    The Galactic Republic’s would’ve fallen to the numerous threats in the Galaxy, if it didn’t have the Hammerheads family. The Hammerheads were a tried test warship that didn’t need much to help end battles and win wars. The Hammerhead was by far the iconic warships that the Galactic Republic’s Navy could produce, and they deserve more respect than what the Galactic Republic’s during the Clone Wars ignored this tried tested design. Though considering that the Galactic Empire tried to eased several Republic era records these Hammerhead were used in the Rebel Alliance to restore the very Government that these ships saved countless times.

    Aren’t you confusing the Hammerhead **CRUISER** from the time of the Old Republic’s war with the Sith Empire with the **much smaller** Hammerhead *Corvette* from the much-later Galactic Civil War? The Corvette-though obviously still in the extremely long-lived design lineage of the Old Republic Hammerhead Cruiser--was supposed to screen capital ships from fighters and act in an auxiliary role in support of the Rebel Calamari Home-One Cruisers’ capital-ship battles against Imperial Star Destroyers…
    So not only are the Hammerhead Cruiser and Hammerhead Corvette from quite disparate historical periods, but they were also of *very* different sizes, and performed vastly different functions within fleet actions.

      That's because 'this' ship didn't serve for Millenia. This video showcases four entirely different ships. What he did was take all the hammerhead-style ships and lump them together as if it was one single ship. They aren't the same ship serving for ages, they're entirely brand new designs sharing similarities (the hammerhead front) same way a venator and an imperator star destroyer share similar design language despite being two entirely different ships.
      The republic introduced new, more advanced ships every several decades or so, same way Palpatine did.
