As for the second wave, they were mainly tasked with leading the remaining Wakandan elite warriors to deal with the Dark Order grunts under Thanos.
Their mission was equally important.
According to intelligence, the Dark Order grunts under Thanos were mainly divided into three types.
The first type was the Chitauri Army, the second was the Sakaraan Mercenaries, and the third was the Dark Vanguard.
Among them, the Chitauri Army came from the Chitauri planet.
The Chitauri were a technologically advanced and cold-blooded race, somewhat resembling a combination of reptiles and humans.
Stark had a lot to say about this.
Because after the Battle of New York, the Damage Control Department he had personally established found a large number of Chitauri soldier corpses in the ruins of New York.
After research, it was discovered that the Chitauri soldiers had electronic neural networks similar to a Honeycomb Structure embedded within them. These networks allowed for real-time communication and sharing of battle intelligence during large-scale combat, enhancing their battlefield awareness.
This meant they didn't need to deploy additional detection equipment before a battle, allowing for rapid battlefield assessments during combat.
This was well-suited for the Chitauri Army's invasion and blitzkrieg tactics. Deploying detection equipment during an invasion would require significant preliminary work.
However, a disadvantage of this system was that the Chitauri soldiers could suffer heavy casualties in the early stages.
But according to the research analysis, the lowest-ranking Chitauri soldiers were likely a mass-produced "cannon fodder".
As long as the war objectives were achieved, the higher-ups wouldn't care how many of them died.
Thinking about it this way, this design wasn't difficult to understand.
And the terminal for this honeycomb thinking network was located inside the Chitauri Mothership.
Therefore, when Stark took a Nuclear Warhead through the space-time wormhole and launched it into the Chitauri Mothership, all the Chitauri soldiers "went offline" as the mothership was destroyed.
In addition, in terms of hardware, the Chitauri soldiers also possessed Exoskeleton Armor that was completely integrated with their bodies, making them a form of half-mechanical, half-biological beings.
In the biological part, many residues of unknown chemical agents were detected.
This indicates that the Chitauri soldiers should have undergone body development using chemical agents, which gave them greater strength and agility.
However, it is uncertain whether this was a temporary "stimulant" taken before combat, or a long-term permanent enhancer.
But in any case, from the image analysis of that time and the subsequent biological structure dissection results, the physical strength of each Chitauri soldier was equivalent to the peak of an ordinary human!
At least comparable to Black Widow and Hawkeye!
So, if a fight breaks out, the best method is to disperse and conduct small-scale special operations.
Try to break into the Chitauri Mothership and destroy the mothership's terminal, and you can destroy the Chitauri soldiers belonging to that mothership, which is much faster than fighting them one by one.
And this kind of combat was the specialty of Captain America, Black Widow, Hawkeye, and others.
They were professionals at infiltration.
In addition, research on the Chitauri Army corpses from the Battle of New York revealed that the Chitauri Army likely had a hierarchy and different branches similar to Earth's military.
For example, there were low-ranking Chitauri infantry with energy rifles, high-ranking infantry with energy cannons, air force squads operating flying vehicles, and elite combat squads with commanders.
This information was also extracted by Stark from the Damage Control Department and the Avengers' database and sent to the combat wristbands of Captain America and the others.
Another thing to note was the presence of large, semi-mechanized, whale-like reptile beasts within the Chitauri Army – the Leviathans.
Their surface was covered in bone plates and scale-like strong alloy armor plating, capable of withstanding small missile bombardments. The mechanical fins on their underside contained the Chitauri's anti-gravity flight system, which was predicted to give them the ability to fight in space.
In addition, they were also a large troop transport vehicle, with numerous openings in the scales on their underside that could launch Chitauri soldiers for landing.
If Captain America and the others wanted to conduct special operations, they had to avoid the Leviathans as much as possible, and not get entangled with them.
Once they were entangled, they would have to face the attack of hundreds or even thousands of Chitauri soldiers!
In addition, according to the "Travel Diary," there was also a biological weapon in the Chitauri Army called the "Chitauri Giant Ape." They generally had a size of five or six meters, and had also undergone semi-mechanical modifications. Not only were they incredibly strong, but they also possessed extremely strong defenses, making them a force to be reckoned with.
However, the Chitauri Giant Apes did not appear in the previous Battle of New York, so they were unable to specifically analyze their data, and could only let them be careful.
The second type: Sakaraan Mercenaries.
These were the indigenous inhabitants of the junk planet Sakaar, a humanoid insect lifeform with four fingers, and were hermaphroditic. They were hatched by the queen in the honeycomb structure.
Sakaar was the fourth satellite of the Taiyou star in the Fornax stellar system-Taiyou planetary system. Due to certain special reasons, there were many cosmic passages distributed on the surface of the planet. Therefore, a lot of garbage from all over the universe would be thrown onto this planet through these passages, either intentionally or unintentionally.
Gradually, Sakaar became a "junk planet."
A junk planet sounded very dirty, but it was a treasure trove for many cosmic scavengers.
A lot of junk from advanced civilizations, if you pick through it and fix it up, becomes treasures in lower civilizations, and can be sold for a fortune.
Like after the Battle of New York, the Chitauri Army left behind war wreckage. Toomes picked it up and fixed it, and didn't he create the mechanical wings and become the Vulture?
His subordinates also created many bargain-basement energy weapons, making him rich overnight.
As natives, they naturally hated this, so they constantly fought these scavengers, killing each other.
Later, a being called the Grandmaster arrived.
He carved out a territory on Sakaar and established the Sakaar Arena. Under his recommendation, the Sakaarans became cosmic mercenaries, the Sakaraan Mercenaries.
Later, the Sakaraan Mercenaries accepted Thanos's long-term employment, helping him find the Infinity Stones (some of them appeared when Star-Lord obtained the Orb in Guardians of the Galaxy 1), and even conquering other planets.
Because they fed on the corpses of other planets' life forms and used their corpses to breed parasitic eggs, they loved to invade.
The Sakaraan Mercenaries developed bio-weapon technology, integrating various devices into their Exoskeleton Armor. Their common weapons included the Necroblaster Rifle, Necrosword, and V-Wing Flyer.
