Why the Imperial Navy HATED this class of Starship

- The corvette class starship was the perfect fit for the needs of the Alliance to Restore the Republic. It was well armed and armored for its size and caused a lot of problems for the Imperial Navy.

Corvettes are the unsung heroes of the rebellion fleet. Able to deal with swarms of tie fighters and able to flee from larger imperial sized ships for hit and run attacks. Perfect sized ships for the rebels.
Able to flee most of the time. Didn't really help Leia
Hera Syndulla: "We're gonna fly straight through the blockade!"
Imperial Navy: *shoots down every Rebel Alliance ship coming straight at them*
Hera Syndulla: *surprised Pikachu face*
The advantage that was easily countered in "legends" by Carracks. They would hunt CR90's without remorse or too much a problem. In new "Rebels" version of Star Wars they don't apparently exist so, CR90 can work safety.
Why do they hate it?
BECAUSE HONEY BADGER DON'T CARE!
*Badger Badger Badger Badger intensifies.*
MUSHROOM MUSHROOM!!
if you can't outgun the empire you may as well outrun them.
add some decent turbolasers you get a corvette.
Chinese mother, no greater enemy of childhood happiness than that. /s
My roommate is Asian and his parents came over unannounced, they were nice to me but you could see my roommate slowly being drained of life energy, bro went to bed immediately after they left
What about Korean mothers? I heard they are just as bad.
@@LeafBoye You should have hugged him, and wispered in his ear, the worst is past us.
2:11 When that hammerhead hit the star destroyer and pushed it into the other you could hear people in the audience in the theater shouting “Knights of the Old Republic!”
Corellia would have been a better death star target. Mon calamari as well.
Alderan was a statement, and wasn't Corellia also important to the Empire?
Yeah, due to its spice mines @@Cryo-15
Tarkin stupid
@@virmirfan ... are you thinking of Kessel?
Palps wouldn't destroy a manufacturing base for fleet expansion. When the Vong came calling, he didn't want to handicap himself and deny himself fighter and capital ship production.
Tbf though the classifications of ships in Star Wars do a poor job of matching up with their historical counterparts.
The gozanti for example is more like an age of sail sloop.
The nebulon B frigate is more like a WWI/II cruisers.
Meanwhile the corvettes seem fairly accurate to their age of sail or WWII counterparts, but could also be classed as torpedo(missile) boat destroyers (a class I believe should be viewed very differently from the destroyers they eventually evolved into.)
A corvette can mount more than enough firepower to engsge most pirate and smuggling groups so it's ideal for any systems defense force. Sure, you can use frigates and cruisers too, but a local force must be extremely codt effective as it depends on tax income by the local government.

A man of taste I see.

0:33 the corvette-class light frigate?
Ah yes, the Expanse
Except they weren't called "corvette-class," but instead, "Thranta-class" and "Hammerhead-class" respectively.
@@doomsdaySephiroth 😂😂😂
@@appo9357 That's literally the ship classes. I'm not making it up.
@@doomsdaySephiroth you clearly missed the joke. Ask Micah-y3n to explain.
Corvette class ships fitted with droids using the hyperspace ramming manuever (since thats now a dumbass thing), could "duke it out" with an ISD.
Makes you wonder if the rebels had any Terminus-class destroyers since Sith Imperial warships were built different when compared to Galactic Imperial warships, meaning that the warships of the Old Republic era like the Terminus-class destroyer could take a greater beating than an ISD.
How is this channel so good? 👍
The reason they hated it so much was because it got away from Vader in Rogue One… he would’ve grabbed that thing and pulled it in!
In early 19th century The US Navy had most powerful frigates, they had large cannons instead of the European navy frigates
"Cash-strapped, but interested in violence."
Wow, you basically called me out by name 😂
You, sir... I hated you when you were shilling the acolyte...
You just might earned that respect i used to have for you, when you shown these two dream cars... Vintage are the best.
Corvettes are my favorite class, perfect for civilian and military use and even though they don’t have the shields or armor to duke it out with a ISD they can carry enough Concussion missiles and proton torpedoes to gut a ISD or Cruiser.
Why don't the ships have foreard facing thrusters? Wouln't it make sense if you have the longer range to use this range?
The empire hated cr90 because it blow up high ranking imps and allowed rebels to escape
I wanted a Corvette but wound up with a beat up old truck instead. Life is tough in the outer regions.
little naval tangent: corvettes roles did change over the course of the centurys, the started out as coastal defence but their role changed several times (like any other ship class rly)
I use to not like these ships till I did my research and saw how each rebel leader modified and used their ships for their sector. Now I fully respect them 😊
"Soft target like a Burger King"? 😆
Blockade Runners, baby.
I assume cause it ran all there blockades
10:28 we're hating on BK today?
Something that just came to mind, why do smaller ships move faster at sub light speeds in starwars? Larger vessels have larger/more numerous engines and the weight of the ships doesn't matter in the vacuum of space, unless you are close enough to a celestial body that you have to actively fight it's gravitational pull, which I understand is supposed to be resisted by forces other than from the engines in starwars. Maneuverability may make som sense still, meaning speed of turning, but why would the larger ships be slower?
Mass matters even in space. Acceleration is force divided by mass. A large mass means it takes a whole lot more force from the engines for the same level of acceleration. Meanwhile a TIE fighter which is two powerful ion engines with a small cockpit strapped between them and a couple wings is going have crazy acceleration.
Good follow up video... 🙂
Cool
I blame plot
god i hate that scene of the hammerhead.
it just makes no sense whatsoever.
it doesn't have the trust to push an SD and it certainly can't survive such an impact.
It was designed for such things,and did have enough thrust,since the ISD was ionised and there's no resistance in space,it would boil down to how fast the ISD would become before impacting the other,but since the mass of the two colliding would compensate for whatever little speed was gained.
Yes it does. The Hammerhead is 5000 year old battle tested millitary design with a hardened hull and overpowered engines specifically designed to smash through or push unshielded ships. That ISD was completely unpowered, the Hammerhead did exactly what it was designed to do. Old Republic Hammerheads consistently destroyed the Sith Destroyers that the ISD is based on.
@jiffypoo5029 Yep. The Hammerhead-class battle cruiser was just that well built, so its design was never changed. That old saying "if it ain't broke don't fix it."
1st
Congrats
