Mortal Troops don't necessarily need to use the Rhino Troop Transports; it's just a waste. After all, the cost of a Rhino is five tis that of a Walker.
The sa goes for individual rocket nests. Compared to regular rocket launchers, they are larger, heavier, have a greater ammunition capacity, and include a power armor interface. Ordinary soldiers can use them, but they need to be mounted on a vehicle; and they can't fire with just a thought like the Star Warriors can, which greatly increases accuracy.
These pieces of equipnt... I can't say they don't enhance the Phoenix Battle Group at all, but the actual effect is not significant.
Take thermobaric bombs, for instance. The alliance couldn't produce them before, but they could buy them, and they weren't that expensive. Rhino Troop Transporters aren't widespread among Mortal Troops due to cost and efficiency issues, but if they were only used by the Phoenix, with just about thirty people, four would suffice. With such a small demand, it's truly less cost-effective to manufacture than to buy.
The rocket nest, on the other hand, has so utility, not for use by the Star Warriors, but for the alliance's military departnts. By removing the corresponding control systems and installing them on armored vehicles or directly on trucks, vehicle-mounted rocket launchers can be created to enhance the firepower of the artillery troops.
In essence, it's not that the equipnt is inadequate, but without scalability, there's no need to produce it oneself. There are only a little over thirty Star Warriors; what kind of equipnt couldn't be bought individually? It would be uneconomical to spend all that effort setting up a production line just to serve thirty-sothing people.
Of course, as a technological reserve, it is still necessary.
Essentially, the problem isn't caused by technological garbage, but by the scarcity of the Phoenix.
The core reason restricting the increase in the numbers of the Phoenix is partly the number of people and partly the power armor.
Next, what Gu Hang is hoping for is that the last 10,000 points of grace will pay off in the lottery at the 10,000-point level.
At the 10,000-point level, there is a 60% chance of drawing elite-level technology. Together with the Star Warrior Technology restriction, tactical power armor itself is considered elite-level. Overall, the odds are pretty good.
Of course, if he hits that 30% chance for epic-level technology and directly draws the manufacturing technology for sothing like Terminator Power Armor... that would be a bit of a prank, not knowing whether it's a blessing or a curse.
Gu Hang rubbed his hands together, said a little prayer, and clicked to proceed.
The last 10,000 points of grace disappeared like running water, and what they ultimately brought was indeed as hoped for.
[Fourth Generation 'Majestic' Tactical Power Armor]
He struck it lucky!
But soon, the smile that had just spread across Gu Hang's face gradually faded again.
Drawing the power armor technology he wanted was certainly good. Now, among the Phoenix, there are already several new recruits with superhuman organs who don't yet have armor to wear, not to ntion, he had spent 15,000 points of grace to train twenty new Phoenix Newbloods.
These people won't have to worry about having power armor anymore.
But the problem lies in the fact that what Gu Hang drew was the fourth-generation 'Majestic' power armor.
By now, Gu Hang had already cramd once on knowledge related to the Star Warriors.
He also learned quite a bit about the power armor situation.
Currently, the power armor models worn by the Empire's Star Warriors are very diverse, but the chaotic models are approximately developed from so generational baseline models.
The most basic Star Warrior Powered Armor is clearly of nine generations.
However, it's not to say that newer generations are always better. In fact, over the past ten thousand years, not to ntion power armor, even the entire Empire has not only failed to advance in many technologies but has actually regressed.
The chanical Church's scientific research relying mainly on archaeology might not be a joke. Humanity's current level of technology, after the great disruption, is far from the human Golden Age before the establishnt of the Empire; it's even sowhat inferior to the tis when The Emperor was among the people.
Many generations of power armor are still in production today, with only variations in production volu.
For example, the most nurous model of power armor currently in the Empire is the eighth-generation 'Sky Eagle Type', which is what the Phoenix are all equipped with now.
The eighth generation is not the most widespread because it's powerful, but because the technology is mature, mass production is easy, maintenance is simple, and performance is quite decent. These comprehensive factors make it stand out.
The fourth-generation 'Majestic' power armor that Gu Hang just drew, on the other hand, is different. Its performance is excellent, but production and maintenance are difficult. As of now, not many fourth-generation armors remain. In so battle groups with a deeper history, this type of armor is even a 'relic' passed down for thousands of years, worn only by the most outstanding warriors, a symbol of honor.
It is said that so battle groups and Foundry Worlds still have the capability to produce this armor, but the output is probably pitifully small.
Well, now the issue is, Gu Hang can mass produce it here.
Subsequently, it's likely that the entire Phoenix will be equipped with 'Majestic' type armor.
Although it's not a sin, it's... really an eyesore.
But what can be done about it?
Gu Hang deeply sighed.
Could I just let it go unused?
If there's a problem, we'll solve it later.
As for the power armor, the Black Box can churn out two units every month.
That's practically free.
Apart from that, he glanced briefly, the power armor technology, the Alliance had the base technological capacity to pull out production lines and mass-produce it.
All sorts of technologies had been skimd off earlier, such as Ceramic Steel Technology, Compressed Energy Technology, High-energy Anti-Gravity Engine Technology...
Yet, due to the many technical challenges within the 'gigantic' power armors themselves, even having the master machine Black Box, the production lines created will still demand a lot from the people during the manufacturing process.
The difficulty of mass production won't be small. It's estimated that the speed of subsequent self-production would be about three units a month.
Mainly because although the engineering volu is not considered large, it requires too many high-tech workers. Many processes need at least technicians or higher-ranked people to use production machines to forge them.
But as long as it's producible, that will do.
Thus calculated, five units a month, by the ti this batch of Phoenix Newblood has grown up, not only will they have enough to wear, but there will even be a surplus.
The rest can be saved for a sudden increase in soldiers later.
If it really cos to it, secretly sell them. a normal power armor goes for fifty thousand a set, this could sell for at least a hundred thousand a set—if historical factors weren't considered.

Fifty thousand points of grace spent, the changes it brought to the Alliance were quite significant.
Although the technologies drawn out were mostly exclusive to the Star Warriors, less stimulating the economy, it brought strong developntal montum to both military construction and talent cultivation for the Alliance.
Moreover, the Alliance itself still had great potential for developnt to unleash. Apart from Weixing City being the industrial center, in many areas, the Alliance was still in a state of waiting for revival. A vast workforce hadn't been fully utilized; on wastelands, people urgently needed to invest their labor to rebuild their hos.
When Osenia reported to Gu Hang, she said she was confident that by the next Imperial Tax paynt, in a year and a half, she could raise the per capita output of Weixing City to above 3.5; the global per capita output to above 1.
This also ant, based on the current population, the Alliance could have an annual output value exceeding sixty-five million Tax Currency.
Gu Hang was certainly satisfied with this outco; his Pri Minister had promised him a 20% GDP growth goal for two years, what was there not to be pleased with?
What's more, his Mada Pri Minister might have even overlooked the difficulty of fulfilling this promise.
Because the population of the Alliance was bound to grow.
Apart from the policies encouraging childbirth on the native soil, a large number of immigrants from other regions were also inevitable.
During Gu Hang's most recent trip to Korolya III, he brought along a batch of warriors from the Rage Bear Legion, rotating out the troops who had initially been struggling on Korolya III.
Additionally, he dispatched five more garrison divisions, the 21st to 25th, along with the 59th chanical Brigade, and a large amount of ammunition and supplies to Korolya III.
From this point on, the number of soldiers the Alliance had fighting on Korolya III would reach a scale of one hundred thousand.
The given reason was to support the fight of our human brethren, to offer so humble assistance.
But in reality, what Gu Hang did was no different from other powers 'plundering' Korolya III.
I've been helping you so diligently; it's only proper to help evacuate so more refugees, right?
