Stellaris: Earth Alliance

Chapter 64 Conventional Frigates
"But what does this regular type mean? In addition to regular, are there also large and super large?"

Qin Xu asked with some confusion.

Before Chen Xiaomeng could answer, a familiar voice suddenly sounded outside.

"In addition to conventional frigates, there are four main types of energy kinetic armor shields. Different mixtures of different proportions will also have different prefixes in front of the name of the spacecraft."

Before anyone arrived, the sound came first. Everyone turned around to look, only to see Yu Minghai walking in from outside.

"Hey, long time no see."

Yu Minghai greeted casually.

Then he glanced at Qin Xu and said with a complicated expression: "I didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, you would become my boss."

Qin Xu was also surprised, "Did the commander ask you to come?"

"Of course I came on my own. I heard that the commander went to find you and gave you a frigate, so I applied to come with him. Anyway, I'm not a captain, so it's the same wherever I go."

"Can you tell me more about what type of frigate the energy kinetic energy is? We don't know much about this aspect."

Chen Xiaomeng had already stood up from the captain's position and walked to Yu Minghai.

"Conventional frigates are equipped with kinetic energy weapons, energy weapons, armor defense, shield defense, etc. in a balanced proportion. They are warships that can adapt to all situations."

"For example, a frigate has two main guns and 20 secondary guns. If it is a conventional frigate, then there will be a blue laser launcher and a rail gun among the two main guns."

"The remaining 20 secondary guns are cross-distributed with the number of energy weapons and kinetic energy weapons. In terms of defense, the armor thickness and shield strength will also be configured at a ratio close to 50%."

"In addition to conventional frigates, there are specialized frigates for certain situations. For example, the two main guns and 20 secondary guns are all laser weapons, and those that completely abandon kinetic energy weapons are called laser frigates."

"And if you modify the laser frigate again, reduce the thickness of the armor to the minimum, and then increase the strength of the shield generator to the maximum, then it will be a specialized ship specifically targeting the opponent's laser frigate, with the prefix "laser shield" Shield frigate.”

"So in turn, there will be configurations of laser armor type, kinetic energy shield type, and kinetic energy armor type?"

Qin Xu drew inferences from one instance.

"Yes, that's it."

Yu Minghai nodded and continued.

"As for why there are these specialized ships, I think you should know, so I won't say more."

"I know a little bit about this. Xiaomeng said before that shield defense has a 50% weakening effect on laser weapons. A laser that hits 100 points of damage can only hit 50 points of damage based on the shield value. But other than this, I don't think I can knew."

Qin Xu remembered what Chen Xiaomeng said before.

Chen Xiaomeng followed and expanded.

"You can simply remember it. Lasers can defeat armor, kinetic energy can defeat shields, missiles and carrier-based aircraft can penetrate them, and anti-aircraft guns can defeat missiles and carrier-based aircraft."

"Among them, missiles and carrier-based aircraft are the most lethal weapons if the anti-aircraft guns and other interception capabilities on the opposite side are insufficient. On the other hand, if there are too many anti-aircraft guns on the opposite side, missile weapons may not be able to do any damage at all."

"Carrier-based aircraft can charge at close range and insert into the enemy's hull for landing operations, or they can pass through the opposite shield and directly attack the enemy's hull, causing penetrating damage. Regardless of whether the carrier-based aircraft hits The tracking rate and tracking rate are very high, and the only drawback may be that like missile weapons, they will be intercepted by enemy anti-aircraft guns."

Listening to Chen Xiaomeng's introduction, Qin Xu picked up the notebook and started to memorize it, with a good learning attitude.After all, if you don’t even know these at a critical moment, it is likely to cause major decision-making errors.

But of course it was different from Chen Xiaomeng who explained the relevant content to Qin Xu carefully like a primary school teacher.

When Yu Minghai found out that Qin Xu didn't even know such basic knowledge about captaining, he was stunned. He looked at Qin Xu in disbelief.

"No, if you don't even know this, why were you promoted to captain by Commander Qi? How many levels have you been promoted in one go?"

"Although you are indeed regarded as a great person in the army, personal combat ability and ship command ability cannot be equated. How could the commander be so confident and directly let you become the captain, and directly participate in it for the first time? It’s actual combat…”

In fact, not only Yu Minghai felt strange about this, but also Chen Xiaomeng, including Qin Xu himself.

What was strange to Chen Xiaomeng was that the other party didn't know that Qin Xu had the ability to predict the future. Why was he so relieved that Qin Xu would become the captain?
Chen Xiaomeng is not worried because she does know that Qin Xu can predict the future for a short time, so there is nothing wrong with him being the captain.

But she wasn't worried, and it didn't mean that other people who didn't know the situation could be so big-hearted.

Qin Xu was also confused about this.

Not many people seem to know about his ability to predict the future.

He also told Chen Xiaomeng, and then Su Lixuan and Liu Wenhan probably guessed a little bit, but it should be just a guess.

Even if Su Lixuan really told Commander Qi his guess, would Commander Qi just believe it?
This is so bold.

After all, why should you believe that a person can predict the future for no reason?
Just like what Qin Xu and Chen Xiaomeng said at the beginning, do you think it is more likely that I can predict the future, or that artificial intelligence is more likely to make mistakes?

Chen Xiaomeng would also say that artificial intelligence is more likely to make mistakes.

Anyway, Chen Xiaomeng was worried about Qin Xu, but Yu Minghai was not.

With one arm around Qin Xu's neck, he wanted to drag him to tutor his homework, and insisted that he learn it from beginning to end.

Yu Minghai already has qualifications and strength close to that of a captain, so when he talks about the captain's relevant knowledge at this moment, he is also comprehensive.

After listening to it day by day, Qin Xu also understood the knowledge in this area very quickly.

As thousands of Space Force soldiers entered the frigate, and together with the two hundred transferred scientists from the Mozi research ship, the frigate could finally be activated.

The ion thruster of the Flying Star frigate started and it slowly left the port from the space anchorage next to the Solar Space Station.

At this time, there are still seven months before the Rock Republic officially declares war on the Bazadi Empire, or a full-scale invasion.

Qi Zhengxi did not immediately ask Qin Xu and others to gather in the first fleet cluster, but asked them to get used to driving the frigate first.

Make aimless hyperspace jumps between galaxies and perform some simple drill missions along the way.

Quickly promoting a pure rookie to be the captain means that Commander Qi has the authority to do this to a person.

But even though he has such authority, it is inevitable that people will gossip behind his back.
