@@richlisola1 there was a scene where Cain points out to Adama that Pegasus has less crew than Galactica - even though Pegasus is ~50% larger - because the Pegasus has automation. That seemed to imply that the guns required crews on Galactica. That's the one place I figure where automation would cut down crew size. Even with some aspects automated, they'd still need a sizable hangar crew to fix up and re-stage retrieved Vipers. I kind of imagine it as like the Iowa-class battleships - there were aspects of automation to get the powder and shells to the guns, but there was still a need for crews at the guns themselves. Galactica was an old girl - built in a time when there was a fear of what Cylons could do to automated systems.

It was not until about a month ago that I realized that all of those weapons emplacements have a bubble cockpit where the gunner sits, with only a (possibly armored?) window between them and hard vacuum, or the deadly round whizzing through that vacuum. It makes sense with Galactica not being networked as a defense against Cylon hacking, but that is a lot of crew dangling out in danger!

Yes because when evacuating Lee says "set batteries into auto cycle B" .. but we dont know if Galactica batteries can be fired from the bridge.. they certainly are manned as we see 2 crew in each with a big viewport.. maybe they can be remotelly operated but at a much less accuracy rate. Galactica was "low tech" but not that low tech.. they still had remote control systems and remote monitoring (as was stated by Tigh Cylon boarders could vent the whole ship from auxiliary damage control) With Galactica it was a more hardwired and basic bulkier isolated systems thing

I would have actually liked to see maybe one or two episodes that were some what dedicated interaction with these crews too. We got to see pilots, control personnel, DC teams, flight crew, hangar deck, engineering, and some of the marines. But we didn't get much interaction with the people behind the guns and it feels like we were cheated out of that. Though on a side note, really impressed that the show did show aging and extensive battle damage with each episode involving the guns. Really emphasizes just how bad ass these people had to be to sit there and take beating after beating from Cylon munitions.

Pity the series misrepresented missiles. Even today's air-to-air missile can easily hit a small and super-sonic target over 20km at Mach two and beyond. In vaccum space, they could potentially reach Mach 20 or something, meaning that even at an range of 20km, it would only take a few seconds for the missile to hit the target.

Considering the number of times we see Galactica hit by a massive warhead, even a nuke or two, I bet the gun crews were the most hardcore on the ship. It's one thing to be on board this thing in combat, quite another to be strapped on the outside of the armor literally designed to take a beating.

It wasnt just the 'main forward guns'. Pegasus's main armament consists of her 'bow battery', 8 forward facing 2200mm (86+ inches!) anti ship guns, and her 'main battery', 60 heavy (but not as heavy as the BB) guns capable of anti-ship or flak roles. She jumped in with surprise, meaning she could bring to bear all 68 of her guns on the first base ship - which although crippled and wrecked did not actually blow up. After surprise was lost, facing 3 fully functional base ships launching volley after volley of nukes, as well as 3000+ raiders, she had to use her main battery entirely for flak to defend herself and only had the 8 guns in the bow battery for offence. However her main role there was to eat the nukes aimed at the crippled Galactica (which at that point was one or two nukes away from going bang along with all humanity's hopes), so she could not bring her bow battery to bear after that first volley.

You are right short of few plot tropes but one thing still bothers me to this days, why they dont use main guns often clearly they are long range and strong enough to destroy cylon ship in one salvo yet they use them once this also point into unlogical Pegasus suicide and why Lee parked ship between base ships when he can quickly snipe them from afar like it dit with first base ship.
@ydoumus4 жыл бұрын
@@Pedgo1986 I believe the reason for that is that the flak point-defence turrets are static. Only the rail guns can actually rotate 360 degrees. Note how Galactica is essentially almost always broadside to enemies - there's a reason for that. If they were ambushed by cylons, who primarily use raiders and missile systems, turning bow-in to fire the main battery would cause a major risk to the ship (lack of flak screen). That's why you see Pegasus use its main battery, because it was the one to make an ambush.

@@ydoumus Ok i understand galactica defense posture thats fine but there were scenes when cylons jumped right before galactica they have time and angle to shoot salvo or two while turning to broadside nevertheless my main problem is still pegasus flimsy suicide. I understand it was for plot but some critical malfunction or sabotage will look better. Pegasus jumped in and instantly shot down base star btw in scene it look like this main battery on pegasus is not only forward pointing nevertheless Lee opt to fly side by side with base star not shooting just flying and beign hit by everything to ram another base star ahead it just make no sense, firstly he is already pointing this crazy guns on enemy just not shooting, he is flying next to basestar and not firing flaks that can shred anything in seconds and again without any fire he just slam into enemy ship.

Measured doses of something grand makes you appreciate it all the more, like singers who hold back their full vocal power and talent until the climax of a song. the space combat is one of the few things that made the show worthwhile to me as it got into the latter seasons. For me it became too much of a soap opera, a convoluted mess of a plot, at times totally incoherent, characters breaking character for the sake of making some new drama, et cetera. I wanted to love the show all the way through, watched it all the way through only for wanting to see how things ended, but the last few seasons were a drag to me. Now a real dream come true for me would be to see massive space battles like this in a Robotech movie series, based on the U.S. animated adaptation in the 80's. That story I'm deeply fond of. Despite some childish elements, there's something sobering about seeing 4.8 million alien warships in a green cloud around the Earth bombarding its entire surface into oblivion that says, "This isn't just for kids." :-)

@Cloud Burst 117 I know that one of the ships is capable of fuel processing. I am aware of any that can produce munitions, coffee and etc. If there are any, they are not in the TV series, but in some comics or something else. Do you have a link or something?

Watching both Battlestars circling while hammering away at the Basestar in the resurrection ship fight was one of the most beautiful scenes in BSG. Get rekt'd.

That's a lot of ammo! For once i would like to see an episode of a crew of any ship that uses ballistic weapons getting materials for ammunition and repairs on those batteries.

They got the ammo in the miniseries (set just before S1E1.). They got material to make more when they captured a tylium asteroid a few episodes later.

But why have a tiny glass cockpit on the cannon instead of some remote control quarter, it just breaks everything.

My mum and dad hates most Sci Fi cuz they cant relate to futuristic space battles with lasers. But they loved the drama and realistic tone of BSG. Using hard shells and cannons and bullets, they give the sense of realistic space naval battle instead of bubbly shields and cute lasers, with actual human pilots fighting and risking their lives in a fighter. I guess in a very very far future we will see more star trek style ships in real life but Battlestars look more relatable to me

i remember the meeting where they discussed how Pegasus would ultimately win if it attacked Galactica. but not before taking probably fatal damage itself. if we watch the show again we will always see Galactica behind Pegasus. Galactica being a broadside vessel when attacking from behind would do some serious damage before Pegasus could even start turning. that said Pegasus was more maneuverable. we also see in one episode both ships broadsiding a base star. ultimately there are enough inconsistencies in the show that we will never truly know which ship would have beat the other, plot armor or not.

The galactica show briefly in blood & chrome would destroy the pegasus hands down.

Kinda curious how they managed to keep getting ammo. I know they stocked up at Ragnar but with all the firing, I'd assume the ammo would run out pretty fast. I haven't watched the entire show (heresy, I know) so maybe it's explained somewhere.

Nah, they should've kept both: _Pegasus,_ being much larger, had factories-probably high tech 3-D printers-aboard to build both _Vipers_ and _Raptors,_ as well as well anything else they needed.

So does anyone here have any idea what the caliber of those guns were? My friend thinks their 500cm Caliber, but I've always thought they're closer to 51cm Guns like those that would've been on the A-150 Super Yamato. Maybe even the 60 cm Caliber from the Karl-Gerät
