Following the order from the defense commander, the aircraft hangars inside the Sky Fortress and many hidden ones outside were opened.
One after another, fourth-generation space carrier-based aircraft rushed out from various locations in the galaxy and rushed towards the Galaxy Defense Task Force strike group.
A large number of carrier-based aircraft were deployed within this line of defense, with at least 400,000 aircraft deployed.
This is a considerable number.
But the task force strike group is no pushover either.
Each Xingyuan fleet is equipped with ten light carrier-based aircraft.
Three hundred Mirage-class battlecruisers means there will be three hundred light aircraft carriers.
Each light carrier-based aircraft carrier can deploy 1,200 carrier-based aircraft.
The number of carrier-based aircraft units dispatched by the light carrier-based aircraft carrier alone is almost the same as that of the carrier-based aircraft units dispatched by this Sky Fortress.
Moreover, the carrier-based aircraft of Galaxy Defense Group are more technologically advanced. Their avionics systems, weapon systems, and even defense capabilities are more advanced than those of Lidadas Capital.
Especially in terms of defense, today's carrier-based aircraft all use zero-element alloy and zero-element armor.
Even if the plasma shield is broken, the fuselage armor can still withstand a few more enemy attacks.
Li Xin ordered: "Order the carrier-based aircraft to take off!"
"No need to attack, just defend the defense line and the safety of the warship is enough!"
"Yes! Grand Marshal!"
The hangars of light carrier-based aircraft carriers opened one after another, and densely packed carrier-based aircraft and unmanned wingman flew out of the warships and began to intercept the enemy's carrier-based aircraft forces.
In this way, the Galaxy Defense Group's defense line becomes a multi-dimensional defense.
At close range, there were mecha troops on board the Phantom-class battlecruisers. They did not go out, but waited for the enemy's mecha troops to arrive.
At the same time, the Phantom-class battlecruiser's more advanced reconnaissance, command, and fire control systems will assist the entire army in combat under the control of the Dreadnought flagship.
With more advanced reconnaissance systems, the enemy's carrier-based aircraft forces have nowhere to hide, and even stealth fighters can reduce the chance of being detected by radar and other reconnaissance means.
But under the nose of the Mirage-class battlecruiser, it is basically like running naked.
The missiles launched by carrier-based aircraft will attack the enemy under the remote control of the Mirage-class battlecruiser's optoelectronic fire control system.
In this way, the exchange ratio of carrier-based aircraft combat between the two sides becomes greater.
The Guardian-class escort ships are in the middle position. They are defense nodes. With their higher performance and higher weapon strike capability, they can easily support a line of defense.
On the periphery, there is an outer defense line composed of destroyers and frigates.
The long, medium and short-range defense network almost completely enveloped the entire task force strike group.
The mecha troops of the Sky Fortress were also dispatched quickly, but their numbers were slightly insufficient.
Whether it is Lidadas Capital or not, their main strength is still concentrated on the front line of confrontation with Irving. This rear line of defense itself does not have much strategic support.
Facing the enemy's attacking mecha troops, the mecha hangars on the Phantom-class battlecruiser opened one after another, and the Rangers and Valiant Cavalry all rushed out.
Even Liu Yang, Yan Shuang and other A-level psychics joined the battle in their A-level mechas.
Specialized in killing those B-class space mecha units.
In a short period of time, the mecha troops dispatched from the Sky Fortress suffered heavy losses and basically achieved no results.
Because of the addition of A-level psychics to the battlefield, their mecha unit's B-level commanders suffered heavy losses.
Many commanders will be discovered as soon as they enter the battlefield and will be killed soon.
The loss of mecha troops has brought about chain changes.
Without the threat of mecha troops, the mecha troops of the Galaxy Defense Group can be transferred to other battlefields.
For example, it can be deployed to the battlefield of carrier-based aircraft.
One after another, the Ranger squadrons joined in the attack on the Lidadas Capital space fighters.
The relationship between carrier-based aircraft and rangers is like that between armored vehicles and mechas on land battlefields.
In front of the space mecha, the space fighter is just a dumpling with a large filling and a thin skin.
The Rangers have void shields, and carrier-based aircraft can basically not break their defense.
The speed of the mecha is very fast, not inferior to that of a space fighter.
Whether it was the Rangers' long-range attacks, or flying at high speed and slashing with the ship-cutting swords, the losses of Lidadas Capital's space fighters increased rapidly.
Across the battlefield, it was like brilliant fireworks were blooming.
Each firework represents the explosion and destruction of a space fighter.
It could also be intercepted space missiles and space torpedoes.
The escort fleet and the frigates' dense short-range defense firepower network interweave rays of destruction around them.
These small energy ray attacks do not pose much threat to warships, but if they hit carrier-based aircraft, it would be a disaster.
There are also a large number of rapid-fire kinetic cannons that continuously fire kinetic shells, relying on numbers to block the area ahead. Once enemy space fighters fly into this area, they will soon face the fate of being destroyed.
Hundreds of thousands of Lidadas Capital's carrier-based aircraft units flew out like bees, but they failed to stop the Galaxy Defense Task Force strike group for a few days, and basically lost more than half of them.
The morale of the remaining space fighters had completely collapsed. Even if they were forced to fly out of the hangar, they were still fishing on the periphery and did not dare to take the initiative to attack.
The defending forces were completely using the lives of these space fighters to delay the attack speed of the task force strike group.
But after a few days, these space fighters suffered too much damage and basically could no longer pose any threat to the Galaxy Defense Group's fleet.
And the remaining pilots were not stupid either. They simply left the battlefield and wandered outside the battlefield.
Without space fighters, the carrier-based aircraft units of the task force strike group did not take the initiative to attack. They flew around the fleet, intercepting some space missiles and torpedoes that had managed to cross the frigate's defense line.
Inside the Sky Fortress defense line command center, the officers of Lidadas Capital here were now pale.
Some people pray constantly, while others have many other thoughts in their minds.
These planets of Lidadas Capital were only recovered a few years ago, although they are all under the banner of Lidadas Capital.
But the Lidadas Capital hundreds of years before the warp storm is different from the Lidadas Capital today.
The upper class has rebelled and turned into warlords, so how much loyalty do you expect from the middle and lower classes?
