Star Wars: Conquest

Chapter 10: 10 Research Projects



SA-32A Starfury "Thunderbolt", the new main fighter of EarthForce from Babylon 5.

Jon Roberts also discovered that the SA-32A Thunderbolt that can be researched and manufactured now is the latest model and has pulse cannons for ground attack.

Moreover, if we get the stealth system from the Wraith fighter, it will become a truly terrifying killer-a stealth fighter!

Although the current technology system of the mothership belongs to "Homeworld", if we want to build a Thunderbolt fighter, you must overcome the gap in production technology and technology between "Homeworld" and "Babylon 5", but Jon Roberts believes that this difficulty must be overcome!

As a technology product of the human system, the resources needed to digest and analyze the technology of the Earth Alliance in "Babylon 5" should still be under control.

Seeing that the Commander had already made up his mind, Skylar didn't continue to pester him. As a subordinate, he needs to put forward his opinions and concerns and then let Jon Roberts make a decision. Now all he had left was to obey.

Jon Roberts called Hera Clement and asked, "Now in the warehouse of the Mothership, there is also three modular building for the Engineering Research Institute? How large is it?"

Clement replied: "Considering the dangers of engineering research and many experiments requiring a lot of space, the mothership carriers a modular scientific research space station. It can accommodate about 500 experts. These experts can do experiments and research are carried out inside."

"Give instructions to the people in the engineering department to start building these engineering research space stations immediately, and it would be best to start the operations today!" Jon Roberts ordered.

"Yes, Sir!"

Jon Roberts opened the character awakening database of the Mothership and began to search for suitable candidates in it. Among the elites, he found ten engineering experts, woke them up and called them to bridge.

The ten experts, six females and four males were all between 30 and 40 years old. When they saw Jon Roberts, they saluted very respectfully, and the leading female expert said, "Hi, Commander. My name is Lydia Clarke, an expert in energy science. This is Dr. Kara Grant, an expert in mechanics, this is Han Yan, an expert in computer science, this is Dr. Meng He, an expert in physics, this is Wu Jian, expert of everything medicine, this is Seto Mira, an expert in material science, also Dr. Jessica Gray genetics expert and her assistant Hade Turner will be in charge of bioengineering. The other two are Alex Owen is an expert of robotics and Jason Davidson is an expert all things deal with weapon design."

Jon Roberts was also polite and directly assigned tasks to each of them. "I need you to start the research on for projects at the same time. One is the infrared laser weapon, the next is the SA-32A Starfury "Thunderbolt", the next is the Orca from the files under " EVE", and lastly, the mining ship from "BSG". What are the requirements? I will try my best to get them satisfied."

Lydia Clarke frowned and thought for a while and said: "The research on infrared lasers... requires a physics laboratory. It is best to equip me with at least 30 people majoring in physics. But the ships..."

She passed the data around to the others, "What do you think? Seto Mira, Alex Owen and Dr. Kara Grant."

Seto Mira looked at the ships in question, with Alex and Kara, and shook their heads slightly, "There is one technology that we need to research and that is the pulse cannons. Although it is not impossible to overcome this problem, it will take two months. Alex, Dr. Kara and I together, let's get together and do some preparatory work first, in the initial staffing we are going to need 100 mechanical and material majors are enough. After that, I will propose more personnel and material requirements one after another."

"What time frame are we looking at?" Jon Roberts asked.

"The complete data is here, so the research and application of infrared laser weapons should be completed within three weeks." Lydia Clarke replied.

"It's about two weeks for the Thunderbolt. Although the data is complete, it will take that long to research, implement, and manufacture except the main guns, the mining ship will take three months, and the Orca will take six months." Dr. Kara Grant said.

"I will fully cooperate with personnel and supplies; each team will get a separate space station to work out of. Thanks to you." Jon Roberts nodded and spoke.

"I will make a list of requirements for all projects." Lydia Clarke said.

No matter where it is, scientific research is labor-intensive and time-consuming activities... Seeing the long list of materials constantly appearing on the screen, Jon Roberts maintained a smile on the surface, but his heart was bleeding.

Now the colony has finally begun to improve and has some material reserves, and now it is all thrown to the scientific research team with a snap.

...

The Outer Rim of the Galaxy, the Western Territory, the Moddell Sector, and Hyperspace.

"It's about time to jump out of hyperspace, it's time to wake up, my dear." On one of the XS-800 Light freighters, a human woman controlling the ship said to the pilot next to her.

Dozing off in the driver's seat was a man in his mid-thirties who shook his head and said, "I'm really starting to miss Corellian Brady, and I have to go home and get a good night's sleep after finishing this order. Think, um, at least five days."

"The Corellian galaxy is not a place where low-level people like us can live, Rorr Oovo. I prefer it now, free and unrestrained." The woman walked over and kiss her lover on the forehead.

"The damn machine has a problem again!" There was a curse from the rear cabin, and then there was a loud bang. It should be that someone kicked the machine, and then a Torgruta came out.

The Torgruta looked like a being with predator teeth. This is a hunting nation. Even if they joined the Galactic Republic and enter the interstellar era, they will be more engaged in the work of slaves.

"What happened?" Dassaa." Rorr asked back.

"Ah, there's no big problem, it's just that we'll die. Felissia, you should be able to see the fifth, sixth, and seventh indicator lights on your left blinking abnormally, right?" The torgruta said angrily.

The woman looked back, and immediately cried out, "Oh my God! The hyperspace shunts are not responding! How could this happen!" She hurriedly operated on the console, but it was to no avail.

"Well, now we can only hope that we won't be torn apart by physical phenomena when we leave hyperspace. If this thing malfunctions, it is impossible for us to start another hyperspace jump. So, if we hadn't gone through nine lifetimes of luck now, if something goes wrong during the jump, it's..." Before Dassaa finished speaking, the spaceship left hyperspace.

If you look outside, you will see that the spaceship appears in space almost instantly from scratch.

After a violent shock, they finally stabilized that spacecraft. Rorr looked at the huge monster in front of him, and murmured, "That's man-made..."

"The Pride of Hiigara... what is this!" Felissia was stunned when he saw the terrifying scene in front of her.

It can be seen on the radar that a huge crescent-shaped spacecraft is slowly moving in the geosynchronous orbit of the planet. The ship was so massive that all they could see from the portholes of their XS-800 Light Freighter was an endless was of metal!
