Talk:Delta-7 Aethersprite-class light interceptor/Legends

Just wondering, can't find anything anywhere. Did the D-7 have any shields? Avid Soyak 03:14, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
 * The New Essential Guide to Vehicles and Vessels says the &Delta;-7 does have a shield system, and it automatically redistributes power to weaker sections. I'm not sure why that's not in this article. &mdash;Darth Culator   (talk)  03:48, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
 * I thought it didn't have a shield system, which it why it's not in there. Admiral J. Nebulax (talk) 20:46, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
 * The Eta-2 doesn't have shields. But the NEGVV explicitly states that the Delta-7 has shields, and I'm pretty sure the RPG stats have a shield rating for it. I think it would be less confusing if the Databank had separate pages for the Actis and the Aethersprite. &mdash;Darth Culator   (talk)  21:23, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Agreed. Admiral J. Nebulax (talk) 22:57, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
 * I believe it definitely has a shield. Slave 1's lasers explode a good distance behind OB1, and they seem to explode at roughly the same distance, up until he gets hit directly.--Commander Mike 01:05, 2 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, let's remember that they were in an asteroid field. The blasts most likely hit small asteroids flying around, and then Jango managed to hit Obi-Wan's fighter. Personally, I wouldn't use that as evidence for the claim that the Delta-7 had shields, although I too believe that the starfighter had shields. Admiral J.

In the novel for Attack of the Clones, Jango and Boba Fett are looking down at the fighter's landing pad, and Jango's quizzing Boba on it. There, it's mentioned that the R3-T is the usual droid attached to the craft because "its speed is so great that pilots tend to shoot their noses off", and that the droid helps with targeting. That a R4-P was attached told him the pilot was more interested in navigation than targeting. Should this be added anywhere to the entry, or is it considered "non-canon"?
 * That's interesting. That definitely should be added in. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 11:38, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

Rogue Squadron 3
The Slave 1 used rear launched Krupx Void 7 seismic charges.Master Halcyon
 * Did the game say that the seismic charges were a modification? There's no mention of them on the Delta-7 in the AOTC ICS or any other source, and we shouldn't list modifications in the main info box. Also, were they launched in the game, or dropped like bombs? JimRaynor55 00:02, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
 * It's probably a modification. I'm removing it. Admiral J. Nebulax (talk) 00:06, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Well in the movie we see them being "dropped" behind Slave 1 yet in RS3 we see them being launched like a missle. Call it a homage to the movie and consider it a modification Phillowe88 00:11, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
 * No, Slave I used those. Admiral J. Nebulax (talk) 00:12, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
 * It's been a while since i saw the movie but I don't recall the charges being forard-launched like a missle or bomb. Did Slave 1 have a forward launcher? Phillowe88 00:20, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
 * I suggest you watch Attack of the Clones again. You'll see. Plus, the Delta-7 is too small to carry those kinds of weapons. Admiral J. Nebulax (talk) 00:22, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Please don't restart old topics. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 20:18, 5 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I don't think the "modified" versions should be in the info box, unless the modified version is common. Any ship can have just about any kind of modification, and a couple modified ships don't represent the rest of the class. At most I think the article should have a couple sentences saying that some of these fighters were modified to carry seismic charges or bombs (as seen in the first episode of the Clone Wars cartoon). JimRaynor55 23:07, 5 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Good point. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 00:37, 6 August 2006 (UTC)

12,000 K/PH !
I'm wondering about the top speed of the Delta-7 being that high. In The New Essential Guide to Vehicles & Vessels it says that The [Sharp Spiral] has a top speed of 8,000 K/PH. Why would it say that it was one of the fastest Atmoshpic craft in the Jedi fleet. Any reasons why it would say this if any Delta-7 outclassed it by 4,000 K/PH? Master Halcyon
 * Many prequel trilogy vessels' speeds are faster compared to those of the original trilogy. And if a source says it, it's canon. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 23:48, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

Yes, I agree with that, but the Sharp Spiral is Sanasse Tinn's personal Cutlass-9 Class Patol Fighter.
 * And your point is? Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 15:25, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

Don't you think that that fast a ship would have so much drag it would tear itself apart? Master Halcyon
 * I don't argue with canon. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 23:01, 15 July 2006 (UTC)
 * The only reason prequel fighters are faster than OT fighters, is because LFL finally figured out basing stats solely on RPG material where SW fighters are presented as slower than most modern-day fighters, was a silly idea.
 * "have so much drag it would tear itself apart?"
 * Then they'd never get out into space as quick as they do. Either materials are better or they have low-effect shields to aid them. VT-16 18:09, 16 July 2006 (UTC)

I agree with them being faster than modern day fighters, but no other dhip comes close. They use repulsers to get into space, and even Podracer engines, which are bigger, and only reach a maximum of about 1000.
 * It is Star Wars, after all. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 19:34, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Yeah, but regardless of what's slower but should be faster, canon is canon. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 20:18, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

Fight Mode???
This is from Full of Surprises, it shows Obi-Wan's Jedi Starfighter in Fight mode ???!!!! Should it be added to the article? Themelle444 16:13, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Note that it was from Toys 'R' Us. They probably had no clue that the "fight mode" wasn't actually a feature of the Delta-7. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 20:24, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * It was, this image is from one page before the Fight Mode panel Themelle444 21:02, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Look at the ridiculous amount of guns on it, too. I doubt it's canon. &mdash; Aiddat (Holonet) (Contribs Log) [[Image:NewRepublic.png|20px]] 22:07, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * It's just because the toy is like that. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 22:09, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * so what we gonna say, canon or not, i doubt it to be honest...bloody toys Jedi Dude 22:24, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I say non-canon. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 22:27, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * thank god, so its not going in the article? or BTS maybe ?Jedi Dude 22:28, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Behind the scenes. I'm surprised it's not there already. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 22:29, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Actually the comic is produced by Dark Horse, and is fully canon...notice the mention of extra "four quad-pulse laser cannons" by Saesee Tiin in The New Essential Guide to Vehicles and Vessels...FOUR QUAD's...that equals 16 individual cannons...I'd say that accounts for all of the ones seen in that picture, although obviously they'd be of lesser power. &mdash;Jaymach Ral'Tir (talk) 16:51, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
 * What about this flaps on the wings of the fighter. Is that canon too? Themelle444 17:08, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
 * The comic may be produced by Dark Horse, but this was based off the Hasbro toy. Dark Horse didn't create that. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 19:40, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
 * But nevertheless, it's canon because of its inclusion in said comic. Note this comic is from the same line from which we get Most Precious Weapon, whose depiction of a young Dooku adorns his page as a canonical image - Kwenn 19:41, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Since when are toys canon? It's based off of a toy model. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 19:43, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Granted. But the comic in which it appears in that form is canon. Besides, we do in fact have canonical toys; Utapau Shadow Trooper, Gungan assault cannon to name two - Kwenn 19:44, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
 * But this form of the Delta-7 has to be impossible. And just because the comic shows it like that doesn't make it canon; Dark Horse simply based it off of the toy. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 19:48, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
 * How is it impossible? It's shown in the comic. Just because you don't believe it could happen doesn't suddenly revoke its canon status - Kwenn 19:49, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Exactly: Shown in the comic. That's the only place this has ever been shown. If Delta-7s had this feature, why wasn't this used by anyone in the Clone Wars? The toy model was out by then for the creators of the mirco-series to use. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 19:53, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Now I'm not saying that it can't be a simple modification to one Delta-7. I'm saying that this probably isn't a feature on every Delta-7. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 19:55, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
