The short-range defense core module needs no further explanation.
This module is equipped with short-range defense space torpedoes, space missiles, carrier-based aircraft, and even weapons that have an offensive effect on mechas.
Finally, there is the newly added genetic warrior strike module.
This is thanks to the current way the Galactic Defense Group uses genetically modified warriors and the achievements made by genetically modified warriors on the interstellar battlefield.
Therefore, the latest Excellence-class battlecruiser is also equipped with more genetic warrior troops.
Here, you can cooperate with the front-line assault fleet, such as the assault boats released by the destroyer, equipped with transmission beacons, and transmit them directly to the enemy ships.
Overall, the combat effectiveness of the Excellence-class battlecruiser is even stronger than that of the Phantom-class battlecruiser.
As both are fifth-generation technologies, the ships’ weapons and marine equipment are basically the same.
But the Excelsior-class ships are larger and have an additional module.
In addition to the Excellence-class battlecruisers, this time there are other new ships.
Among the types of warships of the Xingyuan Saints, there are only two types: battlecruisers and escort ships.
Escort ships are capable of undertaking many combat missions, whether it is the medium-range heavy firepower strike capability comparable to that of a cruiser, or the intercepting firepower for forming a defense line, they are both strong enough.
But at the same time, the resources required for an escort ship are even more than those for a cruiser.
The number of planets ruled by the Xingyuan Saints is countless, and they have basically no shortage of resources, and even more than they can spend.
The number of their escort ships is the same as the number of Li Xin's frigates and destroyers.
But the Galaxy Defense Group cannot do that. The Galaxy Defense Group only has a few planets with life and a few star regions under its control.
Because the number of escort ships is small, their powerful role cannot be fully demonstrated.
This time, the new fifth-generation ships still include cruisers.
Fifth-generation cruiser: Loyalty-class cruiser.
In addition, there is the fifth-generation destroyer: the Diligence-class destroyer.
Fifth-generation frigate: initial-class frigate.
The fifth generation of technology is much more powerful than previous ships.
The fifth-generation ship technology has an even greater advantage in attacking the fourth-generation ships than the fourth-generation ships of Galaxy Defense had in attacking the third-generation ships.
The power of the previous Mirage-class battlecruiser can be seen from this.
At that time, the number of Mirage-class battlecruisers had not increased at all.
Now that they have the ability to build their own, even the super-large space dock in the Tianjin Galaxy has built a batch of battlecruisers.
The fifth-generation warships have more advanced equipment in terms of optoelectronic aiming.
The resulting effect is that you can find the enemy faster, lock onto the enemy, and hit the enemy more accurately.
Compared with previous battleships, the concentrated arc main gun may even miss when attacking enemy warships.
Because the distance between them is 600,000 kilometers, any step in the process of discovery, locking, and aiming could be wrong, even by a millimeter, a micron, or even a smaller unit.
No one knew where the arc-shaped main gun had gone.
The fifth-generation Star-Splitting Light Cannon is equipped with a more advanced fire control system and an advanced sighting and observation system.
Greatly improves the weapon's hit rate.
After inspecting the new warship, Li Xin was very happy.
Science and technology are the primary productive forces.
Technology is also the primary combat force.
More advanced warships, this brings completely different effects.
If a war breaks out with Clive earlier, and he has more fifth-generation ships on his side, Li Xin will not give Clive any chance to escape with his fleet.
After the new warships were developed, Li Xin had a clearer plan for the future development of the Galaxy Defense Group.
The first step is to transform the existing warships, or build new warships and send the original warships for storage.
Build new warships to equip your troops.
These two points were carried out almost simultaneously under Li Xin's orders.
The super-large space docks in the Galaxy Defense Group’s home star field are working at full capacity to produce the latest ships.
The most important weapon, the Excelsior-class battlecruiser, can only be built in these super-large space docks in the capital sector.
Others, such as cruisers, frigates, destroyers and so on.
They can all be dispatched to the Yelong Star Region, the Yuyi Star Region, or even the recently acquired Tianlu constellation, and produced here.
The core equipment and key points of the fifth-generation weapons are all produced in the capital star zone.
In the early stages, these technologies still need to be kept strictly confidential.
Unless the scientific researchers at Tianjin 4 have mastered the fifth generation of technology and unlocked the sixth generation of technology.
The construction period of the Excellence-class battlecruiser takes three years, but the construction period of other ships does not take that long.
Now, for the Galaxy Defense Group, if they tighten their belts, they can completely replace all their ships with fifth-generation technology ships.
When the size reaches that of the Galaxy Defense Group or even larger forces, the expansion of the fleet is limited, more due to the issue of manpower.
Li Xin occupied the Tianlu constellation. Although some ships were lost in the last war, they could be replenished soon.
However, replenishing the troops is much more difficult, and this is because he has elite cloning technology, which allows him to replenish them much faster.
Like Duncan and Clive, how slow it was to replenish their fleets after they were lost.
There is only one possibility for a fleet that is forcibly expanded and supplemented, and that is that its combat effectiveness is very poor.
Now the Galaxy Defense Group is building a large number of fifth-generation warships and sending them to the front line for the fleet to replace.
This speed is not slow. In at most ten years, all the fleets located in the Yuyi star region and even the Fornax constellation can be completely replaced.
The remaining fleets in the Capital Star Sector and even the Yeron Star Sector are not in a hurry to change their equipment.
The technological level of other alien civilizations nearby is far inferior to that of the Galaxy Defense Group. The fourth-generation and a half ships have already achieved a significant surpassing effect in combat effectiveness.
Their changes of clothes can come one after another.
The fleet that was refitted on the front line was not wasted and was directly sent to the Yuyi star region for storage.
This is the first time that the Galaxy Defense Group has sealed off a large fleet.
In the past, fleets would basically be damaged in battle before they could be retired.
Some old warships that were severely damaged were sealed in scattered locations.
This time, the Galaxy Defense Group will directly seal up tens of thousands of ships.
The reason why this fleet was not retained was for the purpose of military expansion.
It's very simple. Compared to using these fourth-generation and a half ships to fight, it is better to replace them all with fifth-generation ships and use more advanced warships to fight.
Veterans are sometimes even more valuable than ships.
The veterans of the Bank Defense Group now can be wasted if they are trained.
