Hääää... What ?!?

Nice! What sort of scale are we talking? I get about 4-5km out of the design.

4,5km... Very good estimated

That vessel should be a warship, not a mere supply/repair ship!!!

It's just a Concept...

We can make with it what we want...

And maybe...

Whaddaya reckon those four things are sticking out of the side near the front? Repair arms? They would be good TIE racks to, ya know...

OMG \/\/!C/<3|)! I like it. I'm thinking put a couple really big TL turrets on the sides for anti-ship defense. BTW it WOULD be a warship if you unleash it in the Trek verse!

I just got another idea... take the docking-bay bits off, put bigger engine pods on the back, maybe wedgie out the sides of the hull a bit more like an ISD, rip out everything inside the obelisk portion, replace with Mini-Superlaser...

Get my drift?

Nice vessel. Though I think the Empire would go for something shorter and fatter. There probably should be more claws for holding containers. Good compliment for the mobile deep docks. Though WEG had some heavy freighter that used force fields to carry containers through hyperspace.

I need a Repair/Resupply/Refuel vessel for use in a fic. I just found it.

It's a nice looking ship but at first glance the hull shape doesn't have enough internal volume to make a half-decent cargo carrier. Maybe a dedicated repair ship instead?

Very good. The design, although quite different from the ISD, manages to keep a ghost of the destroyer's image. This definately makes a good repairship concept.

Any armaments?

Am I the only one here that sees virtually no resemblance to the SSD, save its length and narrow bow (which many starships have)? I mean, what other aspect looks even remotely similar to an ISD or SSD? I can't see anything that even reminds me of an ISD or SSD, let alone look like one. It reminds me more of the Empire State Building than of any class of Star Destroyer.

Well, it has the daggerish profile (thin bow, spreads out near the stern), and it also has the upraised bridge.

It looks like a fossil SD.

Well I'd move that underhanging superstructure at the back to the top, so you had unrestricted access to that cradle. Maybe move the cradle forwards so you could fit in two (or shorten the whole thing as it's a bit to big for only one ISD-sized cradle). Are the prongs at the front for repairing smaller escort ships at the same time as the ISD?
