Chapter 647: The Battle of Christophsis (10)

A Wraith Starfighter took off from the Hangar on the Behemoth-class Battlecruiser, but it did not stay in space, but directly activated its Stealth and rushed into Christophsis.

The standard carrying capacity of each Behemoth-class Battlecruiser is 24 Wraith Starfighters. [Note 1] A total of 240 Starfighters rushed into the atmosphere and flew directly over Chaleydonia to join the Air Battle.

After these Stealth Starfighters joined, the Republic Air Force, which was not prepared for the Anti-Stealth work at all, suffered a major blow immediately. More than 70 Starfighters were shot down, and then they returned to the range of the Acclamator-class Assault Ships that landed and used Powerful Radar Tracking Systems to fight against Stealth Starfighters.

However, the small number of Wraith Starfighters do not really plan to compete with the massive amount of Starfighters of the Galactic Republic for Air Supremacy. They just want to ensure that General Whorm Loathsom will not get Dropped Bombs on all day long.

Under the cover of the Wraith Starfighter, about 80 APOD-33 Dropships landed within the Control Range of the Droid Army of the Confederacy of Independent Systems, but there was no further movement.

Whorm was very curious about this, but those Dropships didn't even intend to open the hatch, and Severance Tann would not explain anything to him at all.

When night fell on Chaleydonia, these Dropships took off quietly and scattered towards Chaleydonia without any Air Cover.

At the same time, General Whorm Loathsom's ground forces and Admiral Trench's Fleet were also notified by General Sev'rance Tann, asking them to prepare for battle immediately and start attacking.

...

"...I understand, since the situation on the Space Battlefield is unfavorable, then I have to open up the situation on the ground as soon as possible while we still have some advantages." Anakin Skywalker looked at the Hologram in the Holographic Projection. "I will plan a counterattack after dawn," Anakin said.

"Don't act rashly, Anakin. At least for the time being, it is no problem for our forces to hold the existing position. According to our analysis, these two new Warships of the Separatists are not suitable for Long-Term Combat. Our Sensors have also detected their Warships Missiles are being replenished, so we will fight against this in the next battle. You have to remember that the Republic and the Jedi Order are our backing, and their Small Fleet should not be our hindrance." Obi-Wan Kenobi said earnestly.

"Okay, then you can fight hard on the Space Battlefield, Master." Anakin turned off the Hologram with a perfunctory sentence.

"I think we should listen to your Master, Skyguy. I heard we lost 900 Starfighters in just ten minutes yesterday." Ahsoka Tano sat on a nearby table. She was a very small Youngling, and as soon as she sat on it, her legs hung in the air shaking back and forth.

"If you don't want me to write down your disrespectful evaluation of your Master in the report, then stop calling me by this name, Snips!" Anakin said, "Okay, now we should formulate a ..."

"Plan of attack? Hmph!" Ahsoka huffed to complete his next words.

"Ah, it looks like you've started your studies, Little Padawan..." Anakin said.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, the siren sounded suddenly, and the Radar Soldier on duty immediately shouted: "There has been a change in the Separatist Army! They have left the Station and are heading towards Chaleydonia!!"

Anakin snorted coldly, "I haven't troubled them yet, but they came to the door on their own initiative!"

"I think it's because of the more than 200 Wraith Starfighters that they reinforced from Space before and with Air Power, they started to attack." Captain Rex said.

"Notify all Units to enter the Combat State, Ahsoka, Rex, come with me! Since the Droids have taken the initiative to attack, then we have an opportunity to take advantage of it. We will bring a Commando and penetrate directly into the Enemy's Core!" Anakin beckoned and gave an order.

The sound of explosions soon sounded in the direction of the frontline. This was the firing of the SPHA Heavy Artillery. Soon, more explosions sounded, bombing indiscriminately.

Hundreds of Thousands of B-1 Battle Droids lined up and marched towards the defensive position of Chaleydonia, firing continuously while advancing, Red Blaster Energy rained down, and even the sky was illuminated red.

After Rex and his most Elite Torrent Company were ready, Anakin Skywalker and Ahsoka Tano were ready to go. At this time, the Radar Soldiers in the Command Center suddenly said: "Separatist Dropships detected! There are 80 of them, and they are scattered around Chaleydonia without escort!"

Anakin Skywalker wanted to attack immediately and capture the thief first. He did not doubt that his target was there. Although he also felt a Sense of Crisis in these places, on this battlefield, the Sense of Crisis is everywhere. He just said: "Take off the Starfighters and shoot down all these Dropships! If you can't shoot down or there are other situations, let me know."

"Yes!"

[ Note 1: Regarding the size of those Units in "StarCraft", here I want to explain that because there is no Official Data, it is basically an estimate or a comparison based on Data released by some Unofficial Channels. For example, the Behemoth-class Battlecruiser, although there is no Size Data, there are some things that can be found. For example, the number of crew is 6,000, the carrying capacity of 24 Wraith Starfighters, and the number of Dropships used to carry will not be too small, and they can also transport Hundreds to Thousands of Troops and Equipment. This Data is clearly available, and from these, it can be seen that the size of the Behemoth-class cannot be too small. I forgot where I saw the figure of 1,300 meters, but based on the above, I think this size is more reasonable.

The other thing is about the Hyperion. This is Mengsk's Flagship, but this Battleship was originally a Standard Behemoth-class, belonging to the Terran Confederacy Navy, and was later secretly stolen, so it is not built to Flagship Specs from the ground up. As for the Subsequent Upgrades, no matter how much you transform it, it is impossible to change the structure of a Battleship, right? So I think the Hyperion is also the Standard Size of the Behemoth-class, even if there is a discrepancy, it will not be greater than one-tenth.

Finally, according to the Data I have obtained from all aspects of information, the Minotaur-class is 550 Meters, and the Gorgon-class is 2,500 Meters. Of course, because there is no Official Data to support it, everyone can speak freely. ]
