Chapter 2024: big change (medium)

Latest URL: If the two turrets were not transferred to Thonburi when Akagi was converted into an aircraft carrier, but moved to another Japanese heavy cruiser built at the same time, then, as the Japanese side gradually fell into a disadvantage in the later stages of the war and more and more Japanese warships were sunk, it is very likely that it would have disappeared long ago.

Later, when Thonburi was decommissioned from the Royal Thai Navy and left for dismantling as usual, the two forts once again avoided the fate of being destroyed.

Therefore, just the ending of being "collected to the Naval Academy and kept until now" is enough to give the fort that has been upgraded to colorful equipment following the transformation of Thonburi with the attribute of "+lucky".

Look at other attributes.

Perhaps because it has never been used again and has never been fired, the firepower attribute of this piece of equipment has been cut by more than half. Originally, when it was purple-level equipment, it could still provide +7 points of firepower, but after upgrading to colored equipment, the firepower attribute plummeted to only 3 points.

The deducted 4 attribute points, as well as the attribute points that should be increased after two consecutive upgrades, were added to several other items.

Durability +2, defense +2, evasion +2, enemy detection +2... plus the anti-air +3 and hit +1 that comes with the purple-level equipment, as well as the lucky +2 explained above, this equipment renamed "Brilliant Legacy" can add 14 attributes to the user in total.

Although the total points are still not enough, it can't compare with those golden colored main guns that can increase firepower by 20+ at any time, and it can't compare with various advanced carrier-based aircraft, but equipment that can comprehensively improve various attributes like it is actually quite rare. And from a practical point of view, the benefits it brings to users are no worse than those of the main guns that focus on strengthening firepower.

All in all, this piece of equipment does not deserve its status as a colorful piece of equipment, and it can be regarded as a very good harvest.

It is worth mentioning that not only Thonburi alone, but also the other ship girls also brought one or two pieces of advanced equipment after completing the transformation. Moreover, like the 'Brilliant Legacy', it is a new gadget that Shi Xiaolei has never seen before.

Like Vesta.

After completing the transformation, she was upgraded to a 'multifunctional supply ship'. Although there is still the word supply ship in the name, judging from the classification of the ship type, it is like the ship girls who have been transformed into thunder patrol, guided patrol, and defense patrol after transformation.

The equipment that comes with the transformation is no longer what it was when it was just built. There is only one green-level 'American-made single-mounted 5-inch gun'. As the Kitchen Goddess herself was upgraded from the gold level to the color level, her equipment slots also increased to four, of which three slots had their own equipment.

Two pieces of golden equipment, one of color grade.

The golden equipment equipped in the first grid is the AGM-84 Harpoon anti-ship missile. It's exactly the same as the one that came with the Missouri remodel, there is no difference.

It does not need to take up a lot of space like the main gun, and it will not produce excessive shock force when firing, which will affect the structural stability of the hull. At the same time, it can provide a considerable level of firepower points and greatly improve the self-protection ability... From the perspective of various factors, this equipment is indeed very suitable for installation on modern supply ships and used as a self-defense weapon.

The golden equipment in the second grid is a red boat equipped with a machine gun and a small lifting arm, named 'Fireline Rescue'.

According to the name of this piece of equipment and the shape of the boat itself, it is obvious that this thing is a multifunctional emergency rescue boat that takes into account the functions of rescuing people who fell into the water, salvaging supplies, rushing to repair damaged hulls, and towing stranded ships.

From its '+3 luck' attribute, it can also reflect this point - having this small boat means that the chance of escaping from death has increased by a few points. From another perspective, it is equivalent to increasing the luck value.

The last colorful piece of equipment is a flag named 'Battle Star'.

As a maintenance ship, Vesta began serving in 1913, and it was not until 1946 that the U.S. Navy's active service sequence was launched.

Just looking at the length of service, but only 33 years, not too long. But judging from the timeline, she caught up with two world wars.

This qualification alone is enough to look at.

As for the achievements during the war...

I won’t mention World War I, which is too long ago, but only those accumulated during World War II.

Vesta also happened to be docked at the pier when the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor. Therefore, in the air raid and bombing, she also suffered a lot of trauma.

He was not sunk, and he didn't need the help of other ships. He repaired himself and provided support to several other ships that were severely damaged... The performance in the Pearl Harbor incident alone is enough to give the Vesta a note.

After that, the Vesta stayed in Tongatapu Island for another 60 days. During this period, she completed 963 maintenance tasks, repaired 58 warships, and completed 4 salvage missions.

After that, the Vesta, which was originally planning to go to the New Hebrides, received an order midway and transferred to the waters of New Caledonia. Arriving in Noumea on October 31, she immediately began repairing South Dakota and Enterprise.

At that time, the rear of the Enterprise's flight deck was hit by a bomb, forming a series of depressions. Due to the severe damage, the mechanical room of the lift machine at the rear was flooded, and a lot of equipment in the command room was also damaged. It is no exaggeration to say that even if it is sent back to the shipyard for repairs, it will take a lot of time to complete the repairs.

But at that time, the U.S. Navy was severely damaged. In the entire Pacific battlefield, only the enterprise, the aircraft carrier, was left to make do with it. Judging from the situation at the time, there was no room to send it back to the shipyard for overhaul.

In this way, Vesta took on the heavy responsibility of maintaining the enterprise account.

Thanks to a maintenance crew sent by Vesta, the Enterprise was able to continue repairs during the voyage. If the Vesta hadn't been strong enough to restore the Enterprise's combat effectiveness two hours before the battle, the outcome of the subsequent battle might have changed completely.

Including the direction of the entire subsequent battle, it will also be greatly affected-Vesta repaired the Enterprise more than once. In fact, the reason why the Enterprise can be called the "grey ghost" has been claimed to have been sunk many times but has not been sunk. The Vesta can be regarded as the most important contributor. In other words, without the Vesta, the Enterprise might have sunk long ago.

As we all know, the reason why the U.S. military can continue to fight the Japanese army on the Pacific battlefield is because the Enterprise has been very active, giving them the most critical anger.

If the Enterprise is sunk... One thing to say, the U.S. military will have to play GG nine times out of ten, completely losing the opportunity to compete for positions.

This shows how much the Kitchen God contributed.

It's not over yet.

After completing 158 repairs on 21 ships, including the Enterprise, Vesta was sent to Espiritu Santo to begin a year-long routine repair. During the year, Vesta completed 5,603 repair missions on 278 ships and participated in 24 rescue operations.

After that ~www.readwn.com~ Vesta went to Funafuti in 1943 and completed 604 repairs on 77 ships.

Throughout World War II, Vesta completed thousands of repair tasks. It is no exaggeration to say that without her, many famous warships, including the Enterprise, would certainly not have survived to the highlight of their careers. The trend of the situation during World War II is also very likely to become very different.

So, despite the lack of kills, the Kitchen Goddess is not as well-known as the Enterprise and other famous warships, but in terms of achievements and contributions, she is definitely one of the best heroes on the Allied side.

This is the reason why Vesta would bring a 'battle star flag' after her transformation.

Only meritorious ships that have made great contributions are eligible to be named battle stars. Although the Vesta is not the ship with the most battle stars, if the two conditions of 'non-combat ship' and 'staying on the main battlefield all the year round' are included, she is at least one of the best, even if she can't qualify as 'unique to anyone else'.
