HMS-Hood
The only thing to paint the captains face at the desperate counter attack was a grin, these fools were playing checkers, and they just threw the ace way early. The single nod sealed the fate as the explosive reactions within the torpedos were activated. The High Explosive yields as atoms shattered apart and released energy with the explosions erupting to make the suns brightness look like a joke, everything caught in the blast was incriminated, incriminating ships, fighters, missiles, and debris field. The explosion ending just from the station, enough to shake it like a can. Everything was gone... The now cleared view of the empty battlefield was all that was left on radar and scanner systems. The roar of engines echoed in the cruisers hanger bay as the doors pulled open and fighters began taking off, including 3 painted squadrons, each numbering in 10 planes, followed by other fighters and bombers, numbering a formation of 120 fighters and interceptors, followed by 3 dozen bombers. And two large craft within the bomber formation, Transports.
Radios chimed to life within fighter command of the cruiser. "Lets hope the enemy still has something left shall we."
A1-10 "Ace wing Alchatel, all wings checked in."
B1-10 "Ace wing Blankala, all wings checked in."
C1-10 "Ace wing Colentia, all wings checked in."
E1-90 "Escort wings checked. All planes green."
B1-36 "All bombers green, payloads armed. Ready."
T-1, T-2 "All boarding parties armed and at the ready."
The force roared through the void, yet if in atmosphere would roar like dragons as they flew across space towards the exposed station.
