The Evolution of the Star Destroyer 

The Harrower had a low bridge also the bridge is protected by point defence....that makes it the best ones

Gf: what’s your sprit animal Me: the Mandalorian Gf: sweats nervously

Generation hallo earth

You forgot the Centurion-class Battlecruiser and Nebula-class Star Destroyers

Ok

Flying pizza of death!

Did anyone say "Dorito"?!

@@darthbane2669 well they did make there main HQ on top of a sith temple that leaked dark energy and thought it would be a good idea to raise kid's there :P

Linus Bayard i agree actually and you may be on to something,as in a way technology might actually be going backwards everytime the Empire is dealt a major setback,and as certain leaders focus on utilising super weapons instead of large numbers of powerful uniform ships

Patrick Gunnells umm.... how is technology going backwords if the Empire simply chooses to build super weapons instead of a couple dozen fleets? Technology is actually progressing is star wars, take the Resurgent for example, its the pinnacle of SD design so far, with an abusive size of an armament that is powered by kyber crystals, multiplying the damage out put. Not to mention hyperspace tracking (a major plot point) which was considered impossible up to that point. Ties now have shields and what not. These are just canon examples.

It wasn't considered impossible up to that point......they jsut wanted you to think that. Episode 4 had the millinium falcon tracked when they left the death star. Boba fett also tracked them in episode 5. Hell the movie has finn saying " That's impossible" then later have him saying he worked in that very room -_- don't take anything TLJ set up as truth, because it was a terrible movie, as well as a terrible star wars movie. Which can't have consistent continuity with itself much less the rest of star wars. Please never reference anything from TLJ as star wars lore. It broke everything and fixed nothing. Just added on more questions and makes the audience writers to explain the glaring plot holes and inconsistencies.

DanRage47 talk about overreacting...

Captain Fordo He's not overreacting, he's dead on

That was such a terrible decision

Writers think the Jedi and the audience are dumb

Under rated comment. I can only ever imagine this being how it happened now.

Completely under rated comment I love it

The effort is on point

Hi, am I speaking to a Mr Garth Babypuss? ... Yeah hi, this is Jerry over at... ... How is that pronounced?... I'm sorry. Okay Mr Babypuss, as I was saying, I'm Jerry over at Evil Capital Ship Inc. customer service. Do mind if this conversation is recorded for training purposes?... ... you do? That's okay. *presses record button anyway* Yes, we would like to offer you a complimentary first year membership in... ... Okay okay, now just hear me out, sir. Okay, so we would like to offer you a complimentary first year in our gold standard members club. ... Yes excellent question, we will get to that in a moment. Let's first talk about the benefits of becoming a member in our gold standard membership club. Okay, so you will annually receive a new membership card granting you access to monthly organized starships and coffee meets, our exclusive members only apparel, accessory and giftshop... ...yes. Sir, we will get to that in a moment. Ten percent off of every tenth ship bought and of course you will receive the coveted gold membership keyhanger... ... Yes, I'm sure we can throw in a free mug. ... No problem, sir. ... Yes, we can talk about that now. Like I said, the first year is complementary, so it is absolutely free of charge. Now keep in mind all the benefits of being a member in our gold standard members club, Mr Babypuss. Entry to our exclusive shop and events and ten percent off of every tenth ship. Yes, so after your first complimentary absolutely free of charge year as a member, you will be required to pay an annual membership fee of only ten trillion cred... Hey yo, Raymond! Can you believe this son of a muthafokka? This asshole lets me lay out the the thing for him and then just hangs up without a word!

Honestly that ship is the biggest waste of resources ever. 26 point defense cannons over a 7km ship, with no turbolasers at all.

Apparently when big companies like Disney own everything in their proffesion, they dont need to make sense anymore.

@@WhatEvenIsAGoodName , I guess they are supposed to be supported by Tie Fighters, which they didn't launch immediately after jumping in......for some reason.

@@garysmith3037 Oh no don't forget that they launched like 4 TIEs to fight Poe. And then another 12 to stop the bombers. Good job, First Order. You did gud.

You mean exsplodim

If it did that, Hyena Bombers would have an easier time bombing them. Why do you think Star Destroyers always get raped by Y-Wings?

Honestly, the Venator looks soo fucking sexy. Amazing ship from the Clone Wars. Sad we’re probably never going to see it again besides the new clone wars season and prequels.

Then you basically have an ISD with a better fighter compliment...

I always felt like the Venator's total capacity was crazy because it replaced what SHOULD have been an "Or" with an "And."

The venator...The jar jar class, LOOK AT IT

+Jongo Phett haha yea the larger it is the sooner it gets destroyed

I'm pretty sure it did survive.

They could reattach the wing that was blown of.. most of the ship seemed intact.

I would suspect Disney would want to sell new toys for Klylo Ren.

holy hecc its the best star wars memer!

Wow what an epic joke you got there man. I hope someone laughs at it.

DanRage47 Hahaha triggered right wingers.😂

SkyTech RTS that was in an episode of the Freemaker Adventures.

search up the Fondor Ship Yard then, closest i can think of

lol

lol that viscount tho...

Ahh disney wars, where you can retcon everything in a few seconds. we don't need x-wings, y-wings, whatever wings, just a purple haired lady in one hyperspace capable ship, to destroy the entire imperial fleet.

@@CookieManCookies in rotj a single xwing crashes into the Executor and destroys it. Not sure what your point is.

@@CookieManCookies since when is the First Order imperial?

Better designed.

Obi-Wan Kenobi No high ground?

they didnt have the high ground,my master.

METAWL BAWKSES

they stood no chance against the trolly rebel scum.

GENERAL KENOBI

Hydrogen One indeed, plenty of space for engines, naturally sloped armor, all guns can potentially fire at the same target at once

well provided they don't put their guns in stupid places likes on the venetor and imperial class those could effectively fire only foward and above otherwise they where shooting them selves . the sloped armor innonly and advantage if you are approaching from the slice which can be garantied if you have somehing like ground forcing otherwise it just make for a huge silouette to hit. the cis designes where generaly a lot better. a tubular design is better in 3d space.

Also allows for unrestricted broadsiding if necessary. While still allowing all guns to fire forward.

Not very effective in space. I get that you guys are imagining all battles are going to be facing forward and upright toward each other, but this is not the ocean boys and girls. This is space. A cunning captain will blow right out of hyperspace above your amazingly wide Star Destroyer and rain hell down upon a completely exposed ship.

Daniel Weseloh in star wars all your weapons and defenses are down in the time and a while after you jump out of hyper space.

You're dumb as fuck. The mouse droid definitely has the edge over the gonk droid

The Killer Clown no, hes a genious

lol!

The Killer Clown That's purely idiotic. Pit droids are the real masters of happy landings

You mean savior of an entire planet's worth of people.

+ΔΗΜΟΣΘΕΝΗΣ ΜΠΑΛΑ exactly

true unlike what Disney would have you believe cuz they've been doing stuff other then kids stuff so well...

Robert Agu People are upset over Disney's retconns? Come on those 9 Palpy clones were a little ridiculous.

People fawn over legends and ignore utterly retarded shit like *Sith Lords wiping out entire fleets by using the force to control solar flares* or Starkiller bringing down an ISD (controlling the ship's direction as it crashes in the Novel) in the Force Unleashed. The Force powers we see in Last Jedi are rather tame in comparison. Infact a lot of the people bitching about the movie just because of force bullshit probably bitched about Unleashed at some point. So they're massive hypocrites if they don't acknowledge legends has equally stupid shit. Or bitching because they want to be spoon fed all relevant info instead of going out and looking up shit that's not relevant to the plot. I can guarantee you if Empire was released today people would be bitching about the Vader-Anakin reveal or screaming 'Why the fuck can Leia hear Luke in the force what the fuck!?!'

These guys are good at using legends and canon

With a side of porg drumsticks.

Hello there.......

Obi-Wan Kenobi no, but the ewoks might make burgers of you

What about pulled Wookiee sandwiches?

The Pulled Wookiee was...well pulled for excessive hairiness. Apparently the hair grows internally also

TheDarkishKnightro loser

Alien lover omg what kind of heresi is this??

@@Asdtable calm down stronheim

And removes any justification for Death Stars if you and just hijack a freighter like the one Han and Chewie had in TFA and set the auto pilot to FTL ram the ship into the Death Star. Or why not build FTL missiles a bit smaller than a starfighter to destroy captial ships, after all if you can fit a hyperdrive on an X-wing, why not? That First Order Fleet would have been destroyed with less than 20 such missiles, the Imperial Fleet at Endor (including the Death Star 2) could have been thoroughly smashed with 40 or 50 depending on how much of a beating the Death Star could take.

jime6688 Keep in mind technology has probably progressed since Return of the Jedi, and it was probably very risky and not worth trying even if it was possible before hand. The resistance had no where to go, were on the verge of destruction, and had no other options. It also had to probably be timed by a skilled and experienced pilot, or a specialized droid, as you could jump too late or too early. So why would you waste a perfectly good pilot or an expensive droid and a ship just for the chance of a near light speed destruction?

jime6688 lightspeed is likely very hard though,it most likely has to be perfectly timed as when you enter lightspeed you enter another dimension and must exit it at the right time.

It's so fucking stupid, ur travelling in hyperspace so she wouldn't even interact with the first order ships at lightspeed. The last jedi was directed by a 5 year old.

I'd assume autopilot would not be able to do it well and no one was asking anyone to suicide at that point yet. as for hyperdrive torpedoes the only logical explanation to why not [aside from "hurr durr plot holes"] would be the cost of building hyperdrives.

Big Poppa most of them(Imperial ones anyway) were made in the Kuat shipyards, a massive orbital construction ring above the planet of the same name. Think of a Halo ring that builds ships

In Star Wars Battlefront II You go to an Imperial Shipyard on Fondor.

chris pearson Kuat Drive Yards' shipyards also appeared in the 2015 Darth Vader comic series

barry milholland well most things will crumble if you shoot them in the balls

OOF

Lol

OOF

*ooooooooffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff*

+naruto naruto true true

Too bad they didn't point the superlaser at capital ships

The Death Star one wasn't accurate enough to hit capital ships in the heat of battle

Then why make it?

naruto naruto the reason the Death Star was destroyed was because of the turbo lasers not being made for small x wing size ships they were made for shooting down capital ships

Frogish holdo

Holdo was a rare example of a purple-haired woman who wasn’t fat.

and who actually looked good in purple hair

John Cunningham Why would dyed hair not be a thing in the future

Daycrist...They didn't do that though, because it would make sense!...Sorry.

Marie BCFHS the empire did not have the plans to fix it so they never knew about it except for the stupid design that let the Death Star get blown up so easily

Or a sniper cannon, used to one shot ships traveling through hyper space...(see the Republic Trooper storyline in SWTOR).

Or a superlaser. (see Legends material on the Conqueror)

Well say that to it's successor the gladiator class cruiser.

DWatchRazgriz hohoho do i see a dawn of war profile pic ;-; *Dawn of war is best and its life*

Or a gigantic railgun to plow through a planet's surface and crack open the core

Barry Bend I like the Gladiator

Barry Bend The horrower is a dreadnaught. Not a star destroyer.

Man, i've heard that name befire, but i can't put my finger on what it looks like

Well the harrower does share a similar structure to the gladiator and in the old canon would be an influence. The harrower was around 800 meters in length so pretty close.

How about Desann's flag ship, The Doomgiver. I have a soft spot for The Remnant and the reborn army.

Kinda. One time in Legends, 3 star destroyers came out of hyperspace (still going light speed) smashed into an Executor Super Star Destroyer, but they just exploded when they hit the shields of the ship and the Super Star Destroyer was unharmed. All what happened is the Super Star Destroyer's shields took some damage.

Palps did nothin wrong Anakin rammed a venator star destroyer into a droid control ship in the battle of Ryloth. And commander Sato rammed his rebel carrier into an interdictor cruiser during the battle of Atollon. They weren’t done with hyperspace however.

Palps did nothin wrong Star Wars history is non-canon by Disney.

Keadin Mode Indeed. My first question after watching that scene was, why didn't any faction in SW history ever create Hyper space missiles. Like no need for suicide ships when you can fit missiles with hyperdrive. This scene was spectacular especially for common movie goers but for a SW fan that likes going deep in the lore it doesn't make sense, it is immersion breaking the more you think about it and it just shouldn't be there.

Hyper drive is being used for more than 20000 years now and was created even before. Only now a purple hair lady came up with the idea. No one else before came up with the idea that the technology could be used this way or to come up with some countermeasures if someone ever used it this way. That's doesn't make sense.

they werent call star destroyers until original post clone wars eras.

Nephtali Valdez *DISNEY+ GETS MAD BY THAT*

*_*The Mandalorian Plays Menacingly In The Background_**

And if so, why didn't they think of that in the first place?

Loong Chang Wang venators are mainly carriers that's why they don't have that many big weapons.

Badger But for the Clone Wars, The Venator was very heavily armed. I believe in the holocron heist arc of SWTCW, a single Venator took down 3 or 4 Separatist cruisers.

Lol you mean insane purple haired lady

Midiclorians, dude

I AM THE SENATE

Gabe T Imperial Class I or II?

Loh Jia En both are fine

he missed my ship how dare he!!!!

Apologies, my Lord

technically The Centurion-class battlecruiser wasn't really a star destroyer at all
