I like the Separatist ships. Every single of them, but especially the Providence, the Lucrehulk and the Subjugator.

Finally, somebody else appreciates efficient Seppy design.

My favorite ships are the Subjugator-class heavy cruiser, the lovely Hapan Battle Dragon, and the TIE Defender. Yorik-Et and the Interdictor receive honorable mentions.

It's a pity there's only one Subjugator detailed in canon, in addition to the Subjugator we know nothing about. In my headcanon, there was a third one, Deliverance, built by the Separatist remnant during the early Imperial period.

I know that in space aerodynamics are irrelevant, but I like them asthetically. YT-2000, anything built by the Naboo, you get the picture. EVE Online ships are way off base, Trekkie ships are meh at best, Firefly ships are pretty cool tho.

Aesthetics?!  Oh, boy.  Now there's a bunny trail.  But hell, let's go for it!  Personally I prefer symmetrical ships. 


One of my favorite looking ships is the X-70B Phantom from SWTOR.  It similar to the Nubian ships, but seems more "useful" to me, if that makes sense. 




Outside of Star Wars, I absolutely LOVE the Origin 300i that they're making for Star Citizen.



Other than that, there's the Deepwater-class freighter, Starwind-class freighter, and of course the Jade Shadow are on the list of best looking.

I give stealth points.  You may get one without ever knowing it! Muwahaha!

I prefer symmetry in ships, so as classic as the YT designs are, I never much cared for them. Same for the B-Wing, and the freighter Anakin ends up with during the Clone Wars.

Pre-OT: Padme's ship destroyed at the start of Ep II. Just a beautiful vessel.

OT: X-Wing, X-Wing, X-Wing. Well armed, manoeuvrable enough, tough as teak and plenty fast enough. The ideal snubfighter.

Post-OT: TIE Defender, blind spot and all. Six guns, speed, a tractor beam, shields, manoeuvrability... What's not to like (apart from that blind spot)?

James, your love of the Incom T-65 has earned you a lightside point. *directs you towards Ultra Wing and Nova Squadron thread*  Grin

I agree with this product and/or service and would like to subscribe to your newsletter.

In addition to the Constitution-Refit and the Sovereign class, I also love the bulldog-like boxy sleekness of the Defiant-class and the overall design of the Akira-class. The Miranda-class gets a nod as well.

Outside of Star Trek and Star Wars, I have to give props to the following ship classes:

Firefly-class (Firefly)
Original Battlestar Galactica (a far superior design to the remake)
Omega-class Destroyer (Babylon 5)
Earth Star Voyager (from the never-gonna-get-released-on-home-video-because-Disney-sucks-the-big-one miniseries) Image Link of a bootlegged copy
Gunstar (The Last Starfighter)
Daedalus-class Battlecruiser (Stargate)

Viper and Danube are awesome to be sure, and certainly no one can argue against the Defiant. That Marauder though.... flip it backwards and it's the same Marauder from Star Trek. LOL

The only real ship design that I love is the Defiant Class ship in the ST universe and I guess the Starfighters that Obi Wan uses in the prequel ...

Are there any Star Wars ships that resemble the Defiant class in looks or concept ... Concept being a warship that is small highly agile but very heavily armored and equipped
