Ressuply vessel Milchkuh[]
Resupply vessel Milchkuh is a "Fleet of Fog" reincarnation of WWII German Type XIV U-boat. It is a large and pretty slow submarine that has no torpedo tubes or proper guns. It's not clear, whether she even has the AA batteries that were present on its prototype.
As far as we know, resupply vessel Milchkuh doesn't have a Mental Model of her own. And considering her commander's politics, even if she is qualified to have one, she'd be forced not to use it.
Milchkuh's main purpose is rearming Seehund drone submarines and providing them (and possible U-2501 herself) with on-spot repairs. Since this submarine needs to remain in one place for prolonged period of time in order to provide her services, she always stays quite some distance away from the battlefield - she's a sitting duck that isn't even capable of fighting back on its own.
While it is for all intents and purposes she is unarmed, Milchkuh has a decent Wave-Force armor. However, that was not enough to protect her from the overpowered Super-Graviton Cannon which I-401 used to snipe her.
With the destruction of Milchkuh, U-2501 and her fleet of Seehund drone submarines lose a lot of their offensive power as U-2501 herself is not designed to rearm Seehunds as will be very ineffective if she even can do that. That, though, was not enough to stop U-2501's captain Zordan Stark from going after I-401.
Trivia[]
- Milchkuh is the only "Fleet of Fog" vessel seen so far that is unarmed.
