An Unscientific Mechanic

"The enemy fleet is expected to enter the fire range of the dock in 3 hours, and the federal army has sent a dispatch request." In the central cic of the giant armed colonial ship SDF-class lead ship MACROSS, the correspondent reported to the captain.

The central cic has three circular rings of communicators. On the fourth highest floor, there are wartime seats for senior officers and fleet commanders. The center of the cic is a huge spherical holographic projection. Yes, it is a copy of the Battle Frontier of the year. However, it is different from the original one. In the upper core area of ​​CIC, it is the bridge of the ship. There are 8 operators in the bridge, including the captain and the in-ship communicator. When the bridge is activated, the full performance of the ship can be exerted only when the bridge is activated.

"Understood, carry out the departure procedure, the whole system is online, and finally the self-inspection begins." The captain put the pipe in his mouth contentedly.

"Captain! Smoking is prohibited in the bridge!" The captain shrank his neck when he heard his wife's roar.

"Isn't this ordered yet..." The captain only dared to press in a low voice...

"Captain, the system self-check is complete, all green."

"Advance slowly, sail macro!" The captain put the pipe back into his arms.

"The dock control confirmed the sailing signal, the fixed lock was released, and moved forward at a slow speed." The helmsman confirmed the signal from the dock and the unlocking of the fixed lock that fixed the hull, and deduced the throttle valve. Although it is a fortress-type battleship with an astonishing size of 20 kilometers, its actual operation method is closer to the operation method of the new federal MA, rather than the steering method of conventional warships.

"Captain, the hull has left the dock and is heading to the jump safe area."

"Well, it's really a long time to leave the port... and this departure speed has exceeded 300 meters per second to compress the time to about 60 minutes. For the Magellan class, we will be shot at this departure speed..."

"Captain, this is a giant warship with a distance of 20 kilometers, please act urgently."

"The main reason is that it's too exciting to watch the scene outside the ship pass by at a speed close to the speed of sound. Next time, let's go on a regular voyage... Bah, bah, this ship doesn't need to go into the dock again." The captain tied the safety net bring. "The whole ship, prepare for battle, block the isolation gates in the ship, activate the nano-robots, charge the naval guns, charge the jump engines, helmsman, and the timing of the jump is up to you."

"Understood, the hull accelerates, enters the jump speed, the jump engine is charged, 15 seconds before the jump."

"...For the glory of the unfallen Zeon!" The Zeon fleet looked at the shipyard in Jupiter's orbit, ended its inertial navigation, and began to re-accelerate.

Then……

The armed colonial ship Macross broke away from the jump 150 kilometers ahead of the Kilian SS.

"What kind of monster is that! The ms team is dispatched, with nuclear warheads! The fleet is ready for battle!" The colonel commander of the remnant party of the SS ordered. Looking at the comparison between the enemy ship and our ship, the colonel didn't want to say anything, the size difference was 50 times Ah... "How long will it take for the naval guns and missiles to be ready for launch?"

"The missile can be launched after 30 seconds, and the naval gun needs 5 minutes to compress the particles."

"After the preparations for the missile launch were completed, the fleet fired a salvo to prepare the marines on the Espanyol and the Dutchman. All members of the Bloody Mary left the ship, accelerated at full speed as planned, and hit the enemy ship."

"yes."

"Enemy ship, the battle formation is unfolding, the energy inside the ship is rising, and the naval gun is charging."

"Understood, follow the plan and conduct actual combat tests. The gn field, i-field and neutron jammers are all shut down, right?"

"It's confirmed that it's shut down. Now, only the damage control system of nanorobots is online. But Captain, is it really good to use armor to carry out shelling? And the enemy ship is likely to use nuclear warheads..."

"The purpose of the test is to force the tactical nuclear warhead..." the captain said with a sigh of relief. "Don't worry, no one will die. There are only 8 of us on this ship. Even if the armor doesn't hold it, it is 3 kilometers away from the nearest explosion center, and there are so many internal armors and the insane armor protection of the core area. , we don't mind."

"No... I just think it's stupid to carry a nuclear bomb..."

"I think so too, but some people don't trust the defense capabilities of this ship. This is the only way to let them understand that this ship is indestructible."

"I think I feel very safe when I see the outer armor of this ship calculated by hundreds of meters, and the hundreds of turrets and thousands of anti-aircraft turrets..."

"Who said no..."

"The enemy ship, MS group released, detected fission reaction, the enemy plane carried nuclear warheads, the number is unknown."

"In the first stage, the M-shaking operation begins. The firepower of the whole ship remains on standby, and the whole crew is in a state of attack."

"The enemy plane launched missiles, the number of bombs is 48, 1 point before impact."

"5 seconds before impact."

Everyone held onto the armrests of their seats tightly.

"Bounce!" But there was no huge shock as imagined.

"Damage assessment, port side front, outer armor damage, slight...has been repaired. The repair was completed when the drone didn't come to shoot urgently...Captain..." The damage control chief took off his helmet, a little dumbfounded. I think this kind of missile salvo was enough to threaten a squadron back then. If one is not careful, the squadron will be wiped out. I didn't expect it to be repaired in 5 seconds now?

"The enemy ms group is approaching, should we maintain the status quo?"

"Keep the status quo, hold on."

"Enemy plane, rocket launch, first wave, 25 rounds, 4 nuclear warheads, 10 seconds before impact."

"For the impact situation, the heat dissipation of the laminated armor is the largest."

21 small explosions erupted all over the port side of the hull, followed by 4 large explosions on the port side. A large number of facilities on the surface of the hull evaporated, and the hull was also pushed to the right by the huge explosion.

"Compensate for propulsion, stabilize posture, and report damage." The captain looked at the water glass at hand. The explosion of the nuclear bomb could only cause a little ripple in the water glass. It was obvious that the hull had already shaken like an earthquake of magnitude 8. This is The so-called inertial stabilization device?

"On the port side, 4 layers of laminated armor evaporated, the main turret, 371 evaporated, the anti-aircraft turret, 1139 evaporated, the missile launcher, 40 evaporated, radar facilities, and optical observation facilities lost most of them!"

"What about the impact on residential areas?"

"No, the statistics of the intelligent monitoring system show that in all residential areas, the energy supply of the inertial stabilization device was only interrupted for 0.3 seconds when the nuclear bomb hit, and 3 watermelons, 4 glass surfaces and several light bulbs were lost."

"Understood, Admiral Garp, is this result satisfactory?" The captain looked down at the always-on communication on the right hand side.

"Enough is enough, let's send them on their way."

"The damage manager, how long is the repair time for the hull?"

"Fully repaired in 25 seconds."

"Well, the battle of the whole ship has begun." The captain unbuckled his seat belt, stood up from his seat, and spread his hands wide open. "Take them to church."

"What? The enemy ship is still alive?! Under the attack of a nuclear bomb?!" The colonel commander of the remnant party of the SS remnants shook his body again and again like a shocked man. "Where are the naval guns?"

"Totally ineffective!" The gunner next to him was also in a cold sweat. "The long-range view shows that the ship gun was repaired in less than 1 second after it hit the gun! Even if it hit the turret, it was only repaired in about 10 seconds, and the regeneration was over."

"regeneration?!"

"A new turret grows from a turret base! Is this a function that should appear on a battleship?"

"What about the Bloody Mary?"

"The withdrawal of all crew members has been completed and is accelerating."

"I doubt... maybe the quality of the Bloody Mary is not enough to break through the armor of that ship..."

"If it can accelerate to a relative speed of more than 6 kilometers per second..."

"Do you think the federation will give her such a long time to accelerate? And that ship hasn't fired a single shot so far. The federation obviously won't send this ship to die, so the only reason is them." The colonel commander pointed The federal enterprise-level formation monitored more than 300 kilometers away, and the group of civilian ships behind the formation. "A large number of people in the Federation do not believe in the safety of the colonial ship. This is true, so we let the people understand that the ship is indestructible."

"Could it be that...we..."

"That's right... Our self-proclaimed Zeon's last fleet, in the end, helped the Federation clear the last obstacle to the colonization of outer space. The Federation... is really a pig's heart..."

"Port repair completed, targeting complete, firing begins."

In an instant, the macro exploded with firepower far exceeding that of the Zeon fleet.
