Chapter 1293 Meteor Airborne, Assault Landing Battle (7)

Landing operations have always been considered the most difficult type of battle. Whether it is from the sea or descending from the void, it is very troublesome.

Generally speaking, before carrying out a landing operation, it is necessary to first seize air superiority, bombard or bomb the target area, and finally send the assault landing ship into action.

However, the number of warships coming to support is too small. It is impossible to break through the blockade of the enemy cruise ship formation and clear the enemy in low-Earth orbit in a short period of time. For this reason, the only option is to send the assault landing ship first and break through by force.

When the pulse flight ended, the azure planet named Stantum appeared in the porthole, but also appeared in the porthole was an orbital bomber orbiting in low-Earth orbit.

These ships needed to be eliminated, and the Swan immediately bombarded the nearest orbital bombardment ship.

At this time, one assault landing ship after another followed from behind.

Leading the charge are six specially modified light cruisers, including the Swan, which will descend from six different areas of the planet to carry out operations.

The orbital bomber had no self-defense capability and was quickly sunk and fell into the atmosphere, but there were usually one or two cruise ships guarding the orbital bomber, and this time was no exception, as they had already rushed up aggressively.

"The assault landing ship is moving out to carry out the landing operation. I will provide cover for you."

Alyssa ordered the Swan to move forward and stop the two patrol ships, and the assault landing ships of the Whirlpool Federation flew over from the other side of the Swan one after another.

"Rocket launch nest activated, torpedoes fired, forward three, cover the assault landing ship's advance!"

The Swan launched a full-scale missile launch, not caring whether it could hit the target or not, it would just fire first.

Orbital bomber ships are like satellites, there is one at certain distances. It is impossible for the Swan alone to completely clear them out. I can only say, I will try my best.

Originally, this task should have been done by the friendly forces responsible for support, but because the number of friendly forces that came was too small, they had to break through by force.

The situation of the other assault landing ship formations was not very clear, but the Swan, which had undergone several cost-intensive modifications, was almost a dimensionality reduction attack on the orbital bombers and the light cruisers that escorted them.

As long as the main gun hits, it will definitely penetrate a battleship. The secondary gun is not so easy to deal with, and it will not be able to withstand two more hits.

In addition, at this time, Alyssa saw that the hangar door of the Swan was opened without anyone noticing. She knew without thinking that it must be Li Chengxi who couldn't help but go out to join in the fun.

This caused severe damage to the nearby orbital bombardment ships.

The assault landing ships took the opportunity to break into the atmosphere one after another, like countless meteors, and carried out landing operations.

The Swan has not yet gone down and is performing the fire covering mission.

hope everything is fine.

–‐‐——–‐‐——

Retaking Standumo was a very important part of Operation Meteor, but the top brass of the Xuanshui Federation had not thought that it would be as simple as just landing to retake it. After all, this place had been occupied by the Red Maple Republic for two or three months, and it must have undergone a certain degree of transformation.

The mission objective of the assault landing ship is to capture important facilities, energy facilities, stargate control centers and other areas. As for taking back the entire planet?

We have to wait until we take back this galaxy and then slowly wipe out the remaining Red Maple Republic Army on the planet.

The cruise ship formation is maintaining a bombardment with the cruise ship formation of the Red Maple Republic and maneuvering towards the planet.

At this point, the Swan could also give up the task of escorting the assault landing ship and begin preparations for landing.

"Attitude is good, route confirmed, contact with the exosphere in three seconds."

"Put all weapons and equipment in the warehouse and start lowering operations."

The Swan was positioned so that its bottom touched the exosphere, the lowest layer of the atmosphere. This time, it was more relaxed and able to adjust its posture for descent, unlike last time when the Swan almost skipped a step on the exosphere.

"Speed ​​is normal, temperature is normal, and communication blackout is imminent."

As the Swan descended in altitude, the violent air friction caused the bottom of the ship to emit a bright red light, and the radar and communication equipment also failed at this time.

Although this was the second time the Swan had been used for a descent, I have to say that this was not a job I could adapt to.

The rumbling vibrations continued along the hull structure. Everyone on the bridge strapped themselves in with safety belts. It felt like they were sitting in a massage chair and being hammered.

To be honest, even though I knew clearly that the Swan had the ability to penetrate the atmosphere alone, I was still very worried that it would fall apart.

As the intense red light outside the window disappeared, the Swan began to fall freely.

"Communications restored, radar returns to normal."

"Floating engine ready!"

After breaking through the heat barrier, the Swan stopped shaking wildly, and the four floating engines arranged on both sides turned 90 degrees with their nozzles facing downward.

The last time the Swan landed, it was on the seaside of the continental shelf, but this time it was in a completely inland area. Looking down, one could see a large number of crisscrossing mountains and vast forests and plains.

Of course, you can also see the assault landing ships that came down first.

In order to cover them, the Swan was not the last to land, but at least it was in the middle and rear of the team.

The first assault landing ship to come down has probably already reached the ground.

"Altitude, 10,000 meters!"

"Floating engine activated!"

The nozzle of the floating engine gathered countless light spots, which eventually turned into a strong engine light.

Turning it on at this altitude will slow down the Swan further, and the buoyancy engine will only work best when it is below three thousand meters.

And it is obvious that the Red Maple Republic Army on the ground will not let the assault landing ship land so easily.

As the floatation engine was turned on, ion beams and anti-aircraft artillery fire that exploded into large clouds of black smoke in the air became very common and clear.

When the Red Maple Republic landed, the planetary defense system on the planet Stantum was shut down because the jammer was launched in advance. The ion beam could not be activated at all, and the anti-aircraft guns were all manually operated and aimed, so of course the shooting was inaccurate and the firepower density was not high.

But this time when the Cyclone Federation landed, there were no jammers to paralyze the planet's defense system.

During the time that the Red Maple Republic occupied Stantum, it had apparently completely taken over the planetary defense system, and assault landing ships could be seen being destroyed from time to time.

Of course, as mentioned before, assault landing ships are rare, and they will all be installed on the warships below. The purpose is to deal with the artillery of the planetary defense system during the descent.

For a while, artillery fire was exchanged, and flashes of explosions were heard both on the ground and in the sky. The Swan was also hit by several shells. Due to its high altitude and insufficient depression angle, the most it could do was to use the ship's anti-aircraft guns to fight back.

However, the Swan's shield is much stronger than that of the assault landing ship. The anti-aircraft firepower set up against the assault landing ship immediately becomes weak when encountering the cruise ship.

As the altitude decreased, through the bridge, even with the naked eye, one could see the large number of defensive fortifications that the Red Maple Republic had already built.

It seems that fighting on the ground is not any easier than fighting in the void...
