Talk:Capital ship/Legends

Aidje had it right in the original article. The SW universe definition for "capital ship" is not the same as the real life definition. In real life, "capital ship" is used only to refer to the largest, most important ships, such as battleships and aircraft carriers. The Essential Guide to Vehicles and Vessels defines a SW capital ship as any military starship with a length greater than 100 meters. A Corellian Gunship is capital ship in the SW universe, but a real life gunship isn't considered a capital ship. JimRaynor55 21:14, 10 May 2005 (UTC)
