To be fair, things like phones and games aren't being released every year in order to incorporate the newest features and designs, it's just to make you buy it again on account of designed obsolescence. They don't want any of their features or designs to last more than a year, or they would make them that way.
That’s half true. Anyone buying a new iPhone every year or every call of duty game is getting duped. But the cumulative updates over say 5 years are far from trivial. I think this video just highlights some of the ridiculousness of how the Star Wars EU developed. There are a handful of lines in the original trilogy and prequels that force writers to set their stories thousands of years earlier, but they still want to use the same elements of lightsabers, blasters, space battles and droids. So we end up with slightly ludicrous lore that says technology has basically stagnated for tens of thousands of years. A galaxy full of advanced interstellar civilisations and virtually no scientific advancements happening.
@@chrisfranklin7547 I see your point, but at the same time, if it ain't broke, don't fix it. There's no reason why people in Star Wars need to develop highly-advanced starships if upgrading the hyperdrive and weapons systems makes a significant enough difference. And while it may make more sense for starships in Star Wars to be more advanced over time (which they are, as modern SW ships are way bigger and have way more weapons and advancements in sublight and hyperdrive tech), if you make something that might be scientifically or realistically accurate, then it would stop being Star Wars. Don't go to Star Wars looking for realism.
Makes me think of the Star Trek equivalents. Klingon Bird of Prey and the Excelsiors are around 100 years old, and they may be the oldest classes in service. Spacedock just posted the answer is the Oberth at 131 years.
Alot of these Service Records... Talk about your upgrades and maintenance.. They minds would all be blown by seeing just how insanely fast we upgrade our entertainment and communication devices
It’s crazy that, in cannon some ships were used for thousands of years, yet the Venator-class Star Destroyers were only used for about, what 20 years or so.
I'm in the rabbit hole wondering if the lylat system exists in the unknown regions, who would win 🦊 and company vs rogue squad Are star destroyers made from those panels andross fired out.... Hmmmm
Honestly we did a video when the movie came out saying that he might have… but if you take a close look at the scene when the isd hits the gate you can see the hammerhead snap in half… so idk
SWS universe ships varied greatly in sizes and shapes and not hung up in one or two particular characteristic main themes like in ST universe i.e. Warp Narcells and Saucer shapes. Am not putting down either universe for those apparent differences because ST Fed ships are sleek and gorgeous, but I do like the looks of the galactic junkyard assembled and built varied ships in SWS. It’s like classic cars enthusiasts having appreciation for engines and parts in an auto junkyard and hopes to rebuild that classic muscle car.
Huh... Always wondered why, in the games, no matter which faction you were with, and no matter which faction you were facing, a dreadnaught was always a capital ship both on your side and the opposition's. Thanks.
Would like to see a video of this for starships in Sci-fi in general.

You could pretty much fill it up with Stargate ships. The 5000+ year old Goa'uld designs are considered _new_. The Asgard Belsinker is some ten millennia old, the Wraith ships are also around that age as well, the Atlantis-class cityship and the Aurora-class Ancient battleship classes are a couple of millions of years old (the Ori designs might be around that age as well, though it's questionable whether they maintained a standing fleet), then of course there's Destiny which was launched in the Eocene epoch not long after the non-avian dinosaurs died out.
What if you did a series looking at what sorts of government/economic systems impact was like on various parts of the galaxy and cross reference those with real world equivalents as a way of figuring out the ideal solutions in the SW universe and thus enabling us to recommend solutions to major problems in ours (economic inequality, political corruption, etc).
Always thought the dreadnought was the most practical ship in starwars lore. Good offense and defense and could carry a full squadron of fighters in her hanger bay.
So What dude? I don't mean to disrespect but I don't like such comparisons. Each saga should be categorized in their own terms. EACH one is good as they are. Combining or comparing them to each other is childish in my opinion. Nah Destiny from Stargate series is way older; that baby was dripping her toes to stars while dinosaurs were walking on earth. :D - my inner child-self.
For the real world equivalent, look no farther than the American B-52. Still flying combat missions 69 years after the first ones rolled off the line and projected to be flying for many more years. Of course, today's B-52 is a very different beast from those first ones, having nearly every system upgraded and replaced over the years. I would assume it's the same for these vessels. If it still works (or can be made to work) for the mission, there's no reason not to keep using it...
Star ship designs that remained relevant for thousands of years? This is what sets Star Wars apart from other sci-fi franchises like Star Trek. In Star Trek technology is a huge part of the story. If you have a problem, just insert a lot of technology and techno-babble until it's fixed. (I'm exaggerating a lot, but seriously how many problems have been solved by "reversing the polarity" of whatever gizmo?) But in Star Wars, the technology just helps to establish the setting. The stories of this new mythology could be set anywhere, any time or place, and still tell basically the same story and speak to an audience. There's a reason why it's been called a "modern day mythology".
You are seeing the same with today's weapon systems. With upgrades and minor production changes the same basic designs can serve and remain competive for 100 years
Many clone wars era And most galactic empire ships/ star fighters Are heavly modeled after the true sith empires harrower class dreadnaught, the fury class corvette and the supremacy class interceptor

So Palpatine rescued an Anakin in the equivalent of a Customised Classic car? Cool.
Well, Fett got a Vette, so why can't Palpy Mcscrotumface have a Camaro or something
All he needed was orange crushed velvet upholstery, lowered hydraulic kit, and a kicking sound system
Well...by the sounds of it more of a restomod classic looks modern power and parts on the inside
Love the idea of Palpatine being a classic ships collector
He would definitely especially old sith ships

Don't embarrass me philmore.
I love Star Wars the old republic
I would take the Hammerhead cruiser, Aurek Starfighter, Theta class shuttle, and the Dreadnaught cruiser.
Would’ve thought the Y-wing would’ve at least made an honourable mention due to it being in 3 near back to back wars
Yeah in canon it goes on for 50 years at least but it didn’t make the cut. I believe the z95 headhunter was active even a bit longer
Well in reference to WW2 and the Swordfish torpedo bomber. In legends the Tie Bomber actually served in various roles for about 100 years.

I love all the starship episodes.
I feel like flying an Aurek in the Imperial period would be the equivalent of flying a WW2 era fighter from any nation.
There are a lot of privately owned warbirds out there
Many airworthy
Wonder how it would fare in battle with like and wing
Ironically, I'd consider it the Star Wars equivalent of a P-38 Lightning/P-51 Mustang
@@adamd5849 Exactly!!
The Aurek was actually a pretty decent fighter as its modernized engines and equipment made it on par with Anakin's Azure Angel Delta 7 fighter.
Small correction: If the Theta Class was in use since 1990 BBY it's been in use for almost 2000 years, not 1000 years.

Yeah that’s a pretty good call
I thought it was Arwing lol
I'm in the rabbit hole wondering if the lylat system exists in the unknown regions, who would win 🦊 and company vs rogue squad
Are star destroyers made from those panels andross fired out.... Hmmmm
You forgot the Preatorian class frigate/ Type 6 freighter.
I was always curious. Did those dudes in the Hammerhead die? I mean they were pretty well wedged into that ISD lol
Honestly we did a video when the movie came out saying that he might have… but if you take a close look at the scene when the isd hits the gate you can see the hammerhead snap in half… so idk
@@GenerationTech Then I salute those crazy bastiches for that sacrifice.
Let us not forget that given enough time the Y wing will gain this designation as well. There aren't a lot of ships that can outgun one.

Politics + RUclips = dumpster fire
Why does the Aurek strike fighter remind me of the Ar-Wing?
Nobody can beat Red Dwarf :D 3 000 000 years old
Always thought the dreadnought was the most practical ship in starwars lore. Good offense and defense and could carry a full squadron of fighters in her hanger bay.
It was relatively under armed due to those annoying "Rusaan Suggestions"
I was hopping he would talk about the Bulwark Class Cruiser a ship even older than the Dreadnought Heavy Cruiser.
With the title of this video, my first though was the Y-wing
Pretty Cool. HEYY , if it works - GOOD ! Keep it !
The Aurek tactical Strikefighter looks very similiar to the V-Wing
Was the Hammerhead-class cruiser used as an inspiration for the New Republic Starhawk?
it's like how the Excelsior class was used by the Federation for like a hundred years.
They might look the same on the outside but they probably got some updates over the years.
Just what I needed u guys rock. Love the dolphins subplot. My girl loves those evil bastards but I won't forget there many crimes.
