Chapter 459: Intensified Contradictions
Sova-class Carrier, this will be the first regular Carrier of the Fourth Civilization, not the Escort Carrier of the Percheron-class Light Carrier, or the modified Carrier of the Homeworld-class. Read latest chapters at novelhall.com Only
This kind of Carrier is 1,300 meters long, can carry 400 Wraith Fighters, or more than 1,400 Vulture Droid Fighters, and is equipped with an Advanced Flight Control System that can coordinate and command Cluster Operations of hundreds of Fighters.
Moreover, this Carrier is also equipped with powerful firepower for emergencies. Two Heavy-Duty Turbolasers are installed in front of the Carrier, and 8 sets of Dual-Mounted General-Purpose Medium-Sized Turbolasers for Warships & Fighters are installed on both sides.
At the same time, 8 Heavy-Duty Unmanned Missile Platforms are hoisted outside the Sova-class Carrier. During combat, these 8 Unmanned Missile Platforms can be released around the Carrier to form a Three-Dimensional Air Defense Firepower Network. While the squadron is taking off and landing, the enemy Fighters that make a surprise attack will deliver a fatal strike.
As a Military Carrier, the Sova-class Carrier has 4 Huge Take-Off and Landing Platforms on the top, and each Take-Off and Landing Platform has 5 Electromagnetic Acceleration Guided Railguns.
If the battle situation is urgent, the side Cargo Platform can also be opened, allowing Fighters to levitate and take off with Anti-Gravity Engines, and swarm out from the side.
As mentioned before, the Givin and Sy Myrthians in the Freemasonry Alliance are not very interested in this kind of Carrier, so this kind of Carrier is basically handed over to Dawn after the Givin completed the research and development work.
In order to cooperate with the Carrier, the Scientific Research Department of the Fourth Civilization also developed two types of Auxiliary Ships to cooperate with it - the Hoshiko-class Robotics Cruiser and the Cielo-class Command Cruiser.
The Hoshiko-class Robotics Cruiser is a disc-shaped spaceship with a diameter of 260 meters, which is filled with Maintenance Drones and carries 20 SCVs equipped with Jet Engines, which can provide Maintenance Support for surrounding Warships.
The Cielo-class Command Cruiser belongs to the Cruiser class, with a length of 400 meters and a Crew of 700 people. It is equipped with the most Advanced Tactical and Target Analysis Artificial Intelligence System (T.A.T.A). Fleet-Level Tactical Command, and ensuring that the complex Electromagnetic Environment on the battlefield can be closer to the front line, reduce Interference, and issue orders.
Such an approach made the polarization of the Galactic Republic more and more serious and also provided a breeding ground for Count Dooku's Separatist Movement.
However, this time, Tang Xiao still politely rejected Count Dooku's solicitation. He still went his own way, forming a small group for himself, and then gradually expanding.
However, Tang Xiao readily agreed to Count Dooku's proposal to strengthen ties with those Corporate Giants across the Galaxy.
He knew that this was Count Dooku laying the groundwork for the future Separatist Forces, that is, the political and economic system of the Confederacy of Independent Systems.
The Confederacy of Independent Systems is led by the five Major Corporate Giants - the Trade Federation, the Corporate Alliance, the Interstellar Banking Clan, the Techno Union, and the Commerce Guild. A large number of backward planets in the Outer Ring and the Middle Ring provide them with resources and allow them to control their own economy and the lifeblood of the industry. A deformed political system that has become part of the war machine.
But only in this way, those Corporate Giants will agree to help Count Dooku fight a face-to-face war with the Galactic Republic.
Count Dooku, he doesn't care what happens to these Corporate Giants. Anyway, sooner or later, they will be eaten as food for the establishment of the new order.
And to Tang Xiao, it didn't matter. Because now among these Corporate Giants, there is one more, the Fourth Group. For the matter of controlling oneself and handing over the left hand to the right, why not do it?
Not long after Count Dooku left the Dawn, another earthquake occurred in the political arena of the Galaxy! As many as 500 Planets officially announced that they refused to recognize the taxation proposal of the Galactic Republic and refused to pay taxes.
And one day later, dozens of Planets with better relations, such as Dawn, Sy Myrth, and Yag'Dhul, also announced their refusal to recognize the taxation proposal. No tax will be paid until the issue is reached.
The Galactic Republic also reacted. Supreme Chancellor Sheev Palpatine held a press conference and delivered a public speech, denouncing Count Dooku for splitting the Republic, and said that these Planets that refused to pay taxes would be sanctioned.
