As an aviation fan and former PPL pilot and I firmly believe the saying “if it looks right, it flies right” I’ve always loved the Lamda, it looks right and looks like something Lockheed Martin might actually make someday. It’s cockpit has good forward visibility with one large window rather than several smaller windows that had small blind spots, there was a fatal crash where a DC9 hit an F4 phantom because neither saw each other so few blind spots are ideal. The nose also droops down for good ground visibility (like Concorde on landing) making landing in a small area easier. The wings and rudder give it greater control authority in atmosphere and the fact it has twin engine reliability is also a bonus in terms of making it back to friendly lines if one of the engines hit or has a failure. In short it’s in my top 10 Star Wars ships I’d love to fly.

@ArcticWolf00Alpha04 ай бұрын
That’s the case with any military vehicle in real life though. It’s not exactly a bad thing. Realistically the Lambda shuttle pilot would never drop his troops off in an LZ (Landing Zone) that was hot anyway. If he had to drop troops off during battle then he would get at a safe distance away from the gunfire and offload the troops and they would walk the rest of the way into the battle. And if the Lambda ship had to evacuate troops it would land at an LZ and use its blasters or another squad of troopers already on board to suppress the enemy troops with gunfire until all friendly troopers were on board. This is how it’s done in real life.

when I was a kid watching the movies and then reading expanded universe novels I always wanted a Y-Wing or an A wing if I was really in the mood for some speed. Just thought the Y wing was the coolest fighter and figured the two seater would be big enough if I needed to go on trips. Only kinda liked things like the Falcon because Han and some other prominent characters used light freighters. As an adult with kids and a sore back? Yeah something like these space minivans (shuttle) or space truck (light freighter) make WAY more sense to me. Those darn kids and old people trying to relive their youth can have those overpriced death trap fighters.

I think he dropped the ball on this one. The reason everyone from High ranking imperials, to rebel personnel is using the Lambda shuttle is because like corellian light freighters, the Lambda shuttle is well designed with utility in mind. Depending on the configuration, the Lambda shuttle can do almost anything. I did not realize this until I gave one to my group in a roleplaying game. I fist gave them the ship for the same reason the rebells use it, as an infiltration vessel. But then I, or should I say we, discovered all the cool features it has. It has strong armor, shields, weapons and a descent sized cargo bay that can easily be modified for whatever you need the shuttle to do. In stock configuration it is a bit on the slow side, but not much, and alike everything else on the ship, can easily be fixed/modified. It is the empires Swiss army knife.

Still, gotta love the Lambda.

I think the B wing is an exception to this. Sure it too has wings that move out into a wider position, but they do that for a purpose as they’re part of the main weapon.

But they’ve also released several snowspeeder sets where the snowspeeder is depicted as white also, even though again snowspeeders are shade of grey not white in colour. Or am I wrong?

Also, the rebels used a miniature version as a fighter (it was basically a slightly downsized shuttle, but was still a shuttle and was considered a lambda variant).

Having long-range dropships would be handy, though I'd say relying on Lambdas and Sentinels was a deliberate doctrinal choice on the Empire's part. Similar to TIE fighters not having hyperdrives because the assumption is they'll be supported by more than just their wingmen, I suspect the theory was that when the Empire shows up somewhere, the standard approach would be to roll in with overwhelming force. That is to say, the Empire's plan is for the troops to have backup from fighters and orbital warship gunnery, not just the battle-taxi they arrived in. Of course, given the inefficiency of the Empire's command-economy model - and a pretty fair degree of corruption on top of that - it's unlikely the Imperial Navy could actually live up to that ideal on a reliable basis.
