On the dark ice plain, a massive steel contraption floated in the air, advancing slowly under the propulsion of its rear engines.
Surrounding this giant ship, three smaller steel warships floated nearby, guarding its safety.
The deck of the giant ship was illuminated with lights of varying brightness and colors, outlining lines and indicators on the deck.
A fighter jet was raised from the hangar by an elevator, ready for takeoff, and was towed to the takeoff position by several deck crew mbers.
anwhile, another group of staff connected the landing gear at the bottom of the airplane to the launch track of the electromagnetic catapult.
As a barrier at the tail of the airplane rose, the pilot completed the final pre-takeoff check and gave a ready gesture to the ground crew beside him, while also requesting takeoff from the tower.
The tower quickly approved the takeoff, and with the ground crew's takeoff gesture, the engine at the tail of the fighter jet emitted a bright fla, and it was instantly catapulted out.
As this fighter jet was catapulted out, two other fighter jets waiting at the side of the deck, started their engines, preparing for takeoff.
However, unlike the catapulted fighter jet, these two fighter jets adopted a vertical take-off and landing thod.
After all three fighter jets took off separately, the elevator at one corner of the deck once again raised a fourth fighter jet onto the deck, and in a short ti, completed the pre-takeoff preparation and took off from the deck also using electromagnetic catapult.
The four fighter jets that had taken to the sky ford two two-plane formations, beginning flight training according to the predetermined plan over the entire fleet.
anwhile, inside the tower, several officers were compiling statistics on the results of this takeoff training.
"The catapult launch speed is nearly matching that of conventional takeoff speed, this is an impressive result!" An officer, looking at the statistics from the fighter's preparation in the hangar to final catapult takeoff from the deck, felt quite pleased.
Another nearby officer shook his head, still sowhat dissatisfied, saying: "But the vertical take-off and landing speed is still too slow, even slower than the catapult takeoff. Although it's due to waiting for runway clearance after the catapult takeoff to avoid interference, this speed is still less than ideal!
It's 12 seconds overti from the standard takeoff ti, which entirely wastes the advantage of simultaneously conducting vertical take-off and catapult takeoff; seems like we need to strengthen training in this area!"
"You can't bla the soldiers for this! After all, our country previously had no vertical take-off and landing models, everyone's unfamiliar with it, we're still in the exploration phase, it's acceptable to be a bit slower." The previous officer remained optimistic about this, trying to persuade the dissatisfied officer.
While the two officers discussed, the captain at the side said: "Unfamiliarity ans grasping the ti to beco familiar, lack of understanding requires seizing the ti to understand, and if we haven't figured out an effective takeoff and landing process yet, then practice more!
Unfamiliarity is not an excuse, our ti is running out. At our current speed, we'll reach German territory within a week and establish contact with European countries, we must quickly form a combat deterrent."
Hearing the captain, the officers stopped arguing and began discussing how to formulate a new training plan.
The captain, however, worriedly glanced at the map in front of him, feeling anxious about the upcoming contact with European countries.
They were currently on the way to Europe. Besides their aircraft carrier and the three Guardian Land Ships that ford the fleet later with Lucia, there were also two transport Land Ships manufactured using 3D printing equipnt with resources provided by Lucia during their stay there.
These two transport Land Ships carried two infantry regints organized by Lucia, combined with one infantry regint from the Fla Country aboard the land carrier, forming exactly a brigade's force.
They were the total reinforcent forces dispatched by the Fla Country and Lucia to the European Battlefield.
Nevertheless, this reinforcent fleet to the European Battlefield was sowhat peculiar, as only the Fla Country's land carrier and the three Guardian Land Ships were equipped with Anti-gravity Devices.
This led to the situation where, during the Fla Country's aerial combat training, the Lucians could only watch enviously as the Fla Country flew in the sky while they followed on the ground.
Of course, the Lucians inquired eagerly with the Fla Country, after all, anyone would understand the appeal of floating ships once they saw the floating fleet.
However, the Fla Country dismissed the Lucians' eagerness and admiration by claiming that the technology was still in the experintal and testing stage and classified.
The land carrier's captain firmly rembered Chen Xin's instructions. While he didn't keep the existence of anti-gravity technology a secret, he rigorously protected the anti-gravity devices themselves, guarding against any foreign intelligence intrusion.
The Lucians found this helpless, eventually giving up on prying into the anti-gravity technology, rely reported the situation to their officials and higher-ups, leaving it for their top officials to find a thod to discuss this matter with the Fla Country. As soldiers reinforcing the European Battlefield, they turned their focus more on how to fulfill the reinforcent mission.
According to the result discussed by the two countries' top officials before departure, this brigade's force was not directly intended for the direct battlefield of the European Battlefield. They were more to serve as an educational force, helping European countries form armies capable of resisting alien creature invasions, using European countries' own forces to hold off the alien creatures invading from the diterranean.
As for the problem of insufficient combat power, it was not an issue with the Fla Country's 3D printing equipnt.
Previously, when at Lucia, the land carrier used resources provided by the Lucians to not only manufacture two transport Land Ships but also produced Exoskeletons and Electromagnetic Rifles that could equip all three regints, fully outfitting this force.
European countries had long received notifications from the Fla Country and Lucia, prepared with resources and mining areas, waiting for their arrival to provide weapons and equipnt effective in killing alien creatures.
As for the European countries, the land carrier's captain didn't have a good impression. Over the years, the European countries' targeting and discrimination against the Fla Country never stopped.
Certainly now they're begging for the Fla Country to rescue them, but the captain had learned quite a bit from the onboard diplomats about the faces of these old European countries, whether they might secretly create obstacles or pull any tricks, are unknowns that must be guarded against.
As the entire fleet's commander, the captain must make every preparation for this.
