Canon top speed from the ICS2 for the gunship is 620 KPH.
And this overrides anything seen onscreen in the animated series? I'm thinking of the scene where they enter orbit and start attacking the city rather quickly. But it's been awhile since I've watched it and I haven't tried to measure if that looks like 620 kph.
By virtue of it being a top speed, it is atmospheric, and does not apply in this case.

Because he wanted to get his ass out of there, probably didn't see the importance of taking more time to kill a single Jedi Master, and was disillusioned as to how powerful Yoda was, thus was not confident he could defeat him.

I just chalk it up as one of the series' Samurai Jack-isms, personally.

Why, why did it have to be that stupid fuck to make it... :roll:
