Chapter 1249: Star Wars
Zhao Chen looked at the interstellar fighters that were rising up in front of him.
T5 Dragonhawk-class medium-sized interstellar fighter.
During this time, Zhao Chen had become quite familiar with this interstellar fighter.
This starfighter is very inexpensive to build, but its performance ranks among the best in the universe.
Although it is not the most outstanding one.
However, due to its high cost-effectiveness, it has become the standard model for equipping T5-level starfighters on various carrier starships within the Star Alliance.
And they possess a vast number of production lines, regardless of how many interstellar fighters they lose on the battlefield.
The resupply of interstellar fighters can be delivered within three hours.
It can take up to half a day.
This is the advantage of this type of interstellar weapon.
We are not worried at all about fighting any war of attrition.
We offer large portions to satisfy all your cravings!
Zhao Chen quickly entered the interstellar fighter cabin.
We began to check each of the aircraft's performance parameters one by one.
And in this process.
The interstellar fighter that Zhao Chen was in had risen again, ascending upwards.
During this process, Zhao Chen completed all the inspection items.
"DK9577, everything is normal."
"We are ready to fight."
After Zhao Chen finished reading these words, he waited.
finally.
The previously dark surroundings were now bright and open.
Zhao Chen's interstellar fighter was lifted onto a flight runway.
This flight runway is actually the outer side of the aircraft carrier starship's hull.
The flight runways equipped on aircraft carriers and starships generally fall into several types.
The most common method is to build flight runways at different locations on the hull of the ship, and then lift the interstellar fighters that need to go into battle onto the flight runways.
This method is low-cost and efficient.
The only drawback is that the flight path outside the ship is easily damaged.
Secondly, there are semi-concealed flight runways.
If the first type is considered to be completely open-air...
That kind is a semi-open-air type.
There is only one flight window for the starfighter to launch, and it will also be equipped with a Star Shield field for protection.
Increased security.
However, takeoff and landing efficiency will be affected to some extent.
Currently, most aircraft carriers and starships are based on these two types.
Zhao Chen glanced around.
This is one of the flight runways on this aircraft carrier starship, but despite this...
The runway is still very large.
According to data, this runway can accommodate fifty interstellar fighters taking off at the same time.
On average, it can accommodate the take-off and landing of 6,000 interstellar fighters per hour.
Under extreme conditions, it can achieve the takeoff and landing of over 10,000 interstellar fighters.
There are at least ten more flight runways like this on this aircraft carrier starship.
Thus, Zhao Chen saw a starfighter in front of him, its engine starting up, flying towards the distant starry sky with a blue tail flame.
"DK9577 has been granted takeoff clearance."
Takeoff will be completed within twenty seconds.
The voice of the air traffic controller in charge of managing the runway came through Zhao Chen's communication channel.
"Received." Zhao Chen immediately took off.
According to the training time, the passing score for this operation is twenty seconds.
Zhao Chen completed this series of operations in less than fifteen seconds.
This was after Zhao Chen deliberately 'paused' his way through the situation.
The takeoff and landing data, as well as the combat data, of each starfighter are recorded.
This allows us to observe the combat status, operational status, and combat record of each starfighter pilot.
Zhao Chen didn't want to stand out too much.
Naturally, one needs to keep a low profile.
Soon, Zhao Chen's interstellar fighter took off.
At this moment, a flight formation pop-up window automatically appeared in front of him.
There are already signals from more than ten interstellar fighters inside.
This is a flight formation.
After takeoff, the pilots of each flight squadron of starfighters do not immediately head to the battlefield.
Instead, a formation needs to be completed first.
Waiting for a squadron of 300 starfighters to take off would be a waste of time.
Therefore, most of the time, a formation of about thirty aircraft is formed first before they can participate in the battle.
Within this temporary formation, high-ranking fighter pilots will be given priority to serve as commanders.
Soon, Zhao Chen's flight formation was completed.
Thirty interstellar fighters have formed a temporary squadron.
It just so happens that a deputy squadron leader is serving as the squadron leader.
This deputy captain was naturally Lieutenant Zhang's second-in-command.
He is a warrant officer.
His military rank was also the highest among the thirty starfighter pilots.
"U-shaped battle formation."
"Heading to the K-761 combat zone." The warrant officer then began assigning combat tasks.
Thirty interstellar fighters, who will be the main attacker, who will be the wingman, and so on.
Zhao Chen, the new recruit, naturally took on the role of wingman.
Assisting the main attack aircraft in combat mainly involves providing firepower suppression and drawing the attention of enemy aircraft.
Help the main attacking fighter destroy the enemy's starfighters.
Zhao Chen is actually quite satisfied with this role.
Don't worry about being too flamboyant.
After flying for several minutes.
Zhao Chen finally saw the area of interstellar air combat.
This area is located on the flank of the battlefield.
There are no starships; it's entirely a battlefield for interstellar space combat.
It can be considered a flight path.
Which of the two fleets will capture this flight path?
You can then dispatch your own starfighters to harass the enemy's starships directly from the side and rear!
Therefore, this flight path is very important.
This naturally created a scenario of large-scale air combat.
Zhao Chen glanced at it.
The battlefield was very empty, with no other celestial units except for a few small satellites.
Therefore, the field of vision is quite good.
Currently, at least 50,000 interstellar fighters from both sides have gathered here for a duel.
The deployment of Zhao Chen's squadron of thirty interstellar fighters was like a drop of water being poured into a pool.
But that's their mission.
Soon, Zhao Chen's squadron engaged the enemy in combat.
The two sides went back and forth.
Zhao Chen could hear various sounds from the command channel.
Someone shouted, "Target locked!"
Someone has been targeted by the enemy.
A space fighter has been surrounded by the enemy and is requesting support.
Some had already killed their opponents.
As the battle continued, aircraft were soon shot down.
Zhao Chen glanced at the pop-up window next to him.
There were originally exactly thirty names.
Three of them have now turned gray.
This means that the three starfighters have been destroyed.
So far, Zhao Chen has not actually destroyed a single interstellar fighter.
It seemed like Zhao Chen was just playing a minor role.
However, upon closer inspection, it becomes clear that Zhao Chen's interstellar fighter coordinates remarkably well with its allies.
The interstellar fighters that cooperate with Zhao Chen often achieve good results.
One should not be too modest in life.
Seeing that everyone's battle results were quite good, Zhao Chen also took the opportunity to kill a starfighter.
Otherwise, he might return with zero results.
