Also worth noting the Empire labeling the rebellion as separatist holdouts was an effective propaganda tool. From a purely military perspective it made no sense for Palpatine to order the CIS military shutdown. You'd likely see way more under the Empire at least early on if public perception wasn't a thing either side was concerned with. Real reason is probably as simple as the rebels were created first but, still an interesting and believable in lore reason.

That is one of my favorite Star wars ships in all Star wars thank you for doing this man made the force be with you
Hot take: The Recusant is the best designed Star Wars ship (for a realistic setting). As you may know, space isn't completely empty, there are a few tiny particles and atoms floating around. And even these tiny things can cause massive damage to a ships hull at the speeds ships are travelling in Star Wars. That's why it is wise to design a ship to be very long and not very wide, so you can concentrate most of your protection on the front part of the ship, which will then protect most of the ships surface area from incoming particle collisions. For more and more in-depth info about that you can watch Isaac Arthur's video essay about spaceship design.

They have long-developed particle shields to counter that issue. The best design is the Venator because it is a true jack of all trades vessel.
@Julia-mx3ki

@@emberfist8347 I tend to disagree with that. While yes, particle shields are indispensable for space travel, they are still energy fields which require a lot of fuel to keep running. I think that's why those capital ships burn those massive amounts of fuel. That's because the most expensive part to operate on a capital ship are shields and weaponry, as engines aren't that energy hungry with the little resistance in space and the rest of the ships systems (like lights, life support, computer systems, etc.) are negligable in the scales we're talking about. We can see this in effect when comparing the amounts of fuel burned by a Venator and Recusant reactor. So you want to design you're ship to be as energy efficient as possible to gain an edge over you're enemy and that's why the shape of the Recusant is superior to most ships in Star Wars.

For that matter, how is a ship whose main weapon is a spinal mounted one trick pony supposed to be "well designed" by any rational definition? By and large, ALL CIS ships are garbage, both in design and otherwise. Which is perfectly fine, because like with its ground troops, the CIS embraced the idea of unending swarms rather than individual quality.
According to some old lore, the Rebels got a few of these ships and modified them.

Another S tier breakdown. Would love to see a Master K’Kruhk legends breakdown. By far the coolest Jedi in legends
I love that each manufacturer in the CIS have their own naming convention and design elements but still have some semblance of similarity to reflect how the CIS actually operates
The CIS are just so cool, I love hearing these more in-depth breakdowns of their stuff. So is it the munificent or the recusant that had the massive turbolasers on their front? I always thought that was a really unique design choice and something we don't see too much in Star wars either
"Light Destroyer" bigger then a venator. But what does it matter when 80% of all ships are cruisers anyway, the terms are made up and the points don't matter.

No, the Dreadnaught version is bigger than a Venator, but the Light Crusier Variant is much smaller, only like 1 kilometer long while the venator was 1 kilometer and 600 meters. The Dreadnaught version of the Recusent was huge at 2,200 meters or 2 kilometers and 200 meters.

I have two theories as to the classification. 1:weight-classes are based not on their length but volume and mass, where the Venator is a battle carrier with both the necessary crew for direct combat and strike-craft, the Recusant is slimmer and has numerous open spaces for spaced armor and vultures, alongside its minuscule crew requirements. 2: much like in real life, it’s not weight or design that denotes classifies a ship, but politics.

Well we also got Star Destroyers which were clearly battleships. Star Wars is quite confusing when it comes to naming their ship classes.

It's a quality ship! It and other CIS vessels make up the naval fleet of a CIS holdout in a story I'm involved with as well
I personally believe that it could be both: a merchant vessel designed to ward off pirates & such… However, based on the engine layout, I initially thought it was a Techno Union ship, just like the rocket ship looking ships that were on Geonosis. All-in-all, when I saw the various ships in “Revenge of the Sith”, I felt there was a connection with the various Separatist ships & Gallofree as well as Mon Calamari…

It is a Techno Union ship. Most of the Confederacy-aligned manufacturers and even a few Republic ones were owned by the Techno Union. Despite the name, it is more of an example of the collaborative nature of the Separatists. It is a Quarren stolen design built using Commerce Guild material under Techno Union foremen by both the Quarrens who stole the design and another shipwright owned by the Trade Federation through a Nimbanese clan.

the fact that he fights to the last shriek is an advantage in an automatic ship, especially if the crew is eliminated
Such an underappreciated vessel at least I love you recusant
have always been curious about this ship, glad you could cover it
I have chosen this late Star Wars video to tell the author the following: you are the best Star Wars channel on KZread. You are the only channel for which I have notifications turned on, and I watch KZread like most people watch Netflix. So thank you for what you do. I am deeply grateful.
I love the CIS ships & fleet. They instantly standout and have great designs
The entire seperstist fleet is just terrifying, you get these skeletal ships with essentially ghost or skeleton crews and then as you get closer a bunch of swarm fighters just spew from every nook and cranny like wasps even though all of your data says that most of them don't even have hangers and then you get the droning roar as the engines come to life as the entire formation just advances on you
I love how skeletal it looks, and that it has a droid brain. I think that if I was in the Confederacy, I'd either want the recuscant or the lukerhulk as a command ship. Or maybe the malevolence because...it's a badass ship
I love this ship!!!
Have to say you are by far one of the best people on youtube that just goes over the specs of ships and I am someone that love this stuff!
These would be far more dangerous if Cortana had it
Best Star Wars channel around!
This is one of my favorite star wars ships. It's the perfect small ship of the line. It's cost effective, requires few crew (resulting in lower maintenance costs and allowing additional mass to be dedicated to armor and weapons rather than crew accommodations), fast, well armed for its size, has an array of defensive weapons, can carry some starfighters without giving up any mass to dedicated hangers thanks to clever use of negative space, makes use of layers of spaced armor for protection, and unlike many star wars ships, actually seems to have a relatively intelligent weapons layout where most turrets have a good field of fire.
Huge thumbs up for referring to the Mon Calamari and Quarren homeworld as Dac, and also as Mon Cala. So many people call the planet itself "Mon Calamari" and it pisses me off.
This is one of my favorite ships, thanks for covering it.
The reason there isn’t any armored plates over the section near the engines is because there is a large amount of point defense cannons there to defend it so it would just block a lot of the ships fire power
As far back as the original sw bf2 and the phantom menace battle of coruscant scene, this has always been my favourite sw captial ship.
I always like the look of this ship. It was a light destroyer so it had a lot of purpose in almost any formation. Though I write some fan fiction on Star Wars in my spare time, and i have been thinking about an idea turning this into a ship that a heavy hitter of a small fleet. Love the design, and I have the complete cross section book so I got all that information on it. Like Torn Lamb said, an underrated ship by far.
This explains a lot . At first I could not understand its build , but now I see how it's functional . Not Pretty but BAD TO THE BONE . More videos like this Please !
