IN-DEPTH Breakdown of CR90 & Variants - CR90 Corvette - Blockade Runner - Star Wars Rebels Ships

[@CT-Clone]

There is something about the cr90 that makes is one of my favourite ships....

[@darthdystopian4550]

It's the first ship we see in star wars

[@imppro]

Caleb H Actually the second ship.

[@Gareth-410]

Melese Ghetahun {ImpPro} Nope. It's the first.

[@toby7504]

Its just cool.. My favourite.

[@chrissonofpear1384]

Is apparently scaled down to around 100 metres in TROS (going by page 41 of the Visual Guide)

[@tatsu280]

"And remember: always shoot at escape pods, even if no life is detected. And the force will be with you...always."

[@Quincy_Morris]

Swordfish if they had done that they may have missed the escape pods with people in them. The empire’s gamble was that the escape pods with people in them were far more likely to have the plans. In the chaos of battle you don’t have time to shoot everything. You have to choose your targets. In this case they chose poorly.

[@TheNubis99]

*warcrime lawyer wants to know your location*

[@FantasticPyroclastic]

No..the real reason why they didn't shot is the fact that the movie would have ended right after 10 minutes.

[@articusramos808]

Wasn't the point to retrieve them? I don't want to be killed by vader....or shot out of an airlock....or worse, be Palpatine's new force lighting test dummy. No amount of convincing is gonna change my mind

I love that, during "Rise of Skywalker," a CR90 is in the background during Leia's funeral. It's almost Viking-ish. (Great leaders/warriors buried with their ship.)

[@clonesolar]

@@dtinagliastudios Well, its a copy of Roj AND the writing is terrible. Instead of getting a new villain, they brang back Palpatine. They undid the chosen one prophecy, also Rey killed him so he should to took over him. He cloned himself so why is he on life support? I was like you when I first watched it, then I re watched it and realized everything wrong with it. The sequel trilogy was made for money, they ruined star wars. Rey deflected his force lightning and thats what killed him? Thats dumb. I mean, you can like it, but its dumb.

The CR 90 has so many engine thrusters in the back taking up so much space per ship size you would think it was the fastest ship under sublight speeds instead it's considered reliable because having so many it instead it's considered very balanced.

[@dankuchar6821]

It's even called the blockade runner. It should be the fastest ship in the galaxy. But nope. For some reason it's just average.

[@kyberbricks3781]

You know, I love laying down and watching videos like this, videos that go really in depth on Star Wars. Thanks so much for this video, it’s amazing

[@Xboxcarter443]

This was always my favorite rebel ship because of the start of episode four when it fires backwards

[@articusramos808]

Personal favorite besides the U-Wing. With massive customization choices I can basically turn it into nearly anything i want it to be. It can hold tons of cargo and have enough room to carry a Small army. Given its history I believe it can speak for itself.

[@Hermelu]

Wow seeing this video it just becomes clearer and clearer that this is one of the most well thought through ships in the galaxy. From the escape pods to the armour to the well thought through weaponry - this thing seems like a very safe vehicle to navigate through the Star Wars-Galaxy. Definitely one of my favourites!

[@hermeister3870]

Chris one of the few viable star wars design

[@chrissonofpear3657]

As another Chris, I find myself agreeing.

[@Drakefance5]

Easily my favourite rebel ship, but they will never be anywhere as cool as an ISD. Great vid as usual.

As dumb as it seems, the E is not silent.

[@harrisonwest4032]

nope, thats actually how its pronounced

[@LoneWolf20213]

I think that an additional redundant shield generator and a stronger hull, primarily around the reactor, would make this far more effective. increase the size of the ship to more match the engine's, which is the increased hull, which is modify it to carry around half a squadron of strike craft add some more point defense modules That would greatly improve its tactical application and destructive power, and also carry a full squadron or 2 of troops would be great. make it cheaper and replace the single turbo lasers with the Charger C70's duel turbolaser cannons. and we have a winner

[@thetaker6086]

I would modafy it to be a heavy armored and with a lot of guns

[@azambob34]

Eric Andara me too but I would also modify it to have a few hanger bay as I think having more starfighters to protect my ship is wise in case if there is a group starfighter and/or bomber attacking the weak spots

I think it could use some additional redundant shield generators, and more armor around the reactor. I would also modify it to carry around half a squadron of strike craft, and add some more point defense modules. That would greatly improve its tactical application and destructive power, and be much cheaper and more efficient than just adding more lasers.

What you’re describing is absurdly more expensive. And possibly unfeasible. Also unstrategic. “Yes let’s make our ship who’s best tactical and strategic advantage is it’s speed and make it slower by adding a bunch of bulky armor”

[@CHEF-55457]

It makes me wonder if you could fit an A-Wing in there 1:53 There can also be a way to have more than one starfighter inside the CR90 by removing some of the interior. May have to give up the room that is needed for housing the escape pods. Both armed and unarmed.

[@titushooey3914]

what is your favorite Rebel ship mine is the B Wing for their Fighters and the Nebulon B for their cruisers

[@dugclrk]

This was one of my favorite rebel ship. She seems to have had many variants and with the modular design she could be turned into virtually anything needed. She did seem a bit under armed even for a corvette.

[@atigerclaw]

"Commander *tear this ship apart* until you've found those plans; And bring me the passengers, *_I WANT THEM ALIVE!"_* And so they did. They literally tore that ship apart looking for the plans. That's how Vader wants his orders followed. To the letter, without question. If he says 'tear this ship apart', he doesn't mean 'look in every crevice and crawl space'. He means, quite literally, to forcibly rip every panel off, strip the ship down to the frame, and inspect everything for those stolen plans. And then he had to put up with the Imperial Navy. Oafs like Ozzel, who are so busy second guessing his orders they shoot themselves in the foot by coming out of hyperspace too close to properly set up the cordon undetected, letting massive numbers of rebel forces escape what should otherwise have been a wall of destroyers and TIEs.

[@roguelead72]

Night Crawler was actually modified twice, Wraith Squadron modified to original configuration to accomidate their X-Wings, while moving the TIEs to the escape pod areas.

[@cokeologist_artist3795]

"Remember: never fly without escape pods, and the force will be with you al-" *ad starts playing*

Why is it that non-hyperdrive speeds of all the ships in SW are slower that the average fighter aircraft on earth? Makes them REALLY slow in space when using sub-hyperdrive.

[@SunnyKim_]

Marauder Corvette.... And that Liberator Class Starfighter you still need to do ;)

[@alexboehm3919]

The first ship we see in Star Wars, and an iconic symbol of the rebellion. I wish I had the Lego model of this. Can it dock X-wings and Y-wings internally and externally, or are those to big? And those airlocks at the back on the sides don’t exactly look like airlocks, when I think airlocks I think of 2 doors, not 1

[@chrissonofpear3657]

Usually externally, unless you expanded the width of the midsection.

[@alexboehm3919]

Chris sonofPear ah, ok. Could an A-wing fit internally?

[@chrissonofpear3657]

Difficult. Might need to hollow out the rear section.

[@lexington476]

Definitely a really fun interesting ship, shows up a lot in the novels and the expanded universe. In one of the I think wraith Squadron novels there's a corellian Corvette decked out to carry Tie fighters internally.

[@Sistros]

Love this ship. Great and thorough vid meta =) good word. Hug

[@UncleFester84]

Ok if i had one the first mods to apply would be: 1) Changing the turrets on those pods into point defence guns, something like rapid fire quad laser cannons, then remove the bottom eight little escape pods and put four of the big armed one to mirror the top configuration. 2) Since i would probably use it as an upsized Millenium Falcon the interior would be a cargo/pax combo with the bottom decks for cargo and the top deck with dignitaries rooms turned into a passenger compartment. 3) Finally to need only a minimal crew i'd have as many systems as possible automated and/or manned by droids. Other mods would come with time and use (better shielding, engines, and so on...) but this would be my starting loadout. What would yours be?

[@secretbaguette]

The ATST riding ontop of an ATAT is an interesting concept. Would have been cool if the ATAT could crouch or something, to allow the ATSTs ontop to jump off, which would require better jumping ability for the ATST. Would have been cool to have the ATAT as more of a vehicle and infantry carrier, requiring it to be lower to the ground, bit also still a tank in it's own right.

[@roborex6]

[@droidking3907]

First, I was wondering when you would make a CR90 video and second, I didn’t think the inside and the outside would be big

[@sharkfinbite]

This is purely my own opinion. I think think for a space ship a person should always think, "For all directions," when making anything. Command center, placement of guns, and even in the ship's overall shape too. Think of oval ship, with a long viewing port like in modern fighter air crafts or what you saw in typically flying saucers. They are always designed in a way where the pilot can see in all directions. A U.F.O. theoretically can be argued to be flipped upside down and it would still not make a big difference. (It doesn't have a true topside because both sides can be flipped to be used as a topside). In space there is no sense of top or bottom. You won't be fighting people like sailors on water. You'll have people coming in from all directions. Why not build your ship and everything else to be flexible in all angles ;)

[@camoogoo]

0:50 Interestingly also as tall as an ATST standing on top of an ATAT standing on top of an ATST

[@zebjensen4251]

Ya it might be equal in price to 58 ties. But you would likely need most of those times yo take this thing out. So quality over quantity.
