The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

1802. Endless-class super aircraft carrier (Part 1)

The planet Semels was originally one of the largest forge worlds in the outer ring of the galaxy. The reason why it was called the Foundry World at that time actually showed that the main industrial production capacity of the planet Semels at that time came from OEM or the production of some relatively simple parts, but the output was very large.

The population of this planet reached 10 billion more than ten years ago. As a gastropod race, the Semires are extremely powerful and stable. They can directly perform some tasks that humans simply cannot do without the help of machinery. Heavy duty machining work completed.

It can be said that the Semires are all born workers and engineers. If we compare them with the Vathian Zerg, a subordinate of the Fourth Civilization, which is also known for its strong industrial engineering capabilities, the Semels' engineering capabilities are relatively inferior. But the creative ability is even more outstanding.

If we use metaphors, the Vathians are excellent workers, the Semires are excellent foremen, and the Givens and Salarians are excellent engineers.

The Semires were one of the first races to cooperate with the Fourth Civilization. In the beginning, it was Hego Damask II who led the way, which also changed their destiny.

With the technological input from the Fourth Civilization, the Semires people initially reached an agreement with Tang Xiao to cooperate in the research and development of the "Homeland" series of technologies. The Higra Aerospace Group, the first subsidiary of the Fourth Group, and Semire It was established through the cooperation of Si people.

This group is also the first company in the galaxy to start producing kilometer-class battlecruisers that exceed the limits of the Rusan Reform Treaty after the Rusan Reform, and has now become the largest industrial company on the planet Semels.

Hiigara Aerospace Group mainly produces Hiigaran-class battlecruisers, as well as Apocalypse-class light cruisers, Revenge-class destroyers and other "Homeworld" series battleships.

However, many of the battleship designs that Tang Xiao initially handed over to them were outdated. For example, the Higra-class battlecruiser has been discontinued. At present, it mainly produces second-line warships such as stealth fighters, Puppet Man-class drone carriers, and pulse-star frigates for escort fleets.

At the same time, due to overcapacity, Higra Aerospace Group is still mainly undertaking the contract construction of Behemoth-class battlecruisers from Tyron Heavy Industries. After all, in the Navy of the Principality of Dawn, the 1,350-meter-long Behemoth-class battlecruiser is the battleship that consumes the longest time among the battleships.

Then the Hiigaran Aerospace Group is currently preparing to upgrade and modernize existing warships. The completion time of this upgrade plan mainly depends on the release time of "Homeworld 3".

Therefore, the current planet Semels has completely shed its previous status as a parts processing factory. It already has a complete industrial system and can independently build various large warships.

Hundreds of capital ship docks and more than a thousand small and medium-sized warship docks have been built around the planet. The industrial production capacity in the entire Federation of Independent Systems has surpassed the planet Korra IV, becoming second only to Port Parment and Dak. The third largest industrial center of the Confederacy on the planet (formerly the planet Mon Calamari).

In the naval reform of the Confederacy of Independent Systems being implemented by Count Dooku and General Grievous, the planet Semelth plays a very important role. Because in Count Dooku's long-term plan, what he values ​​most and likes the most is the Behemoth-class battlecruiser.

Compared with the diverse composite fleet of the Principality of Dawn, what Count Dooku is planning to build is a powerful fleet with the Behemoth-class battlecruiser as the core.

Of course, this situation is something Tang Xiao is very willing to see. Because as a member of the Masonic Alliance, a mysterious organization he secretly established, the higher the status of Planet Samirth in the Confederation of Independent Systems, the deeper the Masonic Alliance has penetrated into the Confederation of Independent Systems.

In order to further improve the status of the planet Semyers, the blueprint for the Infinity-class super aircraft carrier that Tang Xiao handed over to Newt Gunray was also selected for development and construction on the planet Semyers.

To this end, the planet Semels has also built three new 8,000-meter giant interstellar shipyards, making it possible to build an endless-class super aircraft carrier.

The Endless-class super aircraft carrier was jointly developed by the Trade Federation and the Halo Weapon System Group of the Principality of Dawn. The Trade Federation was responsible for providing the money, the planet Semels was responsible for the personnel, and the Halo Weapon System Group was responsible for the engineers, scientists and technicians.

The design and construction of the Infinity-class super aircraft carrier can be said to be ill-fated. It has experienced two leaks, causing the construction of this type of warship to become an open secret. Moreover, an unknown amount of data leaked out, allowing part of the battleship's design blueprints to be known to another Sith Lord, Darth Tenebrous.

But even so, the Semiers people showed their unique tenacity in this project and continued to advance the progress of the project despite huge difficulties.

After Dr. Halsey was awakened, she was arranged to join the Halo Weapon System Group. She was also assigned to station on the planet Semels for a period of time as a research and development consultant for the Infinity-class super aircraft carrier.

Because the engine system of the Infinity-class super aircraft carrier incorporates some Forerunner technology, and although this part of the technology has been analyzed and provided by the UNSC technology system, to successfully integrate it into the battleship, Hal still needs to be Dr. Akane’s genius knowledge.

Now, with the full support of the Trade Alliance, the development and construction of the Endless-class super aircraft carrier has finally been completed after two and a half years.

The first ship of the Infinity-class super aircraft carrier, the Infinity, is ready to officially enter service.

The Infinity-class No. 2 and No. 3 ships, which started construction eight months and one year and three months later than Infinity respectively, have not yet completed assembly. Among them, the No. 2 ship is expected to complete the final outfitting within 5 months, and the No. 3 ship is expected to be completed within a year, and then officially join the Navy of the Principality of Dawn.

The Galactic Empire attaches great importance to the construction of the Infinity-class super aircraft carrier. During the process, it has continuously sent spies and tried to bribe the local Semires people to continue to steal the secrets of the Infinity-class super aircraft carrier. However, this time, their actions failed.

The Semires are notoriously stubborn, as can be seen from the behavior of their councilor Thunbark-Tura in the original plot, who led the planet to resist the Galactic Empire to the end even if the Federation of Independent Systems was destroyed. First of all, they accept death, and secondly, they have no good feelings toward the Galactic Republic and the Galactic Empire.

Therefore, the agents sent by the Galactic Empire were not able to buy even a Samirth person. And because most of these agents are human beings, they are very conspicuous when walking on the streets of the Samirth planet. Naturally, it is impossible to steal this Samirth person. The top secret of the thinking planet.

And now, the day has finally come when the mystery of the Endless-class super aircraft carrier is unveiled!
