10 Best Bounty Hunting Ships in Star Wars Galaxy

[@gameman7871]

Honestly the razor crest served its purpose and I think people forget that one of the main reasons why he used it was because it was so old it didn't need a tracking registration (I forget what the actual terminology was but that's practically what it was). Also no one ever talks about it but it had a little Carbon Freezing unit which from what I can tell at least wasn't very common and would let him take several prisoners without needing holding cells.

1:32 this, the Lancer Class, the fact that it is popular among trouble makers implies that it must be highly customizable and therefore very versatile (surmising too much I might be?) It sounds like the kind of ship I could feel comfortable calling home.

[@ramonfernandomirandanoguei365]

No man you are totally right, the Lancer Class is my favorite ship of this list by far! It was created by Mandalmotors a Mandalorian company in partneship with the Black Sun that alone tells you enough, the ships were designed to outperform and outrun freighters/patrol ships, and hold it's own against fighters. But it was also one of the cheapest ships of its type you can find and also very cheap to maintain and repair, it's interiors being designed to be highly customizable. It had a targeting system developed by the Mandalorians, that was one of the best of its time, which made the precision of the weapons much higher than most other ships. It's speed is the same of that of the Falcon, but with slightly inferior hyperdrive of course the Falcon it is a highly modified vessel, a normal YT-2400 it's worse than the Lancer in pretty much everyway. The shields were also pretty good, it had a tractor beam for boarding other vessels, i think i made my point but just one more thing, it's one of the few ship with a bathroom lol!

[@crazyeyez1502]

I still stand by my thought that the RazorCrest was s good ship. It just needed a better maintenance plan, and a severe overhaul and update.

[@noneedtoknow07]

So a brand new version?

[@crazyeyez1502]

Not necessarily a whole new version, like how auto manufacturers bring out a newer generation of a car ever few years, comparing a 2019 c7 corvette to a 2020 c8 model. But take an old car and rebuild/replace the engine and patch all the rust holes in the chassis.

Cad just seemed like a massive downgrade in comparison due to his design and voice, and due to how badly they've fucked to Grevious and how bad the writing & dialogue were in the few episodes I've managed to see, I've not had a lot of positive things to say about the show itself.

[@patrickracer43]

"They were a danger to themselves and others" I mean, that didn't stop Anakin Skywalker from joining the Jedi Order... *air horns*

[@casbot71]

The *Ghost* (or any Corellian smugglers favourite light freighter) would be very effective. Just give the Ghost some ion weaponry and maybe improve the main hyperdrive speed rating. The same sort of ship that's used for smuggling and convert ops is ideal for Bounty Hunting, as the mission requirements are similar. And the best aspect of using a ship that's commonly modified for smuggling is that you can blend in with the lowlife scum you're hunting. Arriving at a space port in the most popular Bounty Hunter ship is going to make your job harder as it'll tip off everyone who has a bounty on them … and even if they are not your target they may blow you up as you approach. As well there's a established aftermarket in giving your ship smuggling upgrades (and pirate upgrades) that are also needed for Bounty Hunting. And who says that a bounty hunter can't do a little smuggling on the side? Even if they do get caught by officials (very unlikely) they could always claim they're only doing a smuggling job to try to get close to a target. The ultimate rogue - a _Bounty Hunter/Smuggler/Pirate._

[@MsSteelphoenix]

Absolutely! I love the YT-series for exactly that reason, so ubiquitous and versatile.

[@douglasroberts3]

"My" Bounty Hunter uses an internally modified Lambda shuttle. Mainly due to the fact that he is pursuing bounties in Imperial Warlord Space as he trackes the former Imperial Officers behind the Mandalorian purge. I like having a backstory for my cosplay....lol

[@Zakvadr1995]

Personally, and if money was no expense, I’d take a YV-666 (Hounds Tooth) model with a Forward facing dual set of medium cannons, twinned ion cannon, a fore mounted Diamond-Boron missile launcher, a rear mounted Quad cannon with a Seismic mine layer. In addition, I would increase the shield capacity and overhaul the short range sensors to long range. A “ghost” ID reader to hide the ships ID would be quite useful as well. Inside would have a full weapons locker with gear and various armor sets (never know if you’re going to need to sneak into a Imperial Compound), a carbonate freezer, several bunk rooms (Allies on jobs help) and extended storage bay for those off hand smuggling/escort operations. Depending on other situations, more medium-heavy cannon the better.

[@aureum7479]

I’d replace Bossk’s Skinning Table with a small med bay, with a 2-1B surgical droid. If I didn’t use the training room then I’d use that for the Med Bay and use his Skinning room for a concealed armoury, with gas for blasters and perhaps some cargo with grenades/explosives.

[@sunhunter0914]

I'd probably use a YV- 929 armed freighter They've got more than enough space to make a prison and keep bounties And the weapons and armor on this bad boy is quite good I know the Empire eventually banned them because of how much weapons these bad boys were packing and the fact they were soo accessible but as long as you have the purchase papers that prove that you legally bought it before it was banned it's all good If not... Just carve your way out

[@dreamingflurry2729]

It is SLAVE 1 - not Slaaaave! Bobba Fett (and Jango before him) named the ship thus because they saw it as a tool totally under their command! Unlike many other hunters Bobba Fett loved his ship, but he wasn't super attached to it! Hell in legends he made do with other ships on several occasions!

[@TheAtomicCross]

He pronounces it in not getting demonitized

[@janickjorgensen2964]

I feel it depends a lot on whether you want to be covert or to have a ship that commands respect. For a ship that will really have a presence and inspire awe, I think a TIE/rp Reaper with a custom paint job would look amazing (if you can get your hands on one). It's got good weapons and shields, loading ramp and decent internal space, while also small and nimble enough to dogfight with if needed. For something a bit more covert, I would pick the GR75. They are so common people would not pay a lot of attention to them, and external cargo racks can be used to mount modified containers that conceal missiles, mines and holding cells. Another benefit is it's a good cargo hauler so maybe some trading as a side business.

[@MadnessHEROReverend]

As always I would pick a heavily modified Corellian HWK-290 light freighter, like the *Moldy Crow*. Like most Corellian designs it is easy to modify. With four wing mounted laser cannons, an optional dual ion cannon turret and flight capabilities that put it on par with an X-Wing, I feel it is hard to overlook the ship that carried *Kyle Katarn* through most of his Bounty Hunter/mercenary career.

[@logannichols5848]

I'd use a corrilian Corvette. They are common and can blend in. They are large enough and modular so they can have hangers, holding cells, although I prefer carbon freezing. It just saves on space. The one area I'm worried about is speed.

The rotating wings were to help stabilize it, and also helped the aesthetic factor by looking aggressive and menacing. It also boasted an ion drive that rivaled the A-Wing for speed.

The VCX-100 LIGHT FREIGHTER- The ship I think could easily become a become a bounty hunting ship As well as the ability to both smuggle and do legitimate transportation of goods On the side. Frankly it's my all around favorite ship and Star Wars which is kind of surprising to me since there's been a lot of really iconic ships out there that have grown to love so it's surprising to find my favorite ship favorite ship in the Disney era of Star Wars. This ship has so many Amazing features And frankly all around just practicallity. That made me just fall in love with it. It's definitely the one thing that I probably enjoyed the most about the Star Wars Rebels TV series was seeing that ship in action. It seems to outclass the millenium Falcon in every possible way. Has better armor better Shields better maneuverability better speed. Definitely better weapons and frankly the design is way more pleasing to the eye. I've always loved that how George Luke is based a lot of his ships on World War II planes. The ship continues that. Definitely if I was bounty hunting or going around the Galaxy is doing any sort of job the VCX 100 light Freighter would be the ship I would do it with. Not only because it could pretty much handle almost any job it comes across. I also just like the fact that the ship is actually Livable. I like the idea of ships being almost like space RVs. Where it's both a mobile home but also a way to work to make Money. This ship can do that pretty comfortable with a crew of 4 to 6. the fact that it's just heavily customizable and heavily armed it's pretty nice too.

Depends on what I have by way of crew. If I have at least two crew mates I’d go for the VCX-100 with the accompanying fighter. If I’m running solo I’d be trying to work my way up to a GX1 Short-Hauler but probably kicking off in some kind of cheap gunship that has a hyperdrive and room for at least four passengers.

[@RB-NZ2]

I was wondering why you kept calling slave one sla-ve one then I got the joke

[@BensBrickDesigns]

Yeah, some aren't.

[@mr.mrs.ballard7002]

My favorite is the Lancer -class pursuit ship, Shadowcaster and Banshee.

[@maxime2445]

Are you saying slave one that way because of the algorithm? Can't you say it without demonization or something?

[@Texansfan254Jeff]

Take your pick of Corellian light freighters and give them a weapons package that of a bounty hunter.

[@thesharpercoder]

Disney did not change the name. Disney purchased LucasFilm, which did not own the rights to the name “Slave 1”. The name “Slave 1” has never been used on screen, and is probably owned by Bantam Books, or some other publisher.

[@whateveryoda]

The name “Slave-1” was used in the Clone Wars show by Aurra Sing.

[@yaboi5932]

If I was a bounty hunter I'd try and find an old LAAT Gunship. The variant designed for space travel. A few modifications and a Droid copilot later and BOOM got yourself a decent bounty hunting ship.

[@scottsanders4589]

I believe that the Halo is the ship in the last Star Wars movie that everybody confused with the razor crest

[@andrewlim9345]

Thanks for the review of these ships.

[@marshalllatta2073]

Having a bounty hunter ship will be so cool to have Just to be alone and do your job the way you wanted to

[@justadogobeingdogo5766]

I’ve been looking forward to this!

[@eighterthabest9024]

I really don't think actual Slavic people have anything to do with why some didn't like the name....

[@13lackhood]

Ohh yeah, but political correctness, causes so much bad sadly that even a sci-fi/fantasy fictional universe has to tow the line.

[@steelshanks1265]

It's not, that's the joke... It's Slave 1, but you know, can't have anything to do with slavery anywhere...

[@b003]

I like that Pelagia class "Moomo" gunship but it looks like a deck or two disappears depending on how it's drawn.

[@brydon5721]

I will never understand the hype over the Slave 1, it always seems like a really impractical craft to me.

[@tba113]

You're not wrong, it is impractical. Otherwise, it would have found a larger market instead of selling the bare handful of ships the Firespray class actually managed. Instead, the manufacturer pretty much dropped the design like a hot rock and moved onto other product lines that offered a better mix of cost and performance. Obviously the Fetts managed to upgrade their Slav-1 to practically legendary status, but they sank decades and a fortune into after-market mods to get it to dance like that. I mean, if someone _wants_ to sink Lamborghini-level money into upgrading a box van, they will probably get impressive results from it, but there are cheaper and more effective ways to reach that goal.

[@jonathansullivan6706]

Very true. I think that the love for it can be lent due moreso to its novel design than its practicality.

[@ranger3576]

@@tba113 It’s like that video of a pickup truck out racing a Lamborghini. The truck(like Slave 1and also the millennium falcon) was so heavily modified that it probably would’ve been cheaper to just use a Lamborghini instead.

[@epicnipple8746]

Because it’s unique and awesome and the rapid fire cannons and seismic charges sound sick.

[@Macky4941]

First time hearing about the Broken Wing, very neat looking ship!

[@avgjoegaming8271]

Suggis doesnt seem that good. It's basically razer Crest from the look Was it slav eh or slave 1. They still had slavery in star wars Overlapping fire isnt bad but blocking other weapons is. The razor Crest would be amazing if din could afford to maintain it. He had a carbonite station and an armory with decent cargo size. It's just he decided to pick a fight with everyone. A bit light on weapons though

[@oogaboogadoogadooga7530]

He was calling it slav eh as a joke

[@AngryEwok]

@@oogaboogadoogadooga7530 and the joke is stupid.

[@schizophreniagaming1187]

Thanks man, I was about to start my bounty hunting career, this video really helped!

[@Vidiocity92]

"I can see how it would be offensive to Slavic people." Nice!

[@ondrejm5042]

Im a slavic person, my country is called Slovakia. Im not offended at all on the name Slave I (actually "Otrok" in translation to my language). For me this ship is forever called Slave I and i even refuse to support/purchase merchandise which does not use it correct name as i already own tens of merch with this correct name.

[@adeptuscustodies8203]

Please make a video where the galactic republic with the jedi attack earth

[@jkb2016]

Gunships in general seem to be a good choice for bounty hunters. Btw. I'm slavic and I don't have the slightest problem with the name "Slav E1".

[@sageg58]

Did they actually change it's name?

[@tba113]

_They_ think they did. They haven't really convinced the fans to adopt the new name, though, so I don't think they managed to actually change anything.

[@AngryEwok]

No, they didn't. Just idiots in the interner cryied for no reason, becaus on LEGO set box it was "Boba Fett ship"

[@AngryEwok]

@@tba113 they didn't nothing. Noone changed it. Noone conviced anyone. There is no any new name

[@sheevpalpatine2128]

No but if they tried they would Streisand effect everybody into realizing boba fetts ship is called Slave I no matter what 😁

[@johnbhend8565]

Thank you Alan. Great video. Love the channel.

[@MonkeyBanjo7]

I am confused he said slave 1 wrong or is he saying slave wrong because your not allowed on youtube to say Slave?Or is it his Accent?

[@LongTail8443]

I think momoo wawaa is easy to remember and it seems pretty cool.

[@andrewtatescigar7122]

Hehe ster wers

[@andrewtatescigar7122]

Btw I’m first so yay

[@MrRonald327]

Speed and stealth are everything.

[@kuroakigaming239]

My pick would be a HWK-290 Light Freighter with upgraded shields, a few secret smuggling ports for weapon caches, and a psuedo engineering bay in the Cargo Hold. This would be to work on and deploy extra equipment like a custom speeder bike with detachable weapons, the equipment to maintain and build weapons, and of course enough space for a few small smuggling runs of less illicit cargo.

[@GuntherRommel]

Slav-eh 1. You absolute LEGEND.

[@byronlaws7193]

If I hadn't already subscribed...I would have bestowed the honour at your apt description of why the name Slave-1 deserves to not be cancelled by current-year outrage mobs. While you had to parse your words, your message was clear enough...and agreed.

[@BeastOrGod]

One of my favourite designs of the really obscure ships is Vigo. It looks so good.

[@CHANN3L_NAME]

The squid ships would make very nice bounty hunter ship

[@coinwolf1990]

Id probably use a modified yv-865 Aurora class freighter its big and plenty of storage could easily be a home.

[@ochiamu]

Probably a YT-2400. It's not too big but it's spacious enough to live out of, and it's common enough not to draw attention.

[@raven_88]

Finally Hell's Anvil makes it on a Star Wars ship list. It has been my absolute favorite ship ever since I first played Bounty Hunter way back in the day. I'd choose the Hell's Anvil every single time.

[@Blackstonelegion]

Idk how good of a Ship this would be for Bounty Hunting but I have a Personal Love for the Republic Gunship, It probably wouldn't be a Good ship for Bounty hunting due to its relatively smaller size compared to other Bounty Hunter ships especially if I had Planned to capture my targets Alive

[@matthewwhite9643]

Yv 560 upgraded with medium twin ion cannon. Two twin rapid fire linked tamin bak laser cannons. Upgraded sensor array and signal jammers , a cloaking device, a cylindrical quad torpedo launcher and a better targeting system software to give single person control over all the weapon systems.
