Chapter 502 Astartes Equipment 6
Nak waited patiently for the Astartes, and only after obtaining various individual weapons one by one did he lead Tiberus and others towards another weapons rack.
Everyone's eyes followed closely, full of anticipation and excitement.
When they came to this new weapons rack, what they saw was jaw-dropping. Rows of majestic heavy artillery and heavy machine guns were neatly arranged on it.
From small heavy machine guns that are compact but powerful, to huge heavy anti-aircraft machine guns; from flexible and convenient individual rocket launchers, powerful howitzers, to cannons known for their powerful firepower.
Even the terrifying large-scale earthquake cannons and volcanic cannons are fully available.
Looking at the dazzling array of high-powered thermal weapons on the weapon rack, the Astartes warriors, who were already carrying more than a dozen guns, had their eyes flashing with an unconcealable desire.
For them, these weapons are not only sharp weapons in battle, but also symbols of strength and glory.
The scale and richness of the weapons warehouse of the entire Star Army are beyond imagination.
The various weapons stored here are like freely movable mountains of gold and silver, with high value and huge quantity.
Even within the vast empire, it would be difficult for several galaxies to work together to piece together such a large number of sophisticated weapons and equipment.
Nak stared at the heavy weapons in front of him, turned to look at Tiberus and others beside him, and solemnly instructed:
"Everyone, there are many types of heavy weapons here, but please note that due to the special nature and strategic significance of the earthquake cannons and volcano cannons, each regiment can only take away a maximum of thirty.
As for other types of weapons, you can take as many as you want. Make sure your regiment is equipped with the most suitable heavy weapons to maximize its combat effectiveness on the battlefield!
"Yes." Tiberus and others nodded respectfully in response. Except for earthquake cannons and volcanic cannons, each regiment could take away only thirty pieces, and the rest of the heavy weapons could be taken away as many as possible.
What's worse, some regiments were so small in number that they simply did not have the ability to carry away so many heavy weapons at once.
In desperation, they had no choice but to humbly ask Nak for help, begging him to lend a hand and transport all kinds of heavy weapons needed for a 3,000-man regiment to the Jesta system.
Nak agreed to this request without hesitation. According to the original plan, after these Astartes were strengthened and supplied with weapons and equipment, he would lead these Astartes Chapters back to the Jesta System.
In this case, helping them transport some weapons and equipment is just a piece of cake and not a difficult task at all.
It is worth mentioning that the warships of the Imperial Combined Fleet captured by the Star Army in this great victory, whether they are the battle barges of the Astartes Regiment or the strike cruisers, have now arrived in the Jesta system and are undergoing meticulous and comprehensive transformation by the logistics and technical departments.
The speed of navigating through the subspace is dwarfed by that of dimensional teleportation and is incredibly slow.
Not only that, this method also involves many unpredictable risks and unexpected situations, which makes it difficult to feel at ease.
The performance of the Imperial warships in all aspects is far inferior to that of the advanced warships of the Star Navy.
Only after a series of rigorous and in-depth transformation projects will they be able to meet the strict usage standards of the Star Army and truly help the Astartes Chapter to unleash even greater combat effectiveness.
Nak led Tiberus and his group to a spacious plaza in the warehouse, where impressive Apocalypse tanks and missile launchers were neatly parked, along with massive and powerful Earth Dreadnought mechas.
Nak stared silently at the steel behemoths before him, then turned to look at Tiberus and the others behind him. He noticed a fiery glint of desire in their eyes, as if these weapons were the key to their victory.
Nak cleared his throat and said to everyone in a calm and firm voice:
"Everyone! After careful consideration, Captain Gray and his team have decided to provide each of your regiments with a certain amount of powerful equipment support.
Specifically, each of your regiments will be eligible to take away a full 500 Apocalypse Tanks, an equal number of 500 missile launchers, and ten incredibly powerful Earth Dreadnoughts! This will undoubtedly greatly enhance your combat effectiveness."
Having said that, Nak paused for a moment, looked at the flushed faces of Tiberus and the others, and then added:
"However, regarding the issue of tank and dreadnought pilots, you still need to rely on yourselves to train and select them.
It is worth mentioning that our Apocalypse Tank is extremely versatile. Whether it is a Space Marine or a well-trained ordinary soldier, as long as they master the relevant skills, they can skillfully control it and gallop on the battlefield.
However, for the Terra Dreadnought, the situation is different. The requirements for the pilot are relatively strict, and only those with strong mental strength can be competent for this arduous task.
Because controlling such a large and powerful war machine requires not only superb operating skills, but also an indomitable willpower to cope with various extreme situations."
Finally, Nak emphasized, "Unlike the simple and crude cast iron Dreadnought coffins you are familiar with, our Earth Dreadnoughts are not just containers for severely injured Space Marines.
To truly unleash its power, it requires excellent pilots. Therefore, please be very strict when selecting and training pilots to ensure that only the most elite personnel are selected to control these steel beasts."
"Does this Apocalypse Tank have a shield?" Argento, Zuckerberg and others stroked the thick armor of the Apocalypse Tank and asked Nak.
Nak looked at these war machines and confidently responded to Argento's doubts:
"Yes, the Apocalypse Tank has triple shields: a field shield, a plasma shield, and a small void shield. It can withstand intense artillery bombardment and charge against the enemy's dense firepower, providing you with powerful fire support."
In fact, even if the Apocalypse Tank did not have this triple shield, it was still an extremely powerful heavy tank. It could destroy three Leman Russ tanks with only minor injuries when under siege, not to mention that under the protection of the triple shield, it could exert even more powerful power.
