Right! It’s big enough you could put a customized power core in to run all kinds of hidden or otherwise custom weapons and you could even dock star fighters to the bottom or hidden in modified cargo pods, depending on if you wanted to run incognito or wanted to show your strength as a deterrent). Also the Gozanti-class cruiser is large enough to use as a base of operations for a decent crew and do cargo jobs as cover or as extra income.

Speed is life... Put your faith in engine modifications and not in weapons. If you can't outgun it with basic weapons... outrun it. Also, if you have good weapons, contact means you have a decision to make. Fight or flight? If you know your weapons are crap, you will always run, immediately. Without weapons, the decision process is simpler and you are gone before the other guy can draw a bead. Preprogram three escape vectors before you drop out of hyperspace and have your hand on the lever when you drop in. Extra weapons could also be difficult to explain to the authorities if you get snagged by an Imperial ship. Faster engines mean faster deliveries and the ability to outrun pirates. That explanation will make sense to the cops. Big guns = big problems.

@@michaelkeha You won't be going toe to toe with a Corellien Star Destroyer in a small ship. You run or you're done, son. The more armor you have, the slower and easier to catch you'll be, or you will go broke buying fuel to power your engines to move all of that mass around. I like the Lotus principle, lighter weight, more power, ridiculous amounts of speed and maneuverability. Enter the system and scan for other ships where they don't expect you. If you see trouble, hit that hyperspace window ASAP and try again someplace else. The survivors have light ships with adequate firepower, energy shields, and massive power to weight ratios. They burn the fuel fast and hard to go really fast only when they need to. They also blend in when parked in a space port in the middle of nowhere. Draw less attention by looking normal. No one will know what you have under the hood. Hidden weapons are also a great idea.

I'm not gonna knock The Hound's Tooth's Bounty Hunter level of versatility. It's an amazing ship! Aesthetically speaking, I wouldn't touch this ship with a 39 1/2 foot pole, it's just not my style. I'm more of the "as functional as it is beautiful" crowd, so the Naboo designs are peak for me. One of my favorite things about Star Wars is that if you got the cash, then any ship can be customized to your liking, for the most part. Meaning any ship could potentially rival The Falcon, but not every Bounty Hunter or Smuggler is going to have that amount of cash.

When talking about its size i think you may be overthinking how incredibly thin the main fuselage is, it's shown in the clone wars to only be about three people shoulder to shoulder wide

@captin3149 8 ай бұрын

2:57 and 3:45 and 3:56 seem to contradict that. Probably some sections are thinner than others, but there are at least a few rooms that are larger than three people wide. Also while thin it was also tall, three decks would allow a lot of space, just oriented differently.

@coltnichols4502 8 ай бұрын

Well the first one's in the cockpit which is definitely wider than the rest if the ship which can be seen from the outside. As for the other two that's a different much larger ship from the episodes of the clone wars where Ahsoka is hunted by Trandoshans. And for the rooms, I love star wars but there's always been a thing of just saying 'oh yeah its got this, this, and this' without thinking out if that could actually fit in there

I like the YV-666's utilitarian design, but I just can't reconcile the claim that it's a CEC product. It along with other YV ships don't resemble Corellian designs at all. They're boxy instead of curved, tall instead of flat, integrated internal engines instead of massive external ones, etc. My headcanon is that the YV-series hails from a different shipbuilding company like MandalMotors or Ubrikkian Industries, attempting to compete with CEC in the light freighter market.

I was always confused by the side view in the Essential Guide to Vehicles and Vessels. When you look at the engine nozzles (what you can see of them, they're half-obscured by the maneuvering fins), they appear to be pointing up, rather than towards the back (i.e., the way they're shown at 2:54). And when you look at the ship as shown at 5:51, you see the same thing. The ship apparently flies "downwards" by default, which just makes the maneuvering fins (at least, in the default positions in which they're shown) even more pointless.

Perhaps maneuverability would be a good topic for a future video. The references escape me, but I’ve always understood that space in Star Wars isn’t exactly vacuum. I recall X-wings having a component referred to as “aether rudders” or something like that. It would explain so many ships having wings, despite being space vessels. You definitely have much more EU knowledge than I though, so maybe that’s a topic you could shed light on

The Houndstrooth is big, but it's extremely extremely narrow. So that makes for a weird parking footprint, and the internal floorplan has gotta be really cramped and weird for storing things. I'm really not sure how the 7-95 is supposed to fit in there, the only explanation I've seen is that it's somehow parked outside the hull in the big empty space in the rear. Or that it's a special folding-wing Z-95? The YV-666 is also a pretty tough ship in the miniatures game, with 9 hull, 3 shield, and a full front firing arc, but it's not very maneuverable, so it needs to be careful not to let anything get on its six
