  • There are quite a few dropships in the Star Wars galaxy, but very few ships can claim to be as dominant as the Mandalorian Kom'rk Class Starfighter/Transport. We take a look at why the Kom'rk Class is in a league of its own.

      Well if we go by legends
      The sith empire based their ships on Mandalorian ships
      And then the republic based theirs on the old sith ships
      Then the empire did the same
      So technically we have always been seeing Mandalorian ships in a way

      The Firespray backstory hasn’t been made canon (that I know of) so we don’t know what is going to follow it from legends, but in some legends the Fett Firespray Slave 1 may have been _the_ prototype. If memory serves it was supposed to be a patrol/gunship for planetary defense and system/sector law enforcement.

    The Imperial Navy's Sentinel-Class assault ship should have a honourable mention here.

  • @Joey-gb2qx
    @Joey-gb2qx Před rokem +32

    You missed an interesting detail of the Kom’rk: it comes in three different sizes. The Clone Wars version is the 60m length you mentioned, but the Rebels version is canonically around 50m and the Mandalorian version appears to be no bigger than about 30-35m. You can really tell in the scene with the Mandalorian fleet at the end of S3E6. There are a couple of 60m Gozantis surrounded by a bunch of Gauntlets, and they definitely aren’t as tall as the Gozantis are long. Or compare it to the N1, it isn’t more than 2-2.5 times as long as that ship.

  • @zomfragger

    Of course there was also the massive AT-AT landing barges, and the HAV-R Floating fortresses... but those are in another category altogether.

    I gotta say I fell in love with the Tie Reaper as soon as I seen it. It's only downfall is its under gunned. But being a Tie variant I feel like there's alot of modularity that they could easily add quality additions and make it a juggernaut. Shields are good, class 1 hyper drive and enough floor space to haul on too. I wished Mando got one of these instead of the N-1 (obviously they're later in the time line). Still could live on it and bounty hunt and haul. Peli could have sourced and upgraded it along with other Tie parts.

    I personally love this ship and would love to see one modified into a bounty hunter's ship. For me, part of that means taking out the trooper drop and sealing the aft so it doesn't open which means it would no longer be a troop transport but bounty hunters don't normally work in teams anyways so all good there.

    The gauntlet might be my favorite star wars ship of all time. its very close to the tie interceptor

    Imagine a destroyer version of the Komm'rk; 800 meter long, armed with beam lasers and the same rotating wing structure.

    The U wing was designed for jet pack assault drops, as it cam open up the back & the sides as well during flight. The rebels simply lacked jet pack commandos to use it this way.

    Airborne soldiers do not fear death in battle, because they’re just happy they didn’t die in the air.

  • @brandonprefontaine124

    the gauntlet is pretty sick but im always leaning towards the LAAT. it can be modified for carying troops, tanks, has a ton of fire power and with some modification you can install a hyperdrive. its the bread and butter of star wars vehichles great video alan

    Gauntlet...hands down....Clone transport requires a large crew to bring to battle where as the Gauntlet can get away with 2 or 3 and be deadly

    I'm hoping Dinn will get one from Bo-katan, It'll probably suit him better than the N-1 he currently has.

      Knowing how the show is going he will likely just give her the N1

    • @jt5765
      @jt5765 Před rokem

      No he needs a ship big enough to have a hangar for the N1. Maybe a small transport with a hangar modification. I'd like to see him with his own crew of friends he's met along the way.
      Mando, Grogu, Pelli, Carson, Cara, Cobb, IG-11, Mayfeld & maybe Omega too would be 👌

    I'd suggest that the Mandalorians' GDP isn't just mostly spent on military defense, it's mostly generated by military production (both hardware and personnel).

  • @damongraham1398
    @damongraham1398 Před rokem

    I am technically a U-Wing fan. But only after some modifications. lengthening the main body pod by 10 meters. Adding an engineer as the 5th crew member. Then finally added a dorsal twin laser turret. That is my idea for a U-73A Nomad U-wing that would be built in the Mandalorian era.

    My favorite transport in SW is the LAAT Gunship. If it just had shields it be 100% the best transport. In .my opinion.

  • @krisgonynor689

    The simplest solution to protecting troops being deployed from a drop ship is to have top mounted wings, with folding wingtips. When landing, or doing a low hover, the troops exit from both sides of the landing craft. The overhead wings protect them from being attacked from above, while the wing tips fold down and provide direct cover from the sides. The troops can then move forward or backwards - or in both directions - to spread out and fight the enemy. I'd add a couple of those small drop down anti-personal lasers like the Millennium Falcon had, one front mounted, one rearwards, to provide low level defensive fire to protect your troops.
    A simple and easy design, giving you four different deployment options when landing your troops. The folding wingtips are a bonus, as the ship can fold them up prior to landing on a carrier or transport ship, leaving room for more of them.

      I'm familiar with a ship that almost perfectly matches this description, the Esperia Prowler, a human copy of a Tevarin Landing ship in the Star Citizen game setting. It has high mounted wings while in landing config a portion of the wingtip forms a wall between the exit doors, which line the side of the ship, and opposing forces.
