The Imperial Escort Carrier, aka the Imperial Escort Frigate, was used by the elite Imperial Storm Commandos and could transport the TIE Hunter. One of the best TIE Fighter variants in the Imperial Navy. See a complete breakdown, size comparison, and history of this spec-ops Star Wars ship.

Mackenzie Bauroth those were Death Troopers though. They act as both bodyguards for high-ranking Imperials like Moff Gideon and as kill squads. That being said, Gideon likely will need to call on some spec ops units to find and retrieve the Child from the Mandalorian. And who better to call for that job than Storm Commandos? So here’s to hoping that they’re still around after the Empire and end up appearing in Season 2.

Mackenzie Bauroth doubt it, since they don’t perform any of the roles Storm Commandos did in Legends. Which is honestly a good thing, since it means we can potentially have both Death Troopers and Storm Commandos in canon if they’re ever added.
These would be great to see in live-action, they would work so well in The Mandalorian.
This ship is so beautiful of a design. This and the Raider class Corvette gives the Empire an impressive arsenal of small ships. It is nice to see as the Empire is often always remembered for just having big star destroyers.
These guys are definitely imperial Navy Seals.

That’s a cool-looking ship
If I am going to join the 501st Cosplay group, I will most definitely be making one of those storm commando suits.
These ships are so annoying in Thrawn's campaign for EAW. They just speed boost away when they are about to die and have to chase them down with your slow ships. Well depending what your fleet make up is

That Rogue Squadron mission is one of my all time favorites because that was the first time we got to use seismic charges in the series.
I requested a vid for this ship a long time ago. Glad it's finally here. Gotta give the Storm Commandos some respect.
Even more reason to love Storm Commandoes 😍😍😍
Woah I personally asked you to do that ship via emails a couple months back, completely forgot about it... idk if you did it on my suggestion, but I'm so glad you did it! I needed the lenght because I want to 3D print it, but I lacked the skills to analyze its lenght... THANK YOU SO MUCH!! I'm starting a new more paying job soon and after that I'll seriously consider to patreon you!!
YESSS! I was waiting for a breakdown of this ship from one of my favorite Star Wars game!
Oh Hell Yeah now we are talking!
I've though of a 2005 meter long version of this ship called the Revenge-Class Sith Destroyer. Basically a giant shoutout to Episode 3
I always got a kinda Star Trek/ halo feel from these things, and I really wish we saw more of these
The imperial storm cammandos should be featured in a film along with separatist remnants taking on stormtroopers on geonisis. Fun fact : Dennis lawton (Wedge Antilles) is Ewan McGregor(obi-wan) uncle.
I miss Factor 5 and the Rogue Squadron games they made. Wish they were still around making Star Wars games
I still play that game every so often
Ah this brings back memories thanks for covering this.
I was unaware you used my artwork in your video, what wonderful surprises you find at 2 in the morning.
Liked and enjoyed another AWESOME vid. Been wondering about this type of ship. Stay AWESOME, MetaNerdz!
Omg take me back to childhood, I loved destroying these in rogue squadron
Another informative video MetaNerdz. I was wondering if sometime in the future you could do a video on the TIE Oppressor. For what information I've gathered, it was the Empires attempt to create a faster and more maneuverable Bomber, but other than that, that's all I know. Thank you if you do.
I want to see EC Henry's take on this bad boy.
Fun fact: Crix Madine used to be a stormcommando commander......
1:35 Love the cookie cutter imperial response.. lol
*Watching the first parts intro scene* "Huh. When did Star Wars crossover with Beast Wars?"
A beautiful ship design.
I appreciate your stats that you provide, but I'd like to see disney put out an official breakdown of this ship somewhere with its dimensions
Love the stealthy Zummwalt inspired main battery
I didn’t even realise the Imperial Escort Carrier was made canon! It’s one of my favourite imperial star ships, that’s awesome!
I always loved playing with the Ty hunter in this game I especially like the escort carrier and I always loved Rogue Squadron 1 for the N64 and 3 for the GameCube I like 2 I really did but I guess I like playing more Original Stories
I would love to see a vid done on the crusader xx-777 prototype droid frigate. It's a very interesting ship
What a cool ship.
How useful they would be if they were captured by the Rebel Alliance and have them team up with the Corvette blockade runners?

Can you do a video on the guenieve from the sojourn by the KZread channel spacedock?
This ship always reminds me of the Musa class from Gundam UC
Good work I have never seen this before looks cool that's why people like the bad guys
The Imperial Officers to survive the collapse of the Empire who commands one of these could easily become a prosperous warlord
Ah, my favorite thing to blow up. One load of sonic mines and these imperial ships are nothing
But how many Zillowbeasts is it long or Krayyyt Dragons is it wide?

Hello there
Epic gamer moment
We need this in Battlefront 2. Would be perfect.

Kinda like a pocket ventor class star destroyer, a upgrade from a quaser but not quite a ISD.

How the hellcan this thing be the same size as a Corvette, but carry 72 fighters when a Rebel Corvette doesn't even have room for a launch bay or carry fighters?
Looks more like a 220m frigate than a 150m Corvette.

The Gaming Nerd and I'd love if they all had their own cheeky personalities that let us bond with them. Like, a Stormtrooper Officer leading a squad of bros and their other close friends manning their stations aboard a SD titled something like "The Usurper" or a cruiser named "The Luminant". But unless the director and crew for the show are as passionate about it like The Mandalorian's then it's bound to flop. I'd honestly love it to be the first "Legends" live action project commissioned by Disney and start bringing back the fans that have left and are leaving their Canon behind. I'm not about to go in on their ass in this comment section but from what you've seen me type so far, my feeling about the Disney Canon is "disappointed"...

The Gaming Nerd it's because these guys end up actually "thinking" and acknowledging the horrors their leaders and they themselves really do.

After Wedge shoots down Sarkli's Escort Carrier over Geonosis, his X-Wing is damaged by the explosion, which causes Wedge to lose control and crash on the planet. After the crash, Wedge's astromech droid R5 detects a leftover Jedi Starfighter still on the planet. After fighting past B1 droids still active and Sarkli's surviving crew, Wedge and R5 get the fighter to work again, which they use to get of the planet. Wedge rejoins the Rebel forces still in orbit and helps fight off the remaining Imperials in the Jedi fighter.
the imperial escort carrier didnt look like this its more round
