      ironically... originally the Imperial destroyer was to be actually smaller than the rebel ship it was pursuing.. wich would match our classic definition of the term "destroyer" (a smaller , faster and well armed ship that trades mass and armour for speed while keeping a more than decent firepower to take on bigger ships).. there are arround the blueprints of the original star destroyer and you can see its much much smaller than the final.. George Lucas upscaled the destroyer (and probably downscalled the corvette some) because he wanted the audience to get clear in that opening shot the uneven war the rebellion was having against the Empire.. it shows in a single shot the desperate situation the alliance was and the might of the GE

    Interesting trivia note:
    The design for this ship originally was at a different slightly smaller scale - with only two turrets dorsal and ventral - with a "Bomber Nose" cockpit up front. If that sounds familiar - it should. This ship WAS going to be the Millennium Falcon!
    However - the way the landing gear pods (later removed) were laid out, plus the overall shape of the ship, made George Lucas realize that the design looked too much like the Eagle Transporter from Space 1999! So the famous forked disc/side slung cockpit version of the Millenium Falcon was designed late in production. And the former design of the Falcon was re-purposed as the Blockade Runner with added details, "grimblies" to indicate a larger ship scale and extra turrets and the hammerhead forward hull. Hey - why totally scrap the model? We're on a budget here! :D

When Lucas decided to change the model they made some changes to the existing model and used it in the opening scene. Remember there was no CGI back then.

      *Sigh*
      The entire Scene was terrible. The Entire Sequence was terrible. The ending of the Battle of Scariff counters the information we received in Episode IV.
      "It is a period of civil war. Rebel spaceships,
      striking from a hidden base, have won their first
      victory against the evil Galactic Empire.
      During the battle, Rebel spies managed to steal
      secret plans to the Empire's ultimate weapon, the
      Death Star, an armored space station with enough
      power to destroy an entire planet.
      Pursued by the Empire's sinister agents, Princess
      Leia races home aboard her starship, custodian of
      the stolen plans that can save her people and
      restore freedom to the galaxy..."
      The battle wasn't a victory. By my count, only 6 fighters, 3 blockade runners, and a ramship (which is never shown anywhere else) escape. Even more concerning, the Rebel fleet didn't try to Flee or Fight the Star Destroyer, they just sat there and got destroyed.
      Next, the Imperial's "intercepted transmissions" which lead them to Tantive IV. All we see is Fan Service as Darth Vader wrecks Admiral Raddus' ship. Just to see Tantive IV escape. Okay, why is Tantive IV there? It's a consular ship with diplomatic immunity. Why would the captain risk being identified by imperial forces at a secure imperial facility which is under attack?
      Just because a Captain says "we never received any transmissions" nor do those transmissions appear in the log/data banks... doesn't mean the ship never received them. It just means the Captain took measures to remove all traces of them from his ship. This is currently possible to do. So, it is what happened. This is why Darth Vader threw him away. He knew he lied.
      If Disney wants to rewrite Star Wars History, they should have just said "nothing is canon". Making movies which contradict the OT is very bad.

    One of the best features of the CR-90's were how modular and easily altered they were. From stripping out 1/3 of the engines and the entire weapons array to be turned into a diplomatic luxury ship, or swapping out everything between the cockpit and engine block and replacing it with hangar space, these little buggers could be refitted to do just about anything, without the use of a dedicated shipyard. Some were even turned into 'fire ships', replacing the crew with remote controls and packing them to the gills with enough explosive to crack a Star Destroyer in half.

    The Corellian Corvette is my favorite starship in the Star Wars universe. It reminds me a bit of the Eagle Transporters from Space:1999. The original design was meant to be the Millennium Falcon, but because of the name, and its very similar appearance to the Eagles from S:1999, the ship was altered a bit, (more engines, and turning the conical cockpit section into a hammerhead cockpit section) and repurposed as Princess Leia's Tantive IV (Tan-tiv-ee....as pronounced in the Star Wars Radio Drama in 1980). The original unaltered design was repurposed as a (now Legends) starship known as the Corellian Gunship.

All it needs is a few RCS thrusters and I could easily see a ship of this design in Elite Dangerous or something.

    I've seen art of a CR-90 modified as a carrier before and in an old Star wars rts from the 90's had a variant that removed the area for passengers and crew replacing it as a giant crane to deploy prefab buildings from orbit. A similar thing was done with a Lambda -class shuttle...

    “Can’t serve as a star fighter carrier”
    Ah, you’ve never heard of the legends of the Night Caller. I thought not. It’s not a story that Disney would tell you.
    The Night Caller was a CR90 that Wraith Squadron (then under the command of Wedge Antilles) commandeered from Warlord whatever-the-crap his name was. They later modified the ship to hold the ships four tie fighters externally, and the squadron complement of x wings, (11 at the time) in the forward launch bay.

    As an anti fighter Corvette it would be brilliant for the Empire to use and would cover their greatest weakness - _snub fighter raids._
    Imagine every ISD having a escort fleet of CR-90's in the anti Starfighter configuration, it wouldn't have cost the Empire much (since they wouldn't spring for Lancer frigates or DP-20's) and would have decimated the Rebel forces … until they worked out that they should only approach from behind. But in a furball CR-90'S and Ties could cover each other's six's.
    Coming Soon, the CR-91, with tailgunner.

    • @sparrowlt
      @sparrowlt 5 лет назад

      The empire used its larger TIE Fighter as anti-fighter screen..they even had Gozanti transports carrying 4 TIEs to escort smaller ships..
      When that proved ineffective they fielded a dedicated antifighter ship..the Lanzer class frigate (wich is canon BTW.. aparently the first order is still using them)

    I came across it while looking up the CR-90 (so I could make whimsical comments) but can't find any concrete stats on it. Guns, layout, speed (slightly slower than the Millennium Falcon apparently) and effectiveness.
    Was it better than the standard ISD, or ISD Mark 2?
    Was it Starfighter bait?
