Description
Giao Long is fucking high, as usual.

Hồng Ma has come. THE battlecarrier Hồng Ma, hull number G-0, indicating a completely new kind of warship. Though technically classified as an airship, this behemoth can go into space via a combination of anti-gravity and acceleration, or dive into super dimension ocean and emerge in another world. The vessel was built as a testbed for FP's "isekai machine" to see if it can actually works, because of that its hull is huge to accommodate the whole set, including a particle accelerator, an industrial center with 6 different alchemy 3D printers, 20 magic fusion reactors as "secondary sources" and the Tesla Sphere, its "heart", carrying the refined piece of soul Hồng Ma herself put inside, which has the same energy output as their sun. It uses magnetohydrodynamic generators to get electricity, then run the superheated plasma through a cooling set to get pressurized steam from liquid Divaenium, the magical element needed for their airships to fly, to operate its turbines. Another part of plasma moves through a second set of cooling system, this one uses air, to superheat and compress it as propellant for the thrusters.

One more reason for why you should not fuck with the United Empire. They took only 9 months and 10 days to finish this monster, modules were made separately then moved by nuclear trains to the assembling site where they were put together inside a magnetic field keeping things afloat. To build Hồng Ma, Giao Long spent around 200 billion USD (1919 value) not only for the ship but for accommodating facilities as well, all came from her pocket money. By builsing one single vessel, Giao created around 300000 jobs for people, built a whole new city just so that workers can reside, and after that, she used the place as Hồng Ma's base. After all, when you have a 4-km-long airship, you need a dedicated dock as nothing existing at the moment can let the thing in.

Hồng Ma is more like a flying fortress than a battleship. Its primary offensive method is vimanas while guns are used as defensive weapons, except for main guns. The vessel's main guns are designed to carry out extremely long ballistic attacks, either to another continent or to the Moon as long as there's a target. They fire shells that contain the United Empire's top secret weapons: Non-radiating positron warheads, a warhead has the yield around 430 megatons. A shell can carry anywhere between 4-12 warheads, and considering they can fly into orbit then reenter independently, the Empire has invented MIRV before they even have ballistic missiles. These guns, called Magnetic Acceleration Delivery (MAD), were built by Giao Long and doctor Nicole Jessica Tesla, Hồng Ma's current chief engineer, as a way to launch satellites into space... or to deliver death to enemies of the Empire. They have an elevation from -10 to +90 degrees, and can be reloaded from any angle within -5 to +70. MADs are stored in quadruple gunhouses that have a bulkhead between pairs, making sure that in case a pair goes south, the other is still operable. All main and secondary turrets have their own laser/electric rangefinders and fire control annalog computers to work independently in case something happens in the plotting room and/or main rangefinders.

For her vimana complement, Hồng Ma carries 800 F1A fighters and 40 BS-ER2 early warning crafts, divided into squadrons of 20 each, a squadron has 4 wings of 5 going in diamond formation. 2 squadrons make a vimana regiment, 2-5 regiments make a division and at the number the ship has, it has for itself a force of 4 divisions. This force alone is a terror to many countries as Hồng Ma can park itself somewhere then launch them all out, the ship does not keep any back as CAP as it leaves such duty to its escorting battle-tenders, Type Bs of Định Quốc-class Juggernaut battleships that have a hangar and flight deck at the stern instead of dorsal stern turrets. Considering Giao is ordering several new "carriers", in thee future there will be even more vimanas in one sortie.

Hồng Ma's ultradense Stalinium armor is the peak of Imperium engineering. By compressing, folding and laminating multiple pure Stalinium armor sheets in extremely high pressure and gravitational force generated by specific gravity manipulators, they can make armor plates several thousand times denser and more durable than its physical thickness. For example, a plate 500 mm thick of ultradense pure Stalinium has the same toughness as 1500 meters of puree Stalinium. In short, Hồng Ma's armor is fucking ridiculously tough. To manufacture them, Giao Long had to order specialized hot plasma cutters and arc welding machines to cut and weeld them, respectively. The process of making these extremely dense plate was not seen beefore, even Imperial battleships only have the density of around 700 times that of normal pure Stalinium.

Giao marked her "ownership" with paintings on the hull. The horned king cobra, called rắn hổ mây in the United Empire, is her emblem and signature. It "flies" abov the Tiên bird, which is Hồng Ma's coat of arms, as a way to say she's the boss and owner. The ship has a pair of eyes painted on its bow as per U Minh's tradition: They believe that by painting eyes on boats, they can see and evade dangers as well as scare off monsters.

Giao Long: "Now that's my beloved Hồng Ma. No kill like absolute overkill."

Hồng Ma: "You need a therapist... forget it, an asylum it is."

-------------------------------

Trivia:
- Hồng Ma is built to be a testbed for Plan G, aka Project Gigaroad, a plan that calls for isekai emigration fleets that can go to parallel universes. As such, the ship is an exploration vessel first and foremost.
- Used mainly as a super-duper ultra carrier and mobile HQ.
- Giao Long originally wanted the ship to transform, but the idea got shot down immediately. Not because it was impractical, but because Hồng Ma herself afraid it would summon interdimensional lawyers with a copyright lawsuit.
- Before you ask, yes, Hồng Ma is a Macross reference.
- Pure Stalinium has the same density as helium, aka 0,0001785 g/cm3. Hồng Ma's ultradense pure Stalinium's density is 3000 times that or 0,5355 g/cm3.
