Soon, the Intelligence Department at the rear sent a message. Admiral McGlenn looked at the news and frowned, "According to the Intelligence Department, the Wraith Starfighter was launched 12 years ago and entered the black market. It is a very popular Starfighters, we have all the data here, but it is clear that the Wraiths used by the Separatists are much more capable than what we have recorded."
"This is inevitable. In the past 12 years, the Wraith Starfighters have probably been continuously improved. Moreover, Dawn must have accumulated a large amount of combat data through the massive export of Wraith Starfighters for targeted upgrades. In contrast, Many of our Starfighters have not been tested in actual combat." Said Jedi Master Aidan Bok on the other side.
"Hmph! In contrast, the Senate of the Republic has not allowed the Weapons ordered by the Military to flow into the market. Those Senators are afraid of increasing the production of Weapons, and also afraid that our Military will get more funds through the arms trade! This has caused our Weapons and Equipment to be built behind closed doors!" Admiral McGlenn said loudly with a fiery temper.
Glynn-Beti glanced at him and said lightly: "It can't be said that way, Admiral. As far as I know, Kuat Drive Yards, Rendili StarDrive, and Corellian Engineering Corporation, all have a complete Weapon Design and Testing System, and the Weapons and Equipment that come out of this Testing System, even if there is no actual combat test, will have a lot of simulation tests, and there will be no performance problems."
Admiral McGlenn shook his head, looked at the information and continued: "There is also information that shows that a group of pirates called the Black Ship once appeared near Tatooine, and they used invisible Wraith Starfighters. However, you and I know, this information has not received any attention. Hehe..."
Seeing this, he sneered, and slapped it on the table, "Stupid! If it weren't for the wise Supreme Chancellor to stand up to the crowd and establish the Great Republic Army, the Fleet of Dawn alone can directly push all the way to the Inner Rim!"
When it came to this topic, he was obviously very angry, but he did not forget his duty, and said to Glynn-Beti: "General, I suggest that we forcefully launch a landing operation immediately."
"Tell me your plan, Admiral McGlenn, you are the most professional in commanding the war," Glynn-Beti said.
Admiral McGlenn pointed to the Holographic Star Map and said: "You see, the Stealth Starfighters of the Separatists did not come to attack us directly. Now both of us have returned to the situation of Long-Range Artillery Battles. This is what they are very willing to see. Their Battleships have powerful firepower, and they also have this kind of Kinetic Energy Cannon, our only advantage is that our Battleships have stronger Deflector Shields than the enemy. If this continues, our Fleet is not an opponent!"
"I agree with that," Glynn-Beti replied.
"But our Starfighter Group still has an absolute advantage. The only chance for the Separatists to win is their Stealth Starfighters, but now we are powerless to fight against them. I just confirmed with the Technical Department that the Radar of the Venator-class Star Destroyer can discover and lock Stealth Starfighters within 5,000 kilometers."
"In space combat, this distance is very deadly, and a Starfighter with an afterburner can even cross this distance in a few seconds." Aidan Bok said.
"But it's definitely not the speed of engagement, except for you Jedi Knights." Admiral McGlenn said, "So, in order to continue to play to our advantage, we must choose the battlefield by ourselves!"
As he said that, he had a heavy spot on Bespin on the Star Map.
"Forcibly landing on Bespin, will force the Separatist Stealth Starfighters to only fight around those Floating Cities, and our Battleships can provide guidance for our Starfighters. It's a good plan." Glynn-Beti said, "Only in this If we land under the circumstances, maybe our army will suffer a heavy blow during the landing process."
"But this is our greatest opportunity! 15,000 Starfighters should not retreat just because of the existence of 300 Stealth Starfighters! Moreover, the Supreme Chancellor has high hopes for us. If the arrogance of Separatism cannot be thwarted, then this war will be very tough," Admiral McGlenn said.
"Then if this is the case, Master Aidan and our Padawans will also join the battle. We will do our best to provide cover for the Soldiers of the Army." Glynn-Beti bowed to Admiral McGlenn, "May The Force be with you, Admiral McGlurn."
...
Following Admiral McGlenn's order, the formation of the Republic's Fleet changed abruptly, and the 47 Venator-class Star Destroyers that were still capable of combat rushed straight towards Bespin against the firepower of the Fourth Civilization Fleet. In the previous battle, they lost a total of 13 Venator-class Star Destroyers, of which 4 were completely destroyed and 9 lost their combat effectiveness.
Matt Horner, who sensed the Republic Fleet's intentions, immediately ordered all the remaining 8 Hiigaran-class Battlecruisers, 41 Kol-class Battlecruisers, and 10 Sova-class Carriers to meet them decisively. During the battle, they lost 2 Hiigaran-class Battlecruisers and 9 Kole-class Battlecruisers, of which 1 Kol-class Battlecruiser was destroyed, and the others were severely damaged and unable to fight.
In the Fleet artillery battle, the Fourth Civilization Fleet has a slight advantage, but as Admiral McGlenn judged, if this continues, this advantage will expand like a snowball, and finally reach the point of no control.
After the Republic Fleet recovered the Starfighters that had returned before, it also continued to take off Starfighters, but the difference was that this time their Starfighters kept taking off and off, and finally took off a total of 3,000 V-19 Torrent Starfighters and 1,500 Z-95 Headhunter Starfighters!
The huge difference in numbers made the Fourth Civilization Fleet no longer dare to let its Starfighter Group take the initiative to attack. 300 Wraith Starfighters released their Stealth status one after another, began to charge the Cloaking Device, surrounded the Fleet, and did not rush out.
The Warships of the two sides are still exchanging fire, and the Fleet of the Galactic Republic rushes to the Outer Orbit of Bespin against the fire all the way. In the process, the distance between the Fleets of the two sides is getting closer and closer to a very dangerous level.
The Venator-class Star Destroyer began to concentrate its main Energy Supply on the Deflector Shield and fully expanded the Hangar Platforms at the front of the Battleship. Numerous LAAT Gunships were released and began to attack Bespin on more than ten Floating Cities in the Bespin Life Belt. The Republic has launched a full-scale landing operation!
