Sphero app reveals name of new Resistance/Republic capital ship and Snoke's ship revealed

The Raddus is base on a Viscount class Star Defender!

 

Still can't get over the design, the creative imagination is amazing, can't wait to see what weapons arsenal this baby carries.

 

Supremacy for the Supreme Leader? Snoke's got a major ego.

 

Damn that Snoke's ship is big.

Aside been Dark side Master,Snoke is also an industrial wizzard!

Now even I see Disney maybe slightly overdid it,considering realistic FO industrial ,manpower,and logistic base(unless Snoke has another secret Empire financing his armada?)..but its nice ship.

 

Here's another angle of Snoke's ship:

 

It sounds like a flying manufacturing company.

 

Seeing the size of Snoke's ship, the scope of the FO and how greedy Snoke is, I'm thinking that Snoke and Canto Bight are connected in some way.

 

That's a thought I've had since I saw his gold robes and heard he is a collector and likes fine things.

 

OK, so what's your theory? Are Finn and Rose sent there just to get DJ to help the fight or are they sent there specifically because that's the only way to infiltrate Snoke's ship? Is DJ some master-hacker who can get them access to his ship or maybe his money?

 

I think since they need DJ to hack for them, Leia sends them to free him and get the codes, then they get disguises and board Snoke's ship to sabotage it.

 

Yep he does, I wonder who on the resistance side will quote ''it's here, the supremacy'', we might see the bridge quickly empty just like on starkiller base.

 

I can see it taking the whole movie to get to the final battle, like waiting for an eclipse.

 

Considering Starkiller base project and this hardware I hope Disney has prepared answer about Snoke's FO industrial capacity(for hardcore fans at least).Everything seen almost matches industrial capacity of Palpatine's Empire.

 

If Snoke is supposed to be greater than Palpatine, he'll likely surpass his Empire.

 

From the canon novel Bloodline released in May 2016:

"Subverting the New Republic

In the years leading up to the destruction of the Hosnian system, the First Order quietly bided its time preparing for its eventual war with the New Republic. To generate funding to refit and rearm the former Imperial fleet, the First Order used a militia group called the Amaxine warriors as proxies to fund the Nikto crime lord Rinnrivin Di's cartel. Seven years prior to the "Napkin Bombing" at the New Republic senatorial complex on Hosnian Prime, the First Order used the Amaxines to inject billions of Credits as start-up capital into Rinnrivin's cartel, turning the hitherto minor cartel into a major crime syndicate. Establishing a mutual relationship with the Amaxines, Rinnrivin embarked on lucrative smuggling and gambling operations with the proceeds being channeled through shadowy corporations and Centrist sources back to the First Order, which used the money to rebuild its fleet

In addition, the First Order also recruited several Centrist senators like Lady Carise Sindian as clandestine agents who worked to subvert the New Republic from within. Many Centrists, an informal faction in the New Republic's Galactic Senate who favored a stronger central government and military, admired the Old Empire's leaders and practices."

and for the Starkiller Base project:



remember that it's a planet, not a 100% artifical space station constructed from zero like the 2 Death Stars (120-160 km of diameter, and even 200 km for the Death Star 2 in the new canon), and even for a planet it's small, 660 km, it's smaller than the Moon and Pluto.

 

Palpatine's Empire relied on estimated 500 trillions citizens, properly taxed ,human race drafted to arm forces,industrial complexes of thousands of planets put into Productions,and maintenance of war machine. All this enabled production of one Superweapon at the time and maintainig navy of about 200 capital ships larger than 1 kilometer(star destroyers and larger ships).
It could be that Snoke is using massive droid labor force?There are hints from Aftermath books about ancient Predori Empire and their advanced sentinel droids.

 

So how exactly does that "Mega" Destroyer compare to the previous ships size-wise ? Is it alot bigger than a super star destroyer ?

 

It's 60 km wide.
