterly, "Poor performance on the battlefield against the Alliance does not mean that they will show mercy to our frigate. You just tried your best to fool so many fairy repairers for the time being, but said that 10,000 ways, these 16 super Arsenal ships, the ‘Dinghai Needle’ of the Alliance of the Four Kingdoms, if you can't defeat them completely on the battlefield, nobody will easily fall back on us.
“So, 'Black Wind King Li Yao', how are you going to change the next trick, where exactly is your so-called Black Wind Fleet? ”
