I'll also go along with the X-wing and the Falcon (she's on of my favorite ships, but a HORRIBLE design FOR a ship I've got to admit)

I agree about the Falcon, Mark. Iconic... but the cockpit placement...

Eclipse class SSD. Looks cool.

Executor class SSD.

Acclamator class... semi- Star Destroyer.

E-Wing. (The later EU practically forgot the E-Wing)

For the E-Wing, it just didn't really serve much of a purpose IIRC. There was nothing that the E-Wing could do that the B-Wing couldn't do better.

The E-Wing was a good idea but just not practical.

I dont suppose the Death Star counts as a ship? If so I vote for DS 2.0.

I believe that counts as a space station.

It has engines, so I'd count it as a ship.

Uh, the E-Wing wasn't a B-Wing replacement. It was supposed to be an A-Wing and X-Wing replacement. As fast as the A-Wing (or faster) yet as heavily armed and shielded as the X-Wing. Pilots loved them.

A fast moving heavy fighter is still a heavy fighter. Fast maybe but also carried three cannon and sixteen PTs covered in heavy armor and shielding.

They took everything they could and beefed it up. Thats the same thing they did with the B-wing which was just as good and cheaper.

I'd like to nominate the Palleon II.

How was the B-Wing cheaper than the E-Wing? And the E-Wing is a space superiority fighter, while the B-Wing is a heavy fighter/bomber, the replacement for the Y-Wing.

The E-Wing was suppose to the the X-Wing's sucessor.

Frankly the E-Wing looked like a fan ship, and not a great one. A kitbashed X-Wing that wasn't exactly well thought out.

That on top of the high cost of Nav-Droids and overly complex flight systems.

And yet its a pilot favorite. And the New Republic made millions of them.

And yet, what's the standard NR fighter during the Vong War? The X-Wing. Upgraded to the various XJ models, but the best pilots in the galaxy fly X-Wings.
