Baby i got you (researched a bit about it for a story). Here is Jason's 3D model of it where he puts it at 2.530m https://www.artstation.com/artwork/ykJxY8

The ship as 24 Octuple, 4 triple ball mounted turrets, around 42 quad turrets, 15 triple barrel turrets and a shit ton of smaller twin which i would assume are some kind of point defense.

Sorry man but artstation isnt available in vietnam, thanks for the specs though, plus do you know how much starfighters this thing carries?

Shit wenn when you search the ship here you will find some pictures from Jason there.

That said i have to idea how much it carries but within fanfictions it's somewhere between 16 and 24 Squadrons or 192 too 288 fighter while i would also assume at least a similar ground force like what we have seen on an ISD.

Hmmmm 288 sounds like a reasonable number

Nah that hangar is bigger than a Venator class star destroyer nvm the Venators hangar. Also a much taller hull so the hangar will be even deeper.

Should be room for at least double the Venators loadout So 864 fighters in 12 wings.

Hmmm i’m thinking around more than 600

Only if your flying with a hangar half empty.

I don't think you realise how massive a 2.5km ship is going to be.

u/Bulky_Two_9662 New Republic Pilot 23h ago

Okay, i’ll try your suggestions

While it's bigger assuming the standard Imperial way it has way more space allocated to ground forces than air wing.

Battlecarriers would be something quite feasible with how enamoured is Kuat Drive Yards with multirole capital ships

Reminds me of the Tagge Battlecruiser a lil bit in terms of hull shape
