By the end of this we will have 100 starhawks!

I was never really too wild about the Disney Canon and how they handled the Rebels post Battle of Endor and the New Republic, but I had to admit seeing the star hawk design all those years ago I thought it was awesome, finally felt fresh to see a more original design. And now it's nice to finally see the thing in action. Remember in Rogue One, during the Battle of Scarif when those star destroyers came in from Hyperspace while the Rebels were retreating, how it felt like the star destroyers were PUNCHING in from hyperspace, you could feel it's sheer size. I can only imagine how that would feel with a Starhawk.

The Starhawk (and the Raider class corvette before it) were designed by Fantasy Flight Games, based off text from a book, so the fact that they are made canon is a testament to the FFG design teams. The Starhawk is, from what I had heard before this video, also about the same length as a Venator class RSD, so it may have punch, just not as much as the ISD.

@@TheRezro Not from the old information. Before it was added to Squadrons, the Starhawk was the size of a Venator and made to match the ISDs, not the SSD. This size was most likely based off the FFG model for their Star Wars Armada game and the only counter to a SSD is another, too big for the New Republic to crew. I personally prefer this smaller size, as the New Republic would still have been small compared the the Imperial Remenant as a whole. So they would have needed a slugger that could fight on equal grounds and require less than the ISDs to crew. In the story, only three were built by the battle of Jakku: the Concord, the Amity and the Unity. While they were able to punch through the ISDs, the SSD Ravager destroyed the Amity outright and damaged the Concord so badly, it started to fall planetside. So the captain used its tractor beam on the Ravager in an 'I'll take you with me' gesture, which only worked due to the Ravager having its engines damaged during the act.

*New Republic:* We need a new Star Destroyer ASAP, let's design a whole new ship from scratch, go through testing and refining the prototypes and then use a whole bunch of working and damaged Imperial ships for components. *Rebel engineer:* Or we could just retrofit all those Imperial Star Destroyers we have, getting rid of all the flaws we used to exploit, repairing the broken ones and get a new force up with hardly any downtime. *New Republic:* But designing a brand new capital ship should be quick and easy. *Rebel engineer:* What's quick and easy is taking a ISD and fitting a internal bridge with holographic displays, removing all the base building and planetary invasion supplies, fitting point defence quad lasercannons everywhere, and letting the Mon Cala go wild with the shields. Could get one working in a few weeks, tops. Remove the bridge superstructure and _it would look cool,_ just a flying wedge in space.

Retrofitting on this scale can actually take longer then building new. So unless you capture a bunch of hulls that are partially built. It makes little sense to carry out such extensive retrofitting. Eventually you reach a pint we’re it makes sense to just finish building the SD. Also if you just capture a bunch of spare parts or you not salvage worthy SDs and no new hulls you have to build ships out of the parts you have. Hence the star hawk

To be fair. The Imperial Star Destroyer does not have a good track record in Canon. Maybe they knew the things sucked or were complete shite and didn't want to go through the hassle of trying to make one work. Plus according to Twilight Company an ISD is so resource-intensive that if you destroy Kuat, there are no other ship yards that can handle more than a handful of the things. Plus lets face it, the Empire was so bad off by the time they reached Jakku that the New Republic could have sat around playing charades and the war would still have been won. You have all the time in the world to build a new starship or weapon when your opposition has the combined tactical brilliance that is possibly beneath that of a B1 droid.

It's a shame we didn't get to see one or more Starhawks in the big fleet at the end of Episode 9 taking on some Stardestroyers.

The tractor beam is actually a really cool feature. Since it’s in the front it can keep a star destroyer pinned down right in it’s kill zone without taking two much damage since all the armor in the front would protect it

In my personal canon, the StarHawks will have a bigger and (more logical) role. Giving the number of battlecruisers that the Imperial Remnants all across the galaxy will have after the disruption of the Empire and the death of Palpatine, the New Republic will desing and build the StarHawk battlecruiser in order to counter it´s imperial counterparts (most notably the Preator MK2) For this role the StarHawk will be bigger (4,660 m long) more heavily armed, but will mantain the rest of its characteristics, and will require 4 to 5 ISDs to be build. This canon is based around Legends canon with the inclusion of some ships and other few cool stuff of Disney´s canon

I've always thought the Starhawk looked like the Gravestone ship from the Star Wars: The Old Republic game.

The Rebelion needed blockade runners. Small, fast ships were favoured. Smugglers were sometimes hired for sesitive runs.

An acclamator for campaign would have been very cool.

Hummers are the civy model of the mil grade Humvee

Starhawks loaded and sent! For the Emperor!!!.......wait a minute

Of course the empire should be scared. If a farmboy piloting a snubfighter has enough plot armor to not only survive a starfighter battle with a sith lord and still blow up a battle station that has the power to blow Alderaan to smithereens, imagine what kind of havoc a 2.4km battleship will cause. Surrendering the moment one of these ships show up is the only viable strategy as the empire can at least delay the inevitable by forcing the rebels to process the surrendering crews and impounding the captured star destroyers.

look up ec henry's forgotten star wars ships, gives an extra perspective

When I first saw the Starhawk I almost thought it was a Omnicannon combat Frigate. like the Gravestone in The Old Republic.

Well that explains some reason.

The lodestar was destroyed in the 2nd alphabet squadron book so will this take place before that bookseries??

Umm the Hammerhead corvette was originally a capital ship during the old republic era(canon) during the mandolorian wars and the jedi/sith wars. It was later used as a diplomatic ship when it's size rendered it obsolete compared to the bigger capital ships.

The yeet beam

The Early Rebellion incapsulated Captain Jack Sparrow’s idea of Pirate Nobility… “Fight, to run away”. 😉😉🥴. They led the Empire of a Universal Wild Goose Chase. “Nuhhuh can’t catch me, almost got me, nope too slow, bye 👋, see you next week for our cat and mouse game chapter 479.”

In the early books the moncal star cruisers were originally designed as luxury passenger liners although later they would be purpose designed as war ships

The starhawk already exists as a model in Star Wars Armada since 2019 ;)

the Starhawk Looks like the Gravestone from Star Wars The Old Republic

omg i didnt know star wars squadrons is launching in 2 days

Question about dem Mon Cala ships, weren't they underwater buildings that were inhabited by water-breathing creatures, therefore, water would also be present inside said buildings right? So they wouldn't have needed to be constructed to withstand high underwater pressures since the pressure inside and outside the building would have been the same.

that looks alot like my gravestone flagship from star wars the old republic eternal alliance and if they somehow got the blueprints for it i understand the empires fear

Small question... why is Star Hawk looking kindof like ToR's Gravestone? 🤔

Best part of canon is the starhawk

Do you think Thrawn will be in squadrons

The real reason the empire was afraid of the starhawk is that they thought the rebels had rediscovered the starforge, as thats the only logical explanation to how the rebels pulled 3 brand new, state of the art, battle cruisers out of their ass less then a year after they stopped being a purely mobile gorilla fighting force.
