After a brief period of adaptive training, the five airships currently owned by the Aerospace Laboratory were dispatched to Portuguese Timor and Portuguese India, serving as the trump cards for the defense of both regions.
Since the airplanes needed to be kept confidential, they could not be used in the upcoming war. However, the airships could play a similar role to airplanes, with good performance in reconnaissance, bombing and other aspects, and could also be used for transportation of supplies.
If there was no war, the five airships would act as transportation tools, each being able to transport more than ten tons of supplies and taking much less time than transport ships.
Fortunately, the three occupied colonies had large indigenous populations, so there was no shortage of labor when building the defenses, and the construction speed was fast.
