Honestly, the TIEs and other fighters act nothing like they do in the movies or books and are, if I'm remembering right, exceeding their design parameters. In addition, the defensive fire from the Star Destroyer, which is not done automatically but is instead done by manned stations, is too accurate. I'm beginning to think some rabid Star Wars fanboy designed these fighters and intentionally ignored their canonical specs to make them OP in this.

Leaving the job to people whose allegiance is to the United States, rather than the president and his family/allies/cronies. People who know what they're doing, with experience in their fields, rather than installing a Pentagon exec whose credentials are "helped me try and overturn the election result", and a CIA director whose credentials are "helped purge the CIA of political wrong-thinkers", and who believes in not sharing intelligence info with the incoming administration.. not good.

So…star destroyers can’t fly over shallow water because of a draft issue, does this mean they have a simulated hull on the water underneath them that can’t be seen but still needs the right water depth? Is that why you don’t seem to be able to hit it with ship launched anti ship missiles, because they are trying to lock onto the invisible hull on the water underneath it?

They also held 12 At-St's (the scout walkers), and several shuttles. A Tie Fighters had 2 light lasor canons and could do about 1012 miles per hour atmosphereric. Tie Interceptor had 4 m. Lasor canons, and 2 light lasor canons, they did about 1275 mph atmospheric and had better maneuverability and scanars/radars.
