I was going to say similarly, with it looking more like a luxury yacht than a fighter craft, its clear to me that it was never intended for combat roles. From a tactical standpoint, however, the fact its hard to track (I won't say impossible, because in reality radar would pick up that sail pretty easily) because of its lack of an engine would make it an excellent espionage tool, provided you kit it out with some high quality, long range sensors.

How can you have a Worst ship list without including the Resistance Bomber from TLJ. It's absolutely the stupidest concept and design in the SW universe.

[@ufukcangencoglu2279]

That bomber is shit but the Transport is WORSE. The Bomber at least can do heavy damage.

[@Guardias]

Yeah....to itself

[@antonanderson1965]

The problem with the bomber is that it is incredibly slow, has relatively weak armor (virtually a glass cannon), is WAY too big of a target for a bomber, etc. It basically is a sitting duck with a huge attack profile filled to the brim with explosives. Basically a manned flying bomb. If you were using it as a light frigate, it would still be bad, as it has little in terms of ordinance aside from bombs and has incredibly weak armor. As a bomber, it is even worse, as it is too big of a target, is incredibly slow, has about as much maneuverability as a rock, and because of its bomber status, it would probably be singled out in combat because of the "threat" it poses to capital ships. There is a reason why the Resistance lost every single one of their bombers in one single battle: because it SUCKS! There is just no saving this ship. The B-wing was also a large ship that served as a bomber, but at least it was fast and maneuverable, and had guns that could actually pack a punch. The Resistance bomber tried to emulate the B-wing and failed. It is certainly one of the worst ships to ever grace the Star Wars universe. I daresay it even rivals the TIE-Wing ugly in terms of how bad it is. It fails in every category, including the role it was designed for. At least the Resistance transport still does what it was designed for. If the Resistance wanted a bomber, then they should have stuck with the B-wing. Yeah, by that time it would be pretty old, but it would still be a heck of a lot better than this waste of money and resources.

[@maukka1545]

Yea the Last Jedi was fucking retarded in every way

[@knifedance2402]

I think the resistance bomber is completely misinterpreted. I don’t think it was meant for space combat at all. Hence, the low speed and the odd delivery system for munitions. It might’ve been originally intended for planetary bombardment, either in-atmosphere or orbit. If that’s the case, it might be perfectly effective.

[@terryforsdyke306]

how is the K-Wing on the list while the "Resistance Bomber" is not, if the resistance had a half dozen K-Wings they would have taken down the dreadnaught without losses. The bomber which literaly had to get on top of the target to drop bombs, was absolutely the worst design I have seen in Star Wars. The K-Wing is extremely well armed, it was literaly designed to kill capital ships and get its crew back alive, and it did its designed role rather effectively in the (extended universe) Black Fleet Crisis novels.

[@Stormcastlecomics]

Most likely those bombers are intended to be use in an atmosphere for best optimum use and not for attacking the way there were used.

[@Stormcastlecomics]

@@grandadmiralthrawn5120 They make me think of WW2 bombers and in space they were deployed wrongly

[@grandadmiralthrawn5120]

@@Stormcastlecomics That is what they make me think of as well, but their non-aerodynamic base would cause them to move even slower if they could even fly at all. If they had more engines they would be a bit better, but even then they would be rather horrible ships. And If they were for atmospheric use then why did the resistance not have another type of bomber to do the attack, or have the Resistance bombers at all, even the Rebel Alliance mainly had space battle, so why would the Resistance have the bombers at all, much less for space use.

[@FlaminFaux]

@@grandadmiralthrawn5120 It's possible that, since their payload was enough for basically a single one of them to destroy a capital ship, that they were meant to be launched in space and drop their payload from the upper atmosphere. With a payload like that, a fleet's worth of them could devastate ground fortifications. If there's an Extended Universe use of them showing otherwise, I apologize for my ignorance on the matter.

[@grandadmiralthrawn5120]

He strengthened diplomatic relations with Poggle the Lesser by buying the sail and ship, thereby expressing his interest in Geonosian history and tech.

[@ShneekeyTheLost]

Tie Fighters were analogous to the Japanese Zero: Cheap to produce en masse, and surprisingly not bad. In fact, just like in the beginning year of WW II in which the Zero was massively out-performing the F4F Wildcat, the Tie Fighters did a pretty decent job as scout and subspace interceptor. Unfortunately, they simply are not capable of going toe to toe with something like an X-Wing or B-Wing or Y-Wing or especially the A-Wing... much like how the F6F Hellcat turned the tables on the Zero. Of course, for the price of a single X-Wing, you could make a couple dozen Tie Fighters, so you could still argue economics of scale. Shoot down an X-Wing for every six Tie Fighters shot down, and you're still trading a 2:1 economic advantage. And the Empire had massively more resources than the resource-starved Rebels. The Tie Experimental was designed for a completely different purpose, and there's kind of a logic behind it. Think about it from their perspective: What sort of ship would give a fleet of Star Destroyers fits? Answer: Something as maneuverable and hard to hit as a Tie Fighter but packing a Turbolaser. One cheap enough to be built in bulk. Think about the idea of hundreds of turbolasers being focused on a single target in a strafing run. That was the idea behind it. Granted, it didn't work because other people like to build things other than Star Destroyers, but that was at least the theory behind its inception, and assuming it was properly escorted by Tie Advanced, it could probably fill that role quite well. The Solar Sailor and the Cloud Car are not combat vehicles, they are strictly civilian in nature. Why are you even including these vessels? The Solar Sailor is an economic and stealthy in-system transport to get you to where you need to be to hit hyperdrive. It's like trying to claim that a Ford Mustang is lousy in a combat scenario... OF COURSE IT IS! The K-Wing is capable of taking out a Star Destroyer by itself if it got into optimal range. No other ship was really able to say that. I have no idea why it is even on this list. The transport ship is cobbled together out of scrap parts, by a group of people who had no access to the resources necessary to build a better ship. It's a testament to how on the ropes the Rebels are at this point in the timeline. In short, it's supposed to be a crappy ship, because it is all the rebels could afford. And that stealth field would have gone a LONG way to counteracting its deficiencies if PLOT hadn't come along and made it useless.

[@adorablecreature79]

Actually, since the Tie Fighter is fairly fast and can maneuver on a dime, it's better suited to attack a B-Wing or Y-Wing. Both are slow and fly like slugs.

[@Lord_Aussem]

The tie experimental M1 "Bizzaro" was also supposed to be remotely controlled. There is no pilot putting his life on the line, and they were cheap to make. So the idea would be to send massive waves of the things at capital ships and who cares if they get destroyed? Send in the next wave of drones! Also, there were a whole line of different types of remote experimental tie fighters that all fit different roles, including a kamikaze tie fighter! So the M1 wouldn't operate on it's own, it would be accompanied by other types that could cover it's weaknesses. Still looks weird AF tho lol

The K wing is by far one of the most valuable starships in the New Republic's arsenal, simply because of its role and the Imperial space warfare doctrine. The Imperial Fleet put a very heavy emphasis on capital ships, so much so that the ships often had too little anti-starfighter weapons. A wing of heavy bombers like the K-wing could utterly devastate an Imperial fleet within minutes if allowed to operate unmolested. Really the only criticism of the ship is that it's highly specialized, which means there are some potential logistics issues in maintaining a ship when considering the New Republic's situation.

I find this a tad ironic coming from the man who designed the TIE Defender as a keystone to his overall strategy. (Then again, I suppose you’re not really arguing against the value of quality starfighters, but rather how a good enough commander will make do with his resources)

I'd say the worst First Order star fighter would be the standard issue Tie/fo Fighter. It proves they clearly learned nothing from the empire. Instead of mass producing the Tie Interceptor or even the Tie Defender, they just decided to repaint the most disposable ship a different color. They even have a Tie Fighter (sf) with 2 seats, a shield, and a hyper drive, yet for some reason, it hasn't completely replaced the standard one.

[@Julian-pw5mv]

Alex Lasson they did learn tho since the new ties are now shielded

I think they should've had real writers instead of Kennedy in The Last Jedi. They also should've had decent choreographers and a halfway coherent plot and character arc instead of a "Rebellion but Worse" and a MaREY sue. Hell with it, instead of doing episode 9 they should just scrap the whole Disney canon except for Clone Wars and maybe Rebels, fire literally every writer, choreographer and actor involved, and just redo the entire post Yavin saga from scratch. Listen to Hamill and the fan base, incorporate the best stories from Legends and introduce new, dynamic characters that aren't defined by their gender race or species. Maybe do a few movies about the Jedi Praxeum on Yavin, for starters.

That and they suffered from a drastic lack of sound leadership, which of course was your point all along.

[@tsm688]

lack of resources If they'd built even just ONE less stupid star destroyer, they could have built and crewed hundreds or thousands of frigates.

[@OceanHedgehog]

To be fair to the Confederacy, the Solar Sailer was Dooku's personal ship; it wasn't mass produced, and it wasn't intended for war. It was meant to take him places secretly, like how he (as the Head of State of the enemy) was able to slip onto Coruscant at the end of AOTC to meet with Palpatine.

CWDTrixie The reason the Resistance bombers were used was because of there massive amount of firepower, just one destroyed a resistance dreadnaught, Poe' s attack was critized as being wasteful, so of course the reistance bombers suffered such huge casualties, they didn't take evasive maneuvers, and their escorts didn't protect them from TIE fighters that well

How these got destroyed and what it took. Death Star I: Rebels got lost ucky that Galen Erso made the flaw. Executor SSD: Rebels took down deflector shields and luckily the empire had over exposed bridges. Death Star II: Luckily the Rebels got there while DS2 was still in construction. Starkiller base: Rey and friends somehow didn’t die while setting the charges against dozens of stormtroopers and Poe luckily found a opening just big enough for a x-wing to go through with its s foils down and in and sideways. FO Dreadnaught(Last Jedi): Luckily the turrets and whatnot on the hull are nearly blind and can’t take out one fighter and luckily there’s one spot the for some reason is super weak and can be destroyed by one bomber. Supremacy: Actual ingenuity. Though an unnecessary sacrifice. These are all my interpretations please don’t hate me for stating these.

Then I combined that with an A-10 Thunderbolt Warthog, but instead of the Halo ship thing's missile pylons angling up, they angled down from the A-10 Thunderbolt's fuselage.
