I Woke Up Piloting the Strongest Starship, so I Became a Space Mercenary

The first day of testing the prototype finished without any problems. No, is there a problem? For the time being, it was successful. There is not much to say about the armed side of the prototype No. 7, Hammer Seven. There are four hard points where weapons can be mounted. Well, it is a reasonable number for a small battleship. As for the arrangement, it is gathered above the fuselage in the form of a front upper part and a central part upper part, and although the lower part of the fuselage becomes a blind spot, the thermal power can be concentrated while covering the upper part and the left and right from the front directly. Basically, I think that the point of setting the weapon hard point is whether there is a direction other than the front that can concentrate the firepower. For example, an aircraft with four hardpoints, one on each side, up, down, left, and right can only attack with a maximum of three turrets outside of the turret's range of motion. A turret will die if you are not in front of it. In that case, even if there is a blind spot in the lower part like a hammer seven, it is better to arrange the firepower if you keep catching the enemy from directly in front and upward. At least I. Some people may be more focused on eliminating blind spots than concentrating on fire, so I'm not saying that. You can't use it without an arm that keeps your target in one direction.

In. What is the problem?

"I guess the aircraft had the specs as designed!" "There is no problem with the software! The calculation of the weight and thrust balance is wrong, so there is only a time lag in the behavior! "Calculations are correct! It's the result of pilots making up for software deficiencies through experience!" "Software is perfect! Piloting the time lag from imbalance between weight and thrust balance Just supplemented with experience! The data proves it! "

As a result of the performance test, I succeeded in hitting the score as expected or higher than expected. Well, if the behavior only delays by one tempo, you can operate it one tempo earlier, and if you get used to a heavy and skidding aircraft, you can do interesting maneuvers so there is no problem for me. So after the performance test, my response was delayed by one tempo, so I compensated for it with my arm. He doesn't know if the cause is due to hardware or software, but he said that it would be good if this could be improved. The result is the fuss in front of you. The hardware technicians and the software technicians argue that they were out of harm, or that they were due to lack of coordination with each other. Well, it's not my job to mediate this dispute. My main role in this request is to act as a test pilot and state what I was piloting.

"I wasn't dissatisfied with the turning speed for the time being. The same tempo delay would be the same, but I think the turning speed and roll speed are fine. However, the heavier aircraft makes it impossible to move sharply. I think it is necessary to use a hit & away tactic that makes use of heavy armor, or a tactic that keeps the opponent in the attack range while “sliding” like I did.The hard point position is also concentrated on the upper side I don't think it's going to be an aircraft for experts. ''

Here are some additional comments to dwarf technicians who have not participated in the dispute. Because I can't be honest.

"I see ... for reference, can you ask me what an aircraft that is easy for mercenaries to handle?" "Of course, it's my idea, but ... In other words, it's better to have a responsive aircraft. Naturally, "Oh, maneuverability is important." "Next, the defense surface is substantial, but this is armored. I think many mercenaries want more emphasis on shields than on shields. Thick armor is of course welcome, but I think it is better to have a range that does not affect maneuverability. Armor is the last fort after losing the shield, but ordinary mercenaries turn to escape when the shield is about to be breached I guess it's hard to be a mercenary who continues to fight while receiving attacks with armor. "

Also, armor upgrades are often more expensive than shield generator upgrades. He said that he would not be able to demonstrate his strength without spending money, and that he would be shunned if he demonstrated his strength.

"Umm, I see." "In terms of firepower, a small combat ship must have at least two Class 2 weapons. If at least one Class 3 weapon could be loaded, it would be quite popular. Class 1 armament is too poor, so I think mercenaries will be more pleased with a class 2 armament than with a class 1 armament. "

Class 1 armament is a so-called small artillery, and there is no problem if you think that class 2 and class 3 correspond to medium and large artillery, respectively. By the way, Krishna's four heavy laser cannons and two shard cannons are all Class 3 weapons. This is why Krishna's firepower, which carries six class-3 weapons despite small battleships and even anti-ship torpedoes, can be described as a heavy cruiser. If a small ship is originally a small ship, it is usually a letter if it can carry at least one Class 3 weapon.

"I will be very helpful"

The dwarf technician, who put my words on my tablet device, bowed a little and rushed into the hustle and bustle. Apparently, we're going to settle the dispute. Good luck.

"finished?"

Elma called out when the technician left me. It seems that that report had already ended.

"Ah, it looks like it was quick?" "Yes. There was no problem with the radar and communication systems. It seems that Elma was the same." Well, it was a dwelling company. Well, when it comes to the overall evaluation of the ship, I have to be dry, but it is out of the question that a ship that can not be used properly unless you are a pervert maneuver like Hiro I don't think it's so perverted ... "

Well, there are some tricks to run around in 3D space all the way while sliding by inertia. It depends on the practice, it depends on the practice. Start by cutting off the auto balancer and gyro. It's a good idea to spin around in space and spit out gero. I felt sick at best because I grasped the feeling on the screen of the personal computer, but if you do it in this world in real life, it will definitely spread a hellish sight!

"So what do you do?"

The fuss seemed to have settled before the fight began, but the technicians are in a bad mood. There came a dwarf technician who looked a bit tired. The technician we talked to earlier.

"Today we're going to adjust the aircraft, so that's fine for that job. I think we'll have the aircraft re-adjusted tomorrow." "Okay. Wonder"

When I turned my eyes, Mimi and Elma nodded, so we left the pilot's dog in the pilot's suit and changed into my original outfit.

☆ ★ ☆

After five days of test piloting, we were back in our spare time. Well, it may be a bit too much to say that spare time was spared because I was sightseeing inside the colony. Test pilot business? There's not much to talk about separately. I just played around with the prototype in a buoy, and Mimi and Elma looked at the equipment without any failures and malfunctions, and because of the prototype, the inertia control seemed blue in the slightly weak cockpit Only I was just getting used to it in the second half.

"Oh, my brother. I have no time." "Oh, my sister ... you can't."

Tina, lying on my side, lying on my couch, her head on her knees, fluttering at me, Whisker is watching her while hesitating. I don't feel bad for a small child like Tina, but you're cheap?

"Hmmmm"

I'll pick Tina's little nose with her fingers, fluttering on her lap. Hahaha, ruined cute face.

"I'm playing with nature ... it's tough."

Mimi and Elma are sitting at the table a little farther apart, giving the appearance of witnessing a strong enemy. That said, I still can afford somewhere because my treatment of Tina is quite rough. Aside from the honest gentle whisker, Tina is more of a pet animal frame for dogs and cats than for girls.

"So um ... it's about five days left before the mother ship is finished." "Yes. It's about 120 hours later. There are no delays, so I think it will be finished as planned. "

Mei, who was standing just beside the couch and answering my question, answered me.

"Krishna will be finished soon." "Yes. It's a little over the schedule, but it seems that it will be finished by today. It has been notified that delivery will be tomorrow due to reloading of luggage etc. Yes "" Yes "

I guess it's over here to relax at this hotel.

"Isn't your preparation proceeding?" "Nippon, Mochi Ron, and so on. We've finished ordering the things we need, and we'll be loading them as soon as the interior of the mother ship is over. Ready to go. "

Tina, who was silently picking her nose, said with a confident expression. I turned my eyes to whisker for the time being, but she is nodding herself, so she should have no problem. Maybe.

"Say. Hmm ... yes, do you go to the luxury store that Tina said last time?"

I heard a rattling sound in my words from the table where Mimi Elma was sitting. OK, of course I'll take Mimi too, so you can still sit down. Elma will of course bring you too. I remember that your eyes were shining brightly when you heard that famous sakes from various places were being collected.

And that night, a high-end store guided by Tina .... I tasted delicious yakitori at a restaurant called Yakitoriya.

Yeah, I know what I mean. It was a high-end restaurant called Yakitoriya, and it really was a yakitori shop as the name suggests. It is a shop that deals with real bird meat farmed in the two star systems next to it, but it was not as good as Kobe beef I saw some time, but the unit price per bottle was quite reasonable. Isn't it too much with 15 Negima Negima? Forcibly converted to Japanese yen, 1500 yen per bottle? Mimi was impressed with the taste of real chicken, Elma was satisfied with the taste of famous sake, and her sisters were impressed by the taste of yakitori, lamenting that they could not drink, and Elma drinking deliciously He sent a relentless gaze at. The period of their abstinence has not yet begun.

"The master isn't very impressed." "Well ..."

To me it's a normal yakitori. I was glad to cry if it was a black carbonated drink ... but unfortunately, the only thing I had in this store was water and a very expensive 100% juice except for sake. A cup of 100 energy or something fun. I drink 3 glasses of water.

In this way, the last night of hotel life went on.
