In an interview a few years back, Timothy Zahn said that is actually how he pronounced it and he chose that word because it means "sparkling," which makes sense if the whole planet is a city. If I am remembering correctly, Lucas read it out loud as we hear it in the movies and so that was that.

The Venetor class also supported an “artillery deck” on both port and starboard sides. It was pretty much heavy artillery cannons that were used as casemates. Although, they were only ever useful during broadside engagements at close range, mostly because they had to be aimed manually by a gunner.

[@aaroneasow865]

Oh yeah I saw that on the bad batch show, do u know if these artillery decks were located in the trench in the side or somewhere in the primary command structure.

[@jedironin380]

There have been a few ships presented that didn't have all the weaponry listed, but I think that's a minor gripe compared to all the other work he puts in to these videos. :)

[@chrissonofpear1384]

And the 'ten light minutes' range, by the way, presumably refers to large, hardly mobile targets, also, for the turbolasers. Like whole planets or asteroids, say, with easily predictable paths. As for weapon numbers, some ships will vary. It's implied the Rebels often got cast off Nebulon-B frigates, for example, that may have lacked some guns. Rogue One even adds more turrets to the ones seen there. I assume main batteries/turrets also do have SOME computer aim assist, too.

[@hetzer5926]

@@chrissonofpear1384, most likely they do have some sort of computer assistance. But for the most part, ships in Star Wars seem to almost exclusively fight at ranges where you can visually see the target. Occasionally fleets will engage at long distance but due to the nature of turbo lasers (essentially just plasma hurtling through space) they eventually loose thermal heat, and mass, which taking shields into consideration the shot would to little to no damage. So really their going to be engaging targets within probably a couple thousand kilometers at the most.

[@chrissonofpear1384]

@@hetzer5926 That's pretty much what I assumed anyway, yes. And the 'several light seconds' thing surely refers only to hitting planets, and the like. Heck, in The Last Jedi, the Supremacy looked like it was firing on the Resistance at no more than 50 km, most of the time. Including in Hux's holo display.

Jedi and Republic: "We bring peace to the galaxy" Also Jedi and Republic: STAR DESTROYER

[@mbhaxr6367]

the star destroyer was invented by the sith and then the republic copied their design soooo

[@zacharydoyle9175]

They called them jedi cruiser's.

[@wilhufftarkin8543]

​@@mbhaxr6367 Nope, it was the other way around. The earliest known capital ships that were similar to the star destroyer concept were the Interdictor-class cruiser and the Centurion-class battlecruiser used by the Republic in the Mandalorian Wars. The reason why these ships are more well known as Sith ships is because when Revan and Malak turned against the Republic, they took their fleets with them and created thousands of these ships at the Star Forge. After Revan's and Malak's deaths, these ships continued to be used by the Sith and the Republic simultaneously for a while. The Sith developed this concept further and used it until at least a couple of centuries later (Harrower-class for example), while the Republic dropped this design and forgot about it until they rediscovered it when Kuat Drive Yards created the Mandator-class Dreadnought in 42 BBY. At first, the Mandator was underpowered due to the Rusaan regulations, and it was only used by a couple of wealthy sector fleets, but when the Clone Wars were about to start, the Republic recognized the value of this concept and created smaller but more efficient ships similar to the Mandator and called them star destroyers. To the Republic loyalists and later to the Empire, star destroyers symbolized their ancient heritage and human high culture, while to Palpatine, they symbolized his de facto Sith Empire.

The Z-95 and Y-Wing are excellent fighters and bombers as well. Delta-7 and ETA-2s are excellent nimble fighters for Jedi. The ARC-170 is a decent hybrid fighter/bomber. The V-Wing is like a TIE Interceptor but with an astromech. The only fighter I don't like is the V-19 Torrent, as it's pretty much a large target, but the Republic has a well designed military. None of these come close to the LAAT and Venator though. They're too iconic, and that's why they're everywhere 😂

Each Venator carried huge numbers of crew---all the Pub ships did. I'd like to see a layout or sectional cutaway on any & all Pub ships showing where they housed & fed all the 1000's of crew they carried: officer quarters, officer mess and clone barracks and clone mess (as I'm sure the human officers didn't want to eat with the clones), the medical bay, rec rooms with holo vid for sports & tables for playing games and so on near the barracks probably on more then one deck. Also they'd have pretty extensive gym facilities for all those clones. (newer Navy carriers have 3) Plus where are the showers & heads? (heads = toilets) Plus like a Navy air carrier, they'd also have a barber, a mini PX or BX (store for personal items & snacks) and other amenities. Plus every infantry clone had their own foot locker for their gear & personal items. (Seen in barracks on numerous clone wars episodes.) Where did the infantry keep their stuff?

[@dr.boring7022]

I also wondered about this, because the schematics don't show any rooms. And 420 fighters seems fair, but also a lot. It's smaller than the ISD but is packing far more than it does (not that I take an issue with it. The ISD doesn't consider itself a true carrier.)

[@nerkvititate]

Based on “now” legends concepts and books the troop barracks was around the front near the front generator

[@chrisortega7521]

There’s no way that the Venator had 130-something ACTIS-2A. They would need Jedi pilots for every single one. More likely, they had many more Y-wings, and ARC-170’s.

"Range of 10 light minutes...?" I dont know about that....thats a greater distance then the Earth to the Sun

[@papapalps2415]

Theortical range and practical range are 2 very different things and concepts. For example, did you know that most military weaponry in service IRL actually has an effective range of many hundreds of meters? The problem is, naturally, the human factor. Most infantry engagements in the modern day don't take place anywhere close to that far, simply because of the inherent limitations of how far a human being can shoot with their Mark 1 Eyeball and natural reflexes to an accurate level. Same principle applies to other places as well, including SW. Theres nothing actually theoretically stopping a Venator (or whatever else) from shooting at something several light minutes away, or Christ, a solar system, a sector, a galaxy away, bar the actual dissipation rate of the turbolaser. Whether it will actually do so accurately enough to hit their target is another matter entirely. A stationary or very predictable target like a space station or planet would be very easy to hit from basically ANY range, but an even slightly mobile target is exponentially harder.

[@FlukeyLuke]

@@papapalps2415 i mean, in space, a 9mm handgun could shoot from the space station to the moon and beyond... does it mean you could hit a man floating in space by it? hell no :D

no Sidious only got rid of them to purge all things related to Jedi as the venator was called the Jedi cruisers by the galaxy so he got rid of them they were very good ships and if empire kept them the rebellion would most likely had problems as the venator was very good against star fighters and would have made good star fighter defense cruisers at the least

[@EmeraldForestCat]

@@topgun1457 If Venator was created for space battles, then Imperial is a tool for control over the conquered worlds. He is big, horrendous and can transport almost 4 times more infantry. Of course the air group from Imperial is much smaller, but that is, the causes. If the republic immediately received a huge number of trained clones of pilots and could quickly fill losses, the empire had to train their soldiers from scratch, which is difficult, expensive and not very effective. The same rebels completely quietly exchanged one of their fighter into two or three imperial. Therefore, aircraft carriers like Venator were practically useless for the Empire. However, even this is not a reason to write off thousands of star destroyers in the scrap. But once this is part of the canon, then for such actions there should be an important reason. And the technical disadvantages in combination with low quality assembly look much more convincingly than a certain connection with the Jedi about which almost no one remembered in Episode IV.

So,the venator interior&exterior are finished,tomorrow,i will put here the link of Mediafire to the vídeo of the interior of that.

[@saintpatrick7673]

The Turbo Lasers on a Venator Class can go up to 111,769,438 Miles, ie 10 LM.

[@Savage_Alex121]

Fun fact: the venator is modeled after the shape of a dagger

[@ksanbahlyngwa1998]

Isn't that so with Kuat ships in general.

[@Breadman-k6d]

I just wanted to see where the stationary, manually operated guns along the side were. The ones we see getting blown up in the battle over coruscant.

[@wilhufftarkin8543]

2:03 10 lightminutes are 1.2 au, which means that if a Venator was at the center of our solar system, it could hit a target that's roughly halfway between Earth and Mars. Yet they always prefer to fight at point blank range, lol.

[@chrissonofpear1384]

That's true enough, @Wilhuff Tarkin , but likely they could only hit very LARGE targets at that range, and slow moving or hardly manoeuvring ones, like planets or asteroids. In the Clone Wars cartoon show, meanwhile, we never really see them engage beyond about 100 km away. And in Revenge of the Sith, they engaged in near point blank broadsides, whilst trying to locate and disable the ship with Palpatine aboard.

[@andreasavbelj4227]

One question. Where are the bedrooms for the clones?

[@pankosticka9561]

How can this land on the surface of planet and deploy troops when it dont have any landibg gear etc. Can you please answer this question?

[@Pedro8k]

Amazing videos have you done the X wing or Tie fighter

[@Halfscreen]

Not yet...it's in the pipeline

[@wookiecookies9929]

Bet you could do a tour on a Separatists flagship that rivals the Venator, the Providence.

[@admiralpeak]

Great video, but some of the reference videos were of an Acclamator class destroyer

[@midgerm]

how many meant bags did it generally carry?

[@chanelname1185]

Can you guys make one of the eclipse 2 star destroyer?

[@Morpheus-pt3wq]

All SW ships feature bridges in vulnerable positions (it´s sad, how crazy their placement is), with ST human ships closely following. The bridge, along with engineering section, should be the two most protected areas of the ship. But let´s put the bridge on top, so everyone can see it, target it and - if needed - destroy it.

[@kevinschmidt8101]

In the empire this was actually intended. They wanted to show the enemy where the bridge is and where captain and admiral are positioned. Basically telling the enemy: "we are here and we don't fear you!"

[@chrisyanover1777]

I was hoping to see what the average living quarters looked like for the average officer. Did it look more like a hotel room or a 1 bedroom apartment? Do I get my own bathroom with shower and kitchen? Do I have to share a room with someone? This would be important to me to decide if I was going to enlist in the Galactic Navy or work in Cargo or passenger ship! I need to have all the comforts and luxuries in space as I would on Coruscant!

[@Halfscreen]

Unfortunately, SW don't mentioned much about crew quarters or living conditions. These information aren't really mentioned.

[@kevinyoung6082]

Well what a force too come up against,I wouldn’t like too take it on with all the cannons & everything else it has it carried a lot of other ships including the Jedi ships & tanks & whatever you need in a battle.

[@OutsiderVisions]

Very nice videos and very informative. 😃👍One question, can you tell me where the crew quarters are? Below the hangar section In the belly of the ship or in the tower under the two bridges?

[@Halfscreen]

Its near the local shield generator (near the portside), I should have add it in when I create the 3D rendering.

[@OutsiderVisions]

@@Halfscreen ah okay, all right. Thanks a lot for the answer. ☺️👌 Is research for my fan fiction. Thanks again 🙂🙏

[@Halfscreen]

@@OutsiderVisions No problem

[@rebeccaduncan5366]

with the same ways of the VENATOR class ship is like the 1 star DESTOYER as it be helping out too,

[@boogiestreet594]

You'd think there'd be a walkway or 2 connectin the 2 towers lol are these models available to download?

[@alejoaranda5850]

¿Podrías hablar sobre los cruceros estelares de la república clase acclamator, me encantan pero no se cómo son?

[@Halfscreen]

Déjame pensar en ello. Probablemente más tarde.

[@alejoaranda5850]

@@Halfscreen esperare, gracias😊❤

[@mateigabrielzaharia4842]

The venator may be smaller, but his highlight is the fact rhat can trnasport TONS OF SHIPS

[@getrekskrub]

Hey do you make your own 3D models? If so where do you get your source? And if not can you cite your source for that?

[@Halfscreen]

You can find some of the 3D model on cgtrader or turbosquid.

[@blenderzone5446]

amazing video!

[@Halfscreen]

Thanks for the visit

[@blenderzone5446]

my pleasure!

[@Castiel_Pr]

You won a new sub. 👍🏻

[@Halfscreen]

Welcome aboard!

[@natus1]

Can you do all the galactic empire ships please

[@GalCon99]

Is it just me or are those vehicles inside the hangar bay WAY too small compared to the 500m width of the ship? 3D model looks sick other than that little detail

[@jaredsedoris6736]

Request: Inside the Providence-class carrier/destroyer, aka the Separatist Dreadnaught.

[@oskarhansson879]

This video is not ackurate and misleading in many parts of the video but visuals are amazing

[@lothean2099]

How about doing the republic assault ship.

[@alessandromalinverno7097]

Wow, what application did u use to make these models? They r insanely good

[@Halfscreen]

3ds max

[@Pouk3D]

Range of 10 light minutes is a 'lot'. Static target, sure. But a moving target is by definition seen where it was full ten minutes ago.
