What's the biggest ship that can land on...

Post by Lord Revan »

What's the biggest ship that can land on...

1. A Dreanaught-class heavy cruiser?

2. A CR-90 Class Corellian Corvette?

3. A Nebulon-B class frigate (EU version)?

Referring to the ships in RotS? Those are Venator class. The Vindicator is a different class, built decades later.

Do you mean landing in their hangar bay? Judging from what I remember, the Falcon would fit into a Nebulon B hangar and perhaps a Lambda shutltle as well. Not sure about the other two ship types.

A Corellian corvette doesn't have a hanger, so the answer would be nothing.

Not according to ROTS, which has Obi-Wan landing General Greivous' fighter in a hangar bay on Organa's Corvette.

Could very well be a modification. It doesn't match the ANH Corvette, after all, and the CR90 is stated to be easily modified, "modular" even. With some versions carrying a few (six,IIRC) fighters. *shudder* for some reason I come to think of the FarStar.

The Neb-B has an external docking port for the MF and other ships. Technically, a very large ship could dock with it. Internally? Nothing bigger than a Lambda, unless you scram all the fighters.

The dreadnaught has been said to not have any main hangar until the Empire (and the rebels) fixed them up with a small one-squadron hangar. It should have even less room than the Neb-B.

You know, technically a Victory can 'Land' on all of them :wink: *CrUnCh*

OK I'll refrase the question, what is the biggest ship that can land into the hangars of these ships and fit inside (so no ships that are bigger then ship in question)?
