    4:37 The reason Old Republic troopers and Clone troopers look almost identical is because their armour is heavily Mandalorian-inspired. The Old Republic had just about gotten completely ass-raped by the Mandalorians not long before the rise of Vitiate's Sith Empire, which forced them to militarize. So when designing armour for their soldiers, they took inspiration from the enemy that nearly defeated them, since it was clearly effective. We all know about the creation of the clones; based on the genetic template of a Mandalorian, and their training and equipment was heavily overseen by Mandalorians. Thus their design philosophies played a large part in the construction of the armour.

Throughout Tales of the Jedi, where that lore originates, the Republic has an almost Chinese and Japanese scifi look versus the very Crusader looking Mandalorians. With the only real exception being the murder hobo Onderonians and the Aztec looking Sith.

    the top gun is also just a barrel, if you look at the under wing guns (and the ones on the x-wing) there is a body to the gun that is as long again as the barrel, but the top gun just slopes into the fuselage (which contains an engine that is also somehow half as long as the wing ones) - makes it look just tacked on

    I have a soft spot for the G9 Rigger-class light freighter: it's an inexpensive freighter powered by Sadness. My Star Wars RPG group stole, like, three from the Hutts, because we didn't have anyone who could fake ship registries, but we DID have somebody who could physically tinker with the ship to rig up some basic controls. The Hutts were less than happy, but we framed an Imperial black ops group for the thefts, so we never had any issues.

    The Venator double bridge looks like Jar Jar Binks face, at some angles. IMHO it was designed back when George Lucas was planning on having Darth Jar Jar, and right after the big reveal there was going to be a slow transition from a close up of Darth Jar Jar's face _and his Sith eyes_ (that we only just realised were Sith all along) to a Venator, with the bridges lining up with Jar Jar's eyes. With the lead up time in designing ships, models ect, the artwork would have begun far before even the script was finalised. Anyway, now try to unsee Jar Jar's face in a Venator … what if that was the reason that the Empire didn't keep it, but kept the Acclimator? *Vader:* My master, the bridges of a Venator, I find them annoying to gaze at. They remind me of that irritating… *Palatine [interrupting]:* Jar Jar, I see the resemblance too, Lord Vader. And it disturbs you? (Looking sideways at Vader, and knowing his weaknesses)… …it's like sand. [Vader shivers] I shall decommission them then. Remember this indulgence, Lord Vader.

I'm also not bothered that this ship needed a new R-7 Astromech to work. Its only real fault was that people liked the X-Wing, which led the Legends writers to create the XJ as a super X-Wing to eclipse the fascinating but underloved E-Wing. The Sequel Trilogy unwittingly followed suit.

    Honestly I think the best light ground vehicle would be something like a fully encased AT-RT since it balances speed with *just* enough protection against small arms fire to stay useful in a fight while having a reasonably powerful armament for skirmishing against infantry or other scout vehicles. It does all of this while staying light enough to not have to worry about getting bogged down like a heavier (ahem: AT-ST) walker might. At the end of the day either of our favorites works well for their intended roles which leads me to ask: what the hell was the Empire thinking when they made the AT-ST?

    But Clone Armour has an origin, it's derivative of Mando armour. It doesn't need this tie back to the Republic Troopers. George Lucas took old designs and made new ones based off them. He took the ISD and made the Venator and Acclamator. He took the X-wing and made the ARC-170. He took the TIE fighter and made the Scimitar and the Eta-2. He took Boba Fett's armour and Stormtrooper armour and made an army with similar but still recognizably different armour. With the Republic Troopers, it's painfully derivative. George Lucas made two flying triangles that were distinct but still obviously connected to the same flying triangles from the original trilogy, while the Republic Trooper armour is so obviously just Phase II Clone Armour but Slightly Different.

    @@demi-femme4821 But why is Clone armor derivative of Mandolorian armor? The Mandolorians were nothing big in the era of the first 3 movies. Why make an army to defend the Republic based off of a group of people not known to the general populace and if known unlikely to be a good impression (Mandolorians do not have in general a good reputation). I also ask why base the ARC-170 off of the X-Wing as the history of the X-Wing is stated to be from an earlier, but similar ship the Z-95 Headhunter. And why just replace the ARC-170 with a completely different ship style as the TIE (I understand viewing the ARC-170 as not meeting the new needs, but why not redesign the ARC-170 instead of just swapping over to a new untested design?)? The Republic Troopers armor has a realistic reason for why they are an amalgam of Mandolorian armor. During the Knights of the Old Republic era (just prior to most of the Old Republic events) the Mandolorians fight a war against the Republic, and while smaller in number they seriously damage the Republic. Not too surprisingly the Republic wanting to better equip their now veteran troops in what had been proven during a war as superior armor. Monday's insanity is correct, much of the Old Republic and movies 1 thru 3 are backwardsworld building. Sadly, much of the Star Wars designs are too derivative period. The Old Republic does an attempt to reason why.

    6:26 My main issue with the E-wing is the giant laser cannon directly over the canopy. Not does it seem to block a fairly large portion of the pilot's view above them, its also unclear how someone gets in or out of the damn thing considering the canopy can't lift upwards like on every other Alliance starfighter. Maybe it slides forward? But even then you still have to be careful not to crack your head on the barrel. I know star wars dogfights are inspired by WW2 air combat, so why not put the cannon IN the nose? There were plenty of old fighter planes that used that design, and it makes more sense than putting the guns on the wingtips too.

    My main issue with the E-Wing is the gun mounted over the cockpit annoys me greatly. How does the cockpit open? Does the gun have to have additional components and machinery to allow being moved up? Do mechanics have to repair that machinery often and how difficult is that compared to the wing-mounted guns? Does the blaster fire from the gun inhibit the sight of the pilot with constant flashes? On my model for the X-Wing tabletop game I surgically removed the gun and reglued it to the underside of the fuselage to avoid all these problems.

    7:58 I actually kind of like that ship, although since it is a decorative covering for a stage for actors to prepare in, I see why the proportions are so wrong. My theory is that the sip uses censors to navigate and the pilots are behind computer screens while the glass is there either to confuse the resistance, or are actually solar panels to power instruments. I visited it at Disney and it also appears in the ride where you fly the falcon, where it’s armor proves to be impressive, by talking at least four hits on from the Falcon’s main guns (and since they don’t program it to crash) this can take a beating from a small point defense gun and walk away unscathed so having limited cockpit glass makes sense. Also as for the complainant that it is a first order transport with wings on it, that is fair but also practical that the First Order would take a work an working design into a new design. Real world militaries do that as well, like the Black Hawk compared to the Huey.

If I was in Star Wars I'd most certainly have either a modified ARC-170 for a single pilot, with modified weapons systems, interior, and of course some upgrades that'd help keep me alive like a good shield and a space toilet and fridge. Alternatively on a more "realistic" approach assuming I couldn't get a ship of my choice, I'd most certainly get a U-Wing, as it's not only beautiful, but spacious and a very reliable craft

Also 100% agree with you on the Old Republic designs, they're cool but look weird when you factor in the timeline. The only Sequel ships I'd say I agree with you on are the Xyston and, to a lesser extent, the Resistance shuttle. The Xyston's just ISD 2.0 with a superlaser and the shuttle just looks weird, though it at least has some charm to it. Also, the E-wing can absolutely get scrapped, I'm sorry, I just can't lol...

That's a big issue with the U-Wing, because for the U-Wing, there's no good angle to look at the door opening up because the wing is in the way. The ship was designed to look more like a fighter than a troop transport, and any shot from above just doesn't show any of the troop transport aspect.
