Bajin's call for replacing the space fleet's equipment had been ongoing for 2 days, and, finally, after Branny's maneuvers, the space fleet decided to adopt the new electromagnetic whip developed by the Stephen Family as its close-range weapon.
In fact, the Bergheide Fleet also intended to implement this technology ahead of time. Combat in space isn't the same as on the ground. Those two-faced politicians who wouldn't know what a powerful close-quarters fight in space means because they never have to join the battlefield. It can be said that the vast galaxy gives Mecha more freedom and convenience in movement, which in turn restricts the effect of long-range weapons. Aerial battles often result in close combat.
So to some extent, close combat weapons are more important than long-range ones, let alone an electromagnetic whip equipped on a super soldier?
