Evolution of the Y-Wing 

:(

Or where wing

@@kvaldez46 Igor: *points off* "There." Fredrick: "What?" Igor: "There-Wing." *points forward* "There-Castle." Frederick: "Why are you talking like that?" Igor: "I thought you wanted to." Frederick: "No, I don't want to..." Igor: "...Suit yourself...I'm easy."

"Who" wing

What wing?

To be fair, the B52 is a tad bit older, but the analogy still fits. Rarely does two branches of the DoD agree with each other, but when the Air Force announced plans to retire the A10, rumour has it both the Army and Marines both jointly told the AF where they could shove that particuar idea, especially since both really do treat the A10 even more than the AC130 as 'Angels from above'...

Shannon Warner not a bad comparison, alth

more like F4 Phantom A10s are one trick ponys. . X wing is like an F15 A wing is like a Viper

@@Snuckster2 Bingo, besides, before all the retcons Y-Wing A4 models were supposed to be as fast as X-Wings. Check out ILM's chart for the ROTJ battle sequences. Or just watch the film, Y-Wings keep pace with the other fighters and shoot down two interceptors.

Fairchild-Republic is out of business though

Nice

Damn long time no?

I guess it's a warning. :)

Nope. Didn't see a thing... I swear.

Nope....saw nothing. It was just you :O

I read that as " moving his arms around like a Mandalorian"!

I agree it legitimizes the backstory and history of the craft.

that’s a lot of damage

I can hear that line with perfect clarity

Y-wings are the grunts. X-wings steal the glory.

rogue squadron nice

OG rogue squadron Have a beer comrade

Yeah, the words from the N64 Rouge Squadron game.

Cause they were used by other resistance branches far away from the idiots on d’qar

You know the branches with brains

They weren't really bombers anymore, they were heavy fighters as proton torpedoes were outlawed by the new republic. With the X-wings they used being made before the ban and kept a secret afterwards.

Because there idiots.

@@neptuneplaneptune3367 their*

Underrated comment, gangsta. That’s mostly genius.

The venators found the malevolence and on that fatal day the malevolence shot its cannon and shut the ships all down.

Y wing = Swordfish

Nothing compared to the SMS Scharnhorst in World War I.

KING OF THE OCEAN he was MADE to rule the waves, across THE SEVEN SEAS! To lead the WAR MACHINE! To RULE the waves, and lead the KRIEGSMARINE! The terror of the sea! The Bismarck AAAAND the kriegsmariiiine!

The B-52 has been in service in the USAF since 1955. It's a 65 year old design. The A-10 is 43 years old. If it's a reliable design that can be easily modified and upgraded like the B-52. Or even kept nearly exactly the same like the A-10. All that matters in that case is that it is an effective design for a role that can't be better filled by some other fighter, fighter bomber, attacker, or bomber. That said, a 51 year old y wing is perfectly reasonable.

Ryuondo yes as long as it has the capability to add improvements to an already existing craft there’s no need to get rid of it. Even in war you gotta find ways to save money. And upgrading an already existing craft is cheaper then making a new one from the ground up

Ryuondo I was just talking about how Disney doesn’t innovate in new designs. I love the lore behind the Y wing and it makes sense

@Ryuondo That's all true, but the B-52 is a strategic bomber and the A-10 is a CAS plane, both roles that don't require as rapid improvement as other roles. In the last 50 years, the USAF has gone through 3 generations of fighters, with the F-4 Phantom, then the F-15 Eagle and F-16 Falcon, then the F-22 Raptor. Even if the Y-Wing is still suited to its role as a torpedo bomber, there's no reason the Resistance should still be flying 40-year old X-Wing designs and 30-year old A-wings.

except the last jedi :)

I think it might be a tic of some kind

Nah he never did that before. He did that on purpose

to get comments

He was waving off a fart.

He was directing/guiding in the next commercial. They lack maneuverability on final approach.

Sadly the A10 survives more under heavy fire

Love em both!

In their respective contexts, the A-10 is tougher and much more heavily armed. The Y-Wing is designed to get in quick, hit hard, and then move before anyone can shoot back. The A-10 is designed to loiter for a while, raining death from above until it runs out of fuel. They're very different vehicles designed for different purposes. The Y-Wing is analogous to a torpedo bomber, the A-10 is a ground attacker/CAS plane.

They are the same thing but from different universes

@@Toon_Lucario Same thing, only different 😂

This is the way

YEET!

69th like

dude i was complaining about that in TFA, like why are they sending a bunch of xwings to do a Ywings job at starkiller? those xwings shoulda been flying escort

@@ttmstudios6660 I mean y wings are pretty slow and x wings can do a pretty decent job at bombing/hitting targets

Well, the bombing run accomplished the mission, but lost every Star Fortress. I was annoyed at the apologists that tried to explain why Y-Wings weren’t used instead.

@Dread StarZ but you figure most of those bombers didn't even make it to the objective and the Y-Wing can actually target things like weapons and launch bays so it doesn't have to destroy the whole thing to cripple it. Feel like it could have done more with less and less people would have died flying fragile bombs over a giant space craft carrier.

@@ericp1139 It was. Republic demilitarization (what I remind was state before prequels) banned photon torpedoes making new Y-Wing useless (repurchased as escort fighter, which it initially was) and old variants were already old during OT. Legal StarFortress was meant to be bad design using shitty photon bombs, in order to make clear scale of Republic weakness. If I remember correctly X-Wing they use was last model before the ban, so it could be repurchased to use proper weapon. But prequel fanboys of course think that New Canon is only two movies, so they don't know that 0_0

The Republic only had a navy at the direction of the Sith and under threat from the CIS. The Rebellion fought against a massive Empire. The New Republic had no enemy. The Imperial Remnant was best handled by precision strike teams and starfighter units. The First Order was seen as basically North Korea, completely outdated, backwards, and isolationist. Educate yourself before you wreck yourself, scrub.

New Republic (legends) excellent navy

@@williamt.sherman9841 ahh, yes, the endurance fleet carriers and the Nebula Star Destroyers

@G M Edgy dork!

@Dillon Brunschon I wasn't considering PDFs as Republic warships, especially since the Republic outright banned any navy capable of full scale warfare, like the Trade Federation. Also, if you look at that Republic Navy, it is what the Canon NR had. Remember, the First Order was basically North Korea in the eyes of the NR. Weirdos who were supposed to be using leftover outdated ships. The NR, and very few in the galaxy, knew that the First Order had a military buildup, and no one practically knew of the Sith Eternal Order behind it. Lastly, while yes, it is safest to always have a massive military, very few successful countries actually do that in real life. Most nations maintain a relatively small navy, enough to protect itself from small threats. Always having an enormous military is simply not financially possible. North Korea bankrupts itself doing that, so does Russia, and even the US is trillions and trillions of dollars in debt maintaining it's military. So, as the New Republic recovers from war, it is only logical to downsize the military and have it focus on A- pirates and the like, and B- small Imperial threats like the First Order was supposed to be. And in that, you can see they did well. The T85 was a fantastic space superiority fighter, the new Y-Wing was a long range patrol fighter perfectly suited for planetary defense, the B-Wing was great for anti-ship duties. In terms of capital ships, Nebulon frigates and the like were battle proven and upgraded from their Galactic Civil War predecessors. Meanwhile, ships like the Starhawk class and Mon Cala cruisers were the best the Republic ever had against the Empire. Honestly, the only truly dumb part of this was having the whole Navy in the Hosnian system. Nobody would actually do that lol, the fleet would operate from several "harbors" around the galaxy. More realistically, the FO would have just knocked out a sector's defenses and would have enabled them to launch a devestating blitz, not a one hit ko like in TFA.

Thank you for pointing that. I busted out laughing.

Those damn dolphins look what they’ve done soon enough they’ll take over the world

Roi R. Czechvala æugh

The manned turrets were replaced with remote controled ones. But for some reason they didn't use them 😐

The Lord of the Spirals That just makes it even more puzzling since with remote control they were only a few standard industrial connectors away from hooking the things up to a dedicated droid mind.

Like, they didn't even need a dedicated droid mind. I think the astromech could have get the job done with no issue

The Lord of the Spirals exactly

A flying face with a nose that shoots big lasers and can fire smaller droids that can shred other ships easily. Pretty legit.

Yeah but you notice how it tends to spin when it's fighting 😕?

And that bacon porg thing

New bomber? Last Jedi bomber lol

@@goodmind4940 Not tearable choice tho, but they require full refit on level of becoming "ugly" type of starfighters

@@goodmind4940 Lets rephrase his sentence; a new bomber that isn't stupid.

Well isnt this the last film

They shoulda ALREADY had them by now. Hell if even a tenth of the fleet that crushed the Imp Remanant at Jakku was around still... the FO wouldn't have lasted very long, being heavily outgunned and outnumbered too. Mega SD/paperfootball from Hell or not

That´s cause he constantly said BLT mate XD (don´t worry, I know he was just mispronouncing it by accident and that he knows that its BTL)

@@martinilp2513 I think it's in large part thanks to him rushing to get his words out and so he trips up on them often. You can hear it a lot when he speaks. Certain words just sounds like mashed letters.

No the K-wing is the A10, the Y wing is more like Mitchell B-25 or a de havilland mosquito

Y-Wing is more like the Ilyushin Il-2 or Douglas Dauntless dive bombers of Star Wars.

You may be onto something with the II-2

@@rnukes The Il-2 is an excellent ground attack aircraft of its time

Yes but the Y-wing was also a good recon craft and could really ruin the day of most shipping

Imperuim of man easy

The Forerunners were at an entirely different tier of power from Humanity in 40k. They would be more on par with the Necrons honestly, with the level of power they were at they were able to bend the laws of reality. I think the Necrons would still be more powerful, but the Forerunners are more adaptable and might be able to create countermeasures to eventually defeat them.

@@talandar5773 Nah, considering they lost to an infestation species that are FAR LESS dangerous than the Tyranids, which the Imperium has to deal with. Imperium wins at least 6/10

Nah, the TIE or X-wing are a bit more recognizable.

Slender Man 186 nope y win is in all three eras

kyle Dove you could also argue the same for the X-Wing with the Z-95 headhunter and the ARC-170, same goes for the TIE with the ETA-2 and V-Wing.

Always listen to your own gut

No, The Y-Wing is not the A-10 not even in role. The A-10 is still around because a slow flying CAS jet is a somewhat outdated design so you don’t need to make a new version of it. And with the help of lobbying, it’s going to stay in service. It’s like the Super Fortress, no need for a Long Range Strategic Bomber so there’s no need to update into a entirely New ship because the only thing the A-10 is fighting or was fighting, are a group of men in the desert with no proper AA missiles, Jets and so on. (There was even a proposal to replace the A-10 with a Propellor based Plane) The Y-Wing on the other hand, is a Anti-Ship Ship with the ability to disable Capital Ships like the Star Destroyer and be able to be a decent enough bomber, while there are small improvements to the Y-Wing, it’s still a good design. We also don’t see any new designs because Star Wars are notoriously slow for replacing new designs. The Dorito Ship Design has been around since 5,000 years ago.
