MTL - Epoch of Twilight-Chapter 503 No. 505: The first battle of space fighters (2)
Sitting in the central control room, Captain Yuan Guoqing took the helmet and controlled the aircraft in space through the miniature quantum brain of the eyeball, and quickly flew toward the target.
Compared to other rookie pilots from all walks of life who have a maximum of one hundred hours of driving experience, he is undoubtedly the most senior pilot of this newly formed flight brigade.
He has nearly two decades of flying experience and has experienced the era of the Republic and the era of reconstruction. Although most of these experiences are old-fashioned fighters, they can survive in the cruel era of the reconstruction area. Elite.
However, his luck still could not be maintained until the end. In a battle for air and space, his landline was accidentally wiped by a mutant bird, and the plane crashed. Fortunately, he timely cockpit ejection, fortunately escaped a life. However, during the process of landing, the arm was penetrated by hard branches and severe puncture wounds occurred.
After returning to the reconstruction area, it is already three days later. His wound has already undergone severe decay. A small piece of muscle has disappeared. Although he has recovered after treatment, his hand is no longer as flexible as before. For a pilot, this undoubtedly means early retirement.
In fact, the same is true. After raising the wound, he returned to Unity City and was responsible for the local pilot selection work.
At the same time, he also escaped when the Bolivians were extinct from the global human race.
Yuan Guoqing thought that he had completely bid farewell to the sky, but did not expect that he was called again.
The development of science and technology, beyond everyone's imagination, has never thought of even in the illusion of arrogance. In his lifetime, he can personally operate a space fighter, even if it is only controlled by brain waves.
At this point, in front of his eyes is a miniature spacecraft control room interface.
Looking at the occasional meteorite sliding from the side of the virtual reality scene, Yuan Guoqing has a feeling of being in the fighter plane, but in addition to the beginning, he still has some fuss, but now it has not changed.
Yuan Guoqing looked at the speed of the control room interface display and found that he had reached the highest safe speed in the stellar system unconsciously, 1,500 kilometers per second, and the speed was completely locked.
In space, because the reference object is far away, if you don't look at the speed display, you don't feel your movement at all.
"The players reported their respective fighters." Yuan Guoqing connected the communication chain and asked the players. Although the players are right next to them, they can hear them even if they don't connect to the communication, but as a senior pilot, he knows the necessity of these procedures, and often avoids many accidents.
After all, driving a space fighter is too simple. It is a fool mode. It basically does not require extra operations. Even if it is a pig, it will be able to work for the pilot with a little groping for a while. This also leads to many pilots. When flying, the spirit is often insufficient. concentrated.
"Reporting the captain, the swan is all good."
"Reporting captain, the Raven is all good."
"Reporting captain, the Hawks are all good."
"Reporting captain, the sparrow is all good."
......
"The Sparrow and the Eagles, pay attention to flying in a formation sequence, don't act alone!" Yuan Guoqing glanced at the location icons of other fighters and found that two of them had left the formation and could not help but scold.
This kind of rookie pilot, who has a long military career and has become a relatively old-fashioned person, has a headache. He is not only disciplined, but also often wants to show a wave of operation. Fortunately, it is a fully automatic fighter. If you switch to an old fighter, it has already been destroyed.
Fortunately, he can barely keep these rookies, and there are no moths.
He closed his eyes slightly and began to nurse his spirit. He still has a long period of time from the target of the battle. This is a test of both physical strength and energy for anyone, especially for middle-aged and elderly people like him. Need to maintain ample energy.
And this is the first time their flight team has performed a combat mission, which must be done beautifully.
In fact, there has always been doubts about whether to vigorously develop the space warfare military. This debate is endless. The more radical view is that when civilization develops into the space age, the two-dimensional battlefield becomes a three-dimensional battlefield. In the past, the war mode of the Earth is no longer applicable. The future war will be restored to the era of giant ship cannons. In a close battle, the space fighters can not be used as a limited supplement, not the main war. arms.
After all, a combat spacecraft often has terrible combat power, an impenetrable defense network, and more advanced reconnaissance capabilities, which are far from being comparable to those of space warfare, especially the emergence of light-speed weapons such as lasers. Moreover, the space fighter has no use.
While space fighters also have laser weapons, it is impossible to destroy a spaceship with limited energy, but the laser weapon of the spacecraft, even the weakest defensive laser cannon, can easily be destroyed. Space fighters, without him, the level of energy between each other, not at all levels.
In wars with similar levels of technology, it is necessary to rely on space fighters to destroy a large spacecraft. Unless the number is large enough, it is close to it.
This view, Yuan Guoqing did not dare to agree, even if he is not a radical carrier, it is completely opposed to this pure giant ship cannon.
It is undoubtedly dangerous and stupid to let the spacecraft expose the enemy's artillery.
Don't say that there are only one human spacecraft now. All human beings live in spaceships. Even if humans can make spacecraft on a large scale in the future, the number of spacecraft will eventually be limited because of resource constraints. Destroying a ship is a huge one. loss.
In contrast, space fighters are completely like cheap goods.
The steel that a spaceship needs to consume can make thousands of tens of thousands of pieces. Even if it is completely destroyed, only one net will be made.
What's more, encountering a civilization that is almost the same as human science and technology is a matter of minimum probability. There are only two real situations, either stronger than humans or weak humans.
The former, naturally, needless to say, at least in the current situation of mankind, only escape, the spacecraft inside the spacecraft can interfere with each other's pursuit. As for the latter, the number of space fighters will far outweigh the spacecraft.
In his mind, in the future, the spacecraft will be a combination of aircraft carriers and battleships. The space fighter is an extension of the spacecraft's strength and an important component of the spacecraft's defense and offensive forces. In the early days of the war, it will be responsible for the early detection of intelligence in the war. It will assist in attacking and intercepting slow-moving weapons. Even if human technology develops to a more incredible degree, space fighters will still not be easily eliminated.
......
Venus in the distance has been thrown behind them, and in contrast, the behemoth is still a small point that is invisible.
Time has passed for thirteen hours, during which I have eaten lunch and dinner, and now I am finally approaching the goal.
The distance between the two is less than 500,000 kilometers. Although the distance is completely astronomical from the perspective of the humans before the end of the world, for today, the speed of the space fighter is five minutes. .
At this time, Yuan Guoqing's spirit was highly concentrated and he was completely in combat. He silently counted for ten seconds, and then ordered: "All players pay attention to decelerate to 500 kilometers per second!"
"The Swan is received!"
"The Sparrow is received!"
"The Eagle received it!"
"The Ravens received!"
......
This behemoth slowly travels in space, behind the hot sun, dyes its body golden, here is close to the sun, the light is quite glaring, the temperature in the sun in space can reach four or five hundred degrees Celsius, but This temperature seems to have no effect on this monster.
Perhaps the distance is too far away. At this time, it does not feel that the crisis is coming, and it still flies straight according to the existing trajectory.
Time passes by one minute.
When the distance is 100,000 kilometers away, Yuan Guoqing finally issued an attack command: "All players pay attention to the laser cannon storage preparation!"
"attack!"
In just one-third of a second, ten high-energy lasers cut through the space and suddenly hit the body of the behemoth, splashing a faint glow.
The body of the behemoth was slightly shivering. In space, it silently roared, and then the energy of the whole body suddenly blazed, and the space swayed with ripples. However, although it reacted quite fiercely, it was only instinctively instinctively attacked by inexplicable attacks. In fact, there was no injury at all. This kind of high-energy laser that could penetrate an aircraft carrier hit it, except for some energy fluctuations. It is completely unscathed.
In this case, after a few rounds, the players also noticed.
"Captain, it seems that the laser is useless to it!"
Yuan Guoqing did not speak immediately. He looked at the magnified virtual reality and observed the reaction of the behemoth. He couldn’t help but feel awe of this creature. This incredible creature is undoubtedly powerful against the energy, the laser of the space fighter. It is just like itching.
However, apart from this, it does not seem to have any effective counter-attacks. It can only bear the attack in vain, but think about it. In the face of tens of thousands of kilometers of distant kilometers, this monster may not even see the shadow of the fighter. Not to mention the attack.
“Estimating the fastest flight speed of space creatures?” Yuan Guoqing asked the brain in his mind.
"30.5 km / sec!"
The artificial intelligence of the space fighter is far from the advanced of the spacecraft. In comparison, it is still relatively rigid.
Yuan Guoqing judged the situation of each other and suddenly had a bottom in the form of war. This war has its absolute advantage. As long as the space fighter does not hit it, they are completely invincible by virtue of speed advantage. He immediately changed the order: "The formation is disbanded, the electromagnetic gun is changed, and the attack is free."
He did not believe that even the electromagnetic gun could not shake it.
As soon as the order came out, several players cheered. The next time the fighters suddenly screamed like wild dogs, they flew in all directions.
