in today's video, let's observe as many Star Wars starships as we can, side by side in a city to see how big they really are.
Which ship did I leave out that you want in there for a part 2?
Let me know so I can include it next time.

GOOD DAY SIR!!!!
nice video man
That's like twice as many things than I have now
This video was W anyway
Stormtrooper is my favorite ship model of them all!

That thing could blow up a Death Star by simply flicking it
Eiffel Tower
It is so Iconic
Ah yes, the most famous starship in the entire franchise: The Eiffel Tower

Le French star destroyer.... it shoots bugeute torpedoes
Oh mon dieu ! Our secret weapon is discovered !!!
And also *STORMTROOPER*

None of the comments (scrolled a few pages and didn’t see one) recognizes the effort required to model all of these ships in 3D, and to this level of detail… Incredible work!
Agree. Beautifully presented. Thank-you for your amazing work.
Certainly just got them on 3d model workshop

For non nerds, making this on a computer is the same as me getting hot girls. I don’t know how to even start making this.
So glad that you resisted temptation to add Starkiller Base. Which was basically a partially hollowed out planet.
Luke ramming the Eiffel tower into the death star is how the rebels won.
LOLOLOLOLOL
Yeah totally.
“Sir our systems seem to be becoming baguettes and rotting away”

I think you mean the Soviets and their Tesla Troopers
Honestly when they said the ships were designed after navy battleships and warplanes, they really meant it. I mean look at the “medium sized destroyers”, looks like they can float on water or belong at sea, just futuristic.
You can definitely tell the Naboo royal ship was based on the Blackhawk
@@ntfoperative9432 Lockheed SR71 Blackbird you mean?
Funny because in one depiction the Acclimator did actually land in the sea.
I like the fact that you went back through them from Biggest to Smallest.

I really enjoy the logic and philosophy behind the classic SW starships designs. On the rebel side there's x-wing, shaped like a letter X (even though there are no latin or cyrillic alphabet presented lol) and used for dogfighting, y-wing, shaped like Y, that carries bombs, A shaped a-wing, that is interceptor. On the imperial side there are tie-fighter, tie-bomber, tie interceptor - little starships sharing Twin Ion Engines technology. I mean this is just cool.
The dislikers did not actually dislike the vid, they were just stormtroopers aiming for the like button.
same goes for this comment I guess

It really puts into perspective how big of an achievement a single x-wing destroying the Death Star really was.

@@grayski3324 if you can somehow safely suck up a star to use as a power source, you have shields strong enough to protect against nuclear strikes
@@ducky36F Didn't stop one button from being pushed to lower all the shields (idk how no one in the FO noticed) and have the entire deathstar planet get destroyed. To bad this didn't hurt them at all in the next film.
This really puts size into perspective!! My only issue is that some of the earlier ships have inconsistent size comparisons when put next to the stormtrooper. Some of the cockpits look like they'd fit an average pilot perfectly and some cockpits look either too small or too big
That's because star wars vehicles are based on WW2 planes, and all different sizes... If I'm correct, germans commonly used very tight spaces inside their planes and tanks, like the jagdpanzer 38 that was a very small and tight vehicle that had a crew of 4 people, while planes like USA's P47 enjoyed a larger comfy space inside the cockpit compared to the BF109. So that's really not an inconsistency from star wars side.
@@kingofchrisyou sound like a history teacher no🧢
For some the cockpit glass might look huge, but you cant discount how much space the control console takes in there. The ratio is pretty nuts in an x wing.

This video was good. I always wanted to know all the starships and what the size are. I know they’re huge but I had trouble trying to scale em up. Thanks!
What's quite sad, is to imagine that the Death Star might have had 300,000+ souls on board when it was destroyed and that Luke would have felt them all turn off when it was destroyed. 😭
“I feel disturbance in the force as if millions of voices cried out in terror and we’re suddenly silenced”
It had nearly 2 million people on board!
@John Hightower what's sadder is that you can't really emotionally connect to a film you watch. Of course it is fiction, so no one died, which is why I said "imagine" and also you'll note, if youve watched the films, that Obi Wan felt all the deaths from Alderaan so its only film logical that "Luke would have felt them all turn off" as well. Maybe you should take some more time for reflection, I do it, it helps me alot.
Well, Alderaan had trillions of life forms living on it. The lives lost on the Death Star are pretty insignificant compared to the destruction of an entire planet.

1:34 is not a Droid starfighter it's a TIE bomber
I like how things like the lucrehulk battleship are called "Droid command ship" but the second ship wasn't even labeled as a jedi interceptor
I'm just glad they didn't call the Venator class Star Destroyer the "Jedi Cruiser". I'm not usually a violent person, but that gets me going.
Lucrehulk class battleship and Lucrehulk class Droid Control Ship are two different classes. They are both modifications to the original Lucrehulk class which is a freighter. In the end, they all look virtually the same.
I never realized how many variations of the classic TIE Fighter design were out there. That's so cool!

I thought that too!!
Dayum this is pritty cool!! Im surprised the malevolence, the sepratist dreadnaught and the hammerhead were not here. Had no idea there was a slightly bigger version of the Imperial Star Destroyer. Awesome video!!
One thing I noticed is that the xyston is really just a upscale model of the star destroyer you first used, which is an Imperial 2. The Xyston was based on the imperial 1
They forgot to add in the Separatist fleet ship from The Clone Wars.
Imagine just everything is double the size. All the crew looking like children in there
That's quite literally what they were behind the scene's, they just took the SDD model used in Rogue One with only minor modifications scaled them up a bit. They were frankly rather lazy about the whole thing...

@@cadestipsandtricks46 I would happily die at the hands of a star destroyer

Morale not moral.👍
@@simplysteve68 thx for that mate.
That was the general idea behind the Tarkin doctrine.
And yet they were the most useless ship against them
Ships in halo were larger except supremacy and probably the executer. Not counting large constructions like the rings or ark. I am talking about ships. Main reason I was watching this video and one for the halo ships was to get the truth for of size comparisons for crossovers. Most recent one I read. REGULARY STAR DESTORYERS ARENT STINKING 5,000 METERS OR 5 KILOMETERS AS IT SAID WHEN I READ IT.
what i really liked is it shows the diffrence mando really had to get use to when he switched from the razor crest to the N-1 Nabbo starfighter and when the woman who gave him it ( i cant remember her name rn) said its not a gunship its a star fighter and you gotta treat her like a starfighter...

@@Historegon what do you mean obviously the Druid army used to bombers are their star fighters smh
Going through a rough time right now this video cheered me up.
I really enjoyed seeing the Boba Fett’s Starfighter labeled as the Slave I. All I would say is that Darth Vader’s Advanced Tie should have been called the, “Tie Advanced XI” and the millennium Falcon as the Corellian Starship, Han’s was just a modified version of it… if we were going to talk about Starships and not personal ones.
Oh shut up and stop being pedantic. Ships like the Millennium Falcon or Vader's Advanced Tie Fighter are iconic and that's how most everyone knows them. To just give them generic names like "the Corellian Starship" or "“Tie Advanced XI”" would have been immensely stupid and just cause a lot of mindless complaining from viewers.
@@MrRobarino You are quite agressive in your response to such a peaceful commentary. What this person said was rather interesting, never knew that more ships like Millennium Falcon existed. Would’ve been a cool touch, although of course it is okay as it is now as well
Come on... The Millenium Falcon is the Millenium Falcon! Did you ever see another "Corellian Starship"?? And i also think exactly it is called a Corellian Freighter!😜

It's really informative to compare and contrast the sizes of spaceships even from different generations and times,but one thing that i believe would make your videos even better.would be if you put an average sized human next to ALL vessels not just the first one or two....as it'd show at a glance the immense sizes of the vessels.
