Escape Part 127

The combat drones were in a perfect formation for the attack. They swarmed out to be able to fire at nearly the same time. With a firing solution that was barely to avoid and also increased the weapons range. That caused them to fly side by side, top and down to each other. They were close now and nearly in the calculated weapons range. The enemy ships lighted up. At once an evasion maneuver was executed. Coming back from it the weapons range was reached. Shots from the aliens missed. The combat drones fired continues bursts following the firing solution. Also the alien fighters lighted up again forcing an interrupt with an evasion maneuver. Another shot from the aliens passed while lot of alien fighter exploded. It was the bigger number which made the firing solution so effective. Still there were alien ships left. But now they were even closer and both sides would have it harder to evade. The combat drones fired again and also the alien ships. However, none of the alien fighters survived, but all combat drones which altered their course now.
