I don't know if you've ever played the old game echo the dolphin but let me tell you squids and dolphins have a history going back thousands of years... Eventually they'd evolve back in the crabs and crustacean somehow which makes no sense but best not to think about that c; In all seriousness that game gets very interesting is not just a little dolphin game...

Someone using a jedi code does not mean they are a jedi or even force sensitive. My guess is: the captain assumed someone without any ability to use the force stumbled over that old code and tried to use it in order to swindle the republic. Which (considering how rare trained force users are in that period) probably would have been correct at least 9 out of 10 times. The security detail would have been sufficient to detain any imposters pretending to be jedi.

It could fire any weapons, which might be hidden, it has inside his ship or, as mentioned in the video, it could even be a bomb. This could have been anything, from a prank, to someone wanting to free his prisoner to someone who wants her dead. He should have 1. Ignored them and reported this encounter to fleet command or 2. deploy a fighter screen and send a security detail over to check it out while keeping his distance.

@@jeffengel2607 early Mon Calamari capital ships that were used by the rebels could only be used by the Mon Calamari people.

Models like the MC80B and the MC90 star cruisers are two such warships.

One thing that occurs to me about New Republic demilitarization is that this would be *very* bad for major shipyard systems (Corellia, Kuat, etc.) and the Senate might have had to agree to acquiring new ships or else face a collapse of their shipbuilding industry. But, not wanting to get sucked into the expense black hole of the ISDs and MC-80's, they came up with a smaller design that would have the additional advantage of visually distinguishing the NR fleet from the Imperial fleet.

Honestly when you consider the "Light freight" class of starship which are readily weaponizeable, it would really make sense for large Republic vessels to be built around a modular chassis. Strip away the armor and guns and rearrange some bulk heads na interiors space and they can be transporter cargo ships works. It may not be the most robust of war fighters, but for peacekeeping forces, you want cheap efficient systems for exerting pressure, nit overt miliary action.

It's not a question of trust but a doctrine and intended use - TIE fighter is a very capable craft despite how they show in movies. Yes they do lack shields but shields are not a game changer on starfighter in SW universe - x-wing's shields can hold for 1-2 seconds under fire from a single TIE fighter. Shields do provide a better survivability but only against light flack or random shots. You should also consider that after end of clone wars there were no manor armed conflicts of such scale for several generations. Rebellion posed a terrorist treat and was not easy to find, but not an enemy in direct confrontation. 99% of empire navy have never seen a single rebel and were doing patrol, peace keeping and anti-piracy activities in millions of worlds across the galaxy. In most anything more than a TIE was just an overkill and as result just wase of money for empire. And empire added more capable crafts as rebellion treat increased. TIEi, TIEa, TIE defender and many more. Most of them were plain better than rebel alternatives in each and any aspect

But even in Contemporary Europe it took decades of declining budgets and contentious procurement programs that resulted in no new weapon systems. It was only when a threat appeared that everyone realized how unprepared they had become. However Western Europe or NATO Europe would be more akin to system defense fleets in Star Wars. They're not really intended for global or galactic force projection, just regional projection. Europe is backed by the US much like local systems should be backed by the New Republic. The New Republic should be focused on sector security systems and equiping local systems to be able to hold off for so long before Reinforcements arrive. Essentially democratizing the military. And usi g the US as an example, there's numerous military bases across the US which have no military influence with local cities. Having clear distinctions that military cannot be used to enforce civilian law is a very clear step that the New Republic Lacks.

Ahsoka showcases this with the allegedly New Republic shipyards on Corellia being run by Imperial loyalists who wear NR lapel pins even as they facilitate the theft of assets. Senator Xiono seemed oddly uncurious as to why anybody would want to steal SSD hyperdrive cores when the NR is not building ships that big. If he were logical (or not getting bribed by the Imperial Remnant) then logic would lead to asking *who* needs SSD hyperdrives and *what* kind of ships do they want them for?

Dude, they were being hailed by an old DIPLOMATIC shuttle with two people on board.

I honestly feel like this ship could take a lone star destroyer. Not by itself, but in conjunction with its fighter compliment. The Rebel Alliance built their naval tactics around their starfighters. It was out of necessity due to their lack of capital ships, but it made them very good at taking down very large targets with well-coordinated starfighter attacks. This cruiser has multiple hangers, so probably has 3 or 4 starfighter squadrons on board. Deploy them against the star destroyer while the ship itself lays down covering fire and draws the fire of the star destroyer away from the fighters.

@@Engine33Truck *starts laughing hysterically* No. A VSD alone has the power to 1v1 this ship. This kind of fight is what a Star Destroyer is built for. Standing its ground and slugging it out with an equal. Making itself 'bait' won't work because this is the kind of target a VSD or even an ISD would eagerly chew up and spit out. Not to mention and VSD would be able to easily match the NR fighter compliment with an equal number of TIEs to screen the VSD while it goes after the 'bait' ship. An ISD would be able to almost double up on them. So unless this thing is bristling with enough guns that it would go against the NR's 'more peaceful friendlier' doctrine, it will NOT win in a fight against a lone Star Destroyer. It would actually require them to gang up on a lone Star Destroyer and at least a fourth of each of their fighter compliment would have be Y-wing bombers. This ship as described is the NR's version of a Quasar Light Carrier. It has no business attacking anything heavier than a heavy frigate. A category that both Victory and certainly Imperial Class Star Destroyers fall WELL outside of.

They likely are good at being a mobile network of portable fighter space stations in a manner, they just bring in 3 or so in 3 single jump distance triangle, and the fighters can jump from any one of them, and then jump to another system, then back to a system with a carrier, safely making it a 3 jump rotating patrol that covers a dozen systems. So instead of the empire needing at least 12 SD class for mot rebel uprising sectiors, you have 3 of these doing the same amount of peace time work.

The 2 dark jedi are said to have killed half the security detail when they exited the hangar, which suggests that there were only a couple dozen troopers on board.

I am surprised we are still seeing many Mon Calamari in the fleet considering that they create a home defence fleet during this period. In fact that could explain the creation of these new hybrid cruisers, because the Mon Calamari are probably busy reorganising their own star cruisers and are probably still in the early stages of designing larger vessels we see in the Sequels, so they have provided a temporary design to keep the peace.

The ship looks likes that missile boat in empire at war

Face on this ship has a smaller engine profile than usual. Engines are safe and so are the hangers. This ship is effective in a fight as it can focus shields in the front and focus it's real ability on the skirmish with many light craft.

"For the porpoise of this war..." LOL! I love you guys.

That's the Home One. I know it currently says 1300 meters, but back in the day it was considered to be longer than a Star Destroyer, being the rebel flagship. In return of the Jedi, as the fighters and craft fly past it before it jumps to hyperspace it was demonstrably longer than any other Rebel ship in the fleet that fought at Endor. That aside, lets accept that it is 1300 meters, the new ships don't look 1/3rd, they look about 1/2. Perspective matters. That makes them about 600m.

what I love about this new ship is that it looks like a 'democracy.' Each part has an aesthetic from a different alliance group - it looks like it's had it's fair share of compromise

I've seen a lot of sources put the Home One type at over 3km, which would size these up considerably. Though of course with Mon Cal ships the size was always kind of unique.

I love the anti-Tarkin doctrine at play here. Another advantage of having a focus on hangars is that it makes it easier for non-New-Republic ships to dock, which obviously didn't end well this time, but given the NR is trying to have systems set up their own defense forces, it's good to be able to bring them aboard for joint missions and negotiations.

"Peace Laser Beam" absolutely cracked me up

That is one beautiful ship

I’m hoping that that gap in the main hull between the main parts of the ship and the engines is a modular area for freight containers or personnel transport modules, hospital modules,or external racks for quick-deployable fighters (sort of like the Gozanti-class cruisers and the TIE racks). If that’s what these are, this medium or light cruiser could actually be the ideal ship for peace keeping and patrol.

A small capital ship like this, with a squadron of fighters and a few shuttles or light freighters, would be a great hero ship for an ensemble of characters.

1/3 the length, but this porpoise is really wide tho.

Omg thank you someone else finally said it the moncala dude could not hold that blaster what so ever i saw it right away and it as been bothering me ever since.

I didn't think about it too much but the venator is just an aircraft carier

I am glad that someone you have put up some good points in favour of this cruiser. Initially I have been very much against this ship especially when I saw how ridiculously positively people were treating it, but I love the nuanced take here.

1:19 "Fish out of water" LMAO!!!

The ship model is nice, mainly a much better ship for the purposes of the republic, although I would prefer a hammerhead cruiser, although it seems to me that it is exactly the same role

i had the exact same thoughts about the mon calamari

Generation tech going to hit a Milli soon !🎉

at 12:17 you can see 4 gun emplacements around the ATC tower. So it isn't entirely defenseless however anywhere else that gets attacked is going to be vulnerable.

Throwing shade on grapplers! How dare you sir!

It's like a Star Trek star fleet shape design, but textured with the signature Star Wars greeblies.

"OMG WE'RE SO SMART WE PUT THINGS IN PLACES" Adeptus Mechanicus:

I loved spamming the mc30c in EAW FoC lol

It really reminds me more of a Mc30 than a Starhawk. But a Starhawk cameo in Ashoka would be super cool.

Quality writing.

Reminds me of the MC-30c frigates from legends

Why is nobody talking about his "for the porpoise" joke at 8:07

6:13 Wookipedia clarifies this New Republic cruiser "Vesper" is around 1,000 meters in length.

You should take a look at Infinite Lagrange, the depth of space combat is something awesome

I still don't understand why there were no security droids onboard instead of organic soldiers. The ones from the Mandalorian seemed capable enough for the task (of being the plot's cannon fodder)

Well that was just a prison ship not a warship

When I first saw the captain and crew, I thought this was some NR ship out on a leisurely patrol that the sith were going to raid for intel. When I realized it was a prisoner transfer ship, I was flabbergasted. I know it's just for plot reasons, but seeing the captain act the way he was is a total facepalm moment for me. He did the equivalent of stopping your prisoner van because someone in a shoddy CIA uniform was holding out their thumb, and then letting them aboard without even asking their name.

He also come in the hangar with a full security details fully knowing that they were fraud and ready to arrest them and interrogate them later...unfortunely they were really force wielder (an extreme rarity at the time, really there are probably a dozen of them in the entire galaxy so in all honestly the captain reaction has been pretty much normal), so while arrogant it was also prudent enoung to go there prepared and his action will be enough in all normal circumstance

Very funny and spot on!

I never knew Wedge came back, wow

Please look up the MC30 mon cal light cruiser. They carried armament typical for frigates or LT cruiser of the era. IIRC 16 turbo lasers and a modest amount of laser cannons. Plus some ordinance launchers in the front. Good shielding and average armor for a ship of its size.

Always happy to see new republic moncala ship videos :) really wanna buy some armada rebel ships and paint them white

The ship is pretty cool looking. Very much like a hybrid Mon Cal/Corellia design. But the big point in big ships like this is to look like you can defend the area you are in, which means visible weapons. You don't do much for the moral of systems you claim you can protect when you send huge passenger liners to visit them to show your strength.

Damn that is a versatile ship

I know it was just an off-hand comment. However, I feel it made sense that the Empire concentrated its resources on big vessels like Star Destroyers since it ruled more through intimidation. Its focus was on keeping potentially rebellious planets pacified, as opposed to maintaining security against pirates and smugglers. There is a certain prestige and threat from seeing a single Star Destroyer, that isn't quite the same as seeing a few frigates. Sure, it can only be in a fewer places but like I said - the Empire ruled by intimidation. Knowing that the Empire has them and could bring one into your sector if it chose to, was sufficient.

From the front it reminds me of the Olympic Carrier from the Battlestar Galactica episode 33. s01e01

the comment about not seeing weapon implacements. I have to add after noticing on the fly throughs there are 4 laser battery's arround the tower after of the ship and likely other defences in that area to protect the hanger bays and control tower the forward looks to just rely on the armor plating and shielding to screen what an effective fight screen misses as looks like there is nothing on the forward section of the ship.

It's a ship from Empire at War, might be upscaled a little. Also pretty sure the MC80 shown in the series was Home One. May have been its sister ship though.

We should talk about the z95 headhunters on Lothal

What happened to the Mandalorians during the FIRST ORDER? Can you make a video? Love the channel. Thanks for all the vida

You were giving Morty vibes when talking about the mon Cala haha

Haven’t watched the show, but it looks similar to the MC-30 Torpedo Frigate

Fun thx

It's an older code but it checks out

ship reminds me alot of the mc 30 in apperance.

There are four turbo lasers around the communication tower!

That looks like a barely retooled Munificent class ... only thing it's missing is the spire at the top and the brown paint

MC-15 light cruiser. 600 meters long. Served as a durable screen for the larger MC 75-90. It's existed for decades.

Did I have a stroke or did I hear this right? "...Civic buildings underwater I mean for the porpoise of this war don't get me..." well played, well played.

Yeah I even noticed these discrepancies when I saw this scene and I was like this is totally not the way I would do it.

I wanna see a version of this ship with a full interior hanger, with all the hanger ports connected on the inside in an extremely large hanger.
