[@xELITExKILLAx]

I honestly think the MG-100 Star Fortress gets a bad rap for no reason. What happened in the space battle in episode 8 was a fluke. A TIE fighter just happened to crash inside the ship just when it opened the bag doors which caused all the bombs, strong enough to blow up a dreadnaught, to blow up simultaneously. Then there was a domino effect of debris hitting the other ships nearby. The ship itself packs quite the punch and has multiple gunner positions to protect it. It’s the pilots fault for flying so close together, the ship really isn’t that bad

The Cloud Car looks to be inspired from the F-82 Twin Mustang. That was basically fusing two P-51 Mustangs together. Unlike the Cloud Car, the two pilots of the Twin Mustang could either fly or operate the weapons alternatively. The reason for fusing the two fighters was to increase range, which it did. It actually could fly from New York to Hawaii. One improvement to the Cloud Car is to allow both occupants the ability to pilot and control the weapons. A much more practical solution is simply cut the Cloud Car in half and make each fuselage its own vehicle.

Tie fighters of the empire were just not designed for combat, or use for that matter. I bet they were sold with a disclaimer.

Just a heads up, the delta 7 DID have shields. It was the eta 2 that didnt have shields. Also, the jedi didnt consider either ship a bad combat vessel or unsafe. In fact they jedi mainly used them because their force skills allowed the fighters to be piloted while minimizing its shortcomings. Also, the falcon's failing hyperdrive was a "write-in" and used to give the ship character. It never had structural issues. It was modified to do exactly what Han wanted it to be: able to either out run anything bigger than it OR outgun anything smaller. About the bwing.

To be fair, you can find death traps like those here on earth as well; you just have to go to the outer rim....ie, Alabama. Plenty of cobbled together monstrosities people are riding around in out in the sticks!

[@MonkeyJedi99]

You ever ride in a Datson 240Z with the un made from two care and the engine and transmission from another brand of car? Terrifying. And this was in Massachusetts.

[@MonkeyJedi99]

Oh! I also got to ride in the back of a Dodge Ramcharger that had a floating piece of 1/2 plywood for a floor in the back (about half the size of the floor it was replacing), and I was sitting on two stacked milk crates on that plywood as we took back roads and turns at 45MPH +. How am I alive>

The ski speeder's especially dangerous if you're stupid enough to fly straight at the enemy instead of flanking them.

Got no other choice- the salt speeders carry no armaments.

Any ship that Rose Tico is within a thousand yards of.

She’s an engineer that helped keep the Raddus running...

I consider the cloud cars one of the most beautiful star wars ships. It just didn't make sense to have the twin fuselages.

[@Apoc_Bone_Daddy]

Tie Defenders were amazing though

[@starpilot101]

The B wing was nice. The only problem was the difficulty to fly. Also Y wings were supposed to be safe with the escape pod. But rebels getting rid of the turret was a bad idea.

8:01-8:10 A (potentially) funnier rephrasing. Alan: Although it is one of the most iconic ships in Star Wars, and probably the most powerful in its class...well, let's hear it from the man himself. *switches to scene from Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, where Indy is caught by Panama while trying to...re-appropriate the Cross of Coronado* Indy: THAT BELONGS IN A MUSEUM! Alan: Couldn't have said it better myself.

The z-sector and y-tie looks as if bubba the garage gunsmith made his way to the Star Wars universe

[@TheRomanRuler]

Sigh, i really just want someone to continue Legends universe even if it would be non-canon verse. It was going to such great direction, maturing as Star Wars fans matured.

[@jimbotheassclown]

As Star Wars fans matured ? A New Hope came out in 1977 Star Wars fans are dying of old age .lol

[@quoniam426]

Podracers are also some of the most dangerous things to pilot as any scumbag tactics are allowed to dispose of your opponents and due to their speed, the race route itself can become a death trap...

[@joejoelesh1197]

Looks like the Delta 7 is for me! I currently pilot a Yammy F1, no ABS or computer aided Traction control for me

[@douglasburck1611]

A YT 1300 is only factory spec until it's first owner. That was a major selling point.

[@williammoore1185]

The fact the falcon achieved all it did without proper maintenance shows just how impressive it truly is. Of course if you go by pre disney cannon, the fact it has 3 droid brains constantly sabotaging one another didnt help.

[@kurisu7885]

The main case I could see for an Ugly being a good idea is if you're stranded and that's all you can do to get yourself out of there

[@redj3di781]

Great video. I like the Porkins background screen.

[@chomper720]

Well a ugly can be good if its well made, that is rare tough.

[@davidcannon3515]

that is true, from a mechanical standpoint the idea behind Uglies is a lot like the C.E.C. ships, something that can fly till its hits something; the real problem behind Uglies is that you typically have a desperate/half baked/drunken mechanics teams throwing together combat damaged scraps with little to no time to work out any potential bugs and hoping the welding will hold it together instead of a ship that was built based off of good planning and good parts. Then again, Early E-wings were not that great and they were designed and built by professionals.

Tri fighter, X ceptor and even X Tie ate decent fighters.
