    Which makes total sense the Imperial had numerous shipyards to build & repair ther fleet so far we have seen 1 SD& this one. So the FO has basically streamlined there operation so that they can build & maintain there fleet on the move.
    in the Phasma novel stormtrooper trading is split between 2 SD the Finalizer under Phasma trained them after 16 & the Absolution under the new Cardinal character who take the raw cadets & trains them until 16. So I think this FO Navy is a lot smaller then we think it is

    Staggering fact.

    That Snoke's "thing" is large 1/2 diameter of the first Death Star(120 km).
    It is "on paper"a ship,but from engineering point,construction undertaking of same order of magnitude as Death Star...smaller than DS but much bigger than Imperial dreadnaughts.

    An we know only Kuat dockyards had capacity of bulding dreadnaughts(SSD) up to 20 km...so...now I am prone to believe Snoke has engineering resources we do not know about jet despite all "conventional"explanations

    I really like the fact that they are finally introducing new things technology-wise. new ships, new weapons, new vehicules. TFA really lacked that "fresh" feeling that the PT had ( even if it wasn't nearly as good as the OT )

    Still baffling ship to me.
    Kuat dockyards(largest shipbuilding facility in known galaxy), put to its limits produced 20 km long battleships for the Empire.

    This ship is basically a mobile Kuat Dockyard. For all we know it is just a ship yard that they strapped a lot of engines onto & then over the years slowly added to it so it becomes what we see in TLJ.

    To put it in perspective: The Supremacy is just under 3 times the length of Manhattan Island. Imagine this thing hovering over NYC.

    Maybe Supremacy started as Infinity(Eclipse) drednaught ,that ship was nucleus from which imperals started after battle od Jakku,and it was gradualy expanded to left and right for 30 years?

    Force Nun could be right(its imaginable scenario).
    Last Imperial super star destroyer(Infinity-Eclipse),which was send in to Unknown regions to serve as starting point for exiled Imperials,is in its long axis same as Supremacy is thick looking frontaly. From the Aftermath, it says dozen other ships escaped into UR(Star Destroyers presumably).Maybe they slowly started dissasembling those ships in the void of Unknown Space,and expanded original SSD in lateral direction,turning it gradualy in to a mobile wing-like base?

    If this ugly fellow will not be almost 8 foot tall and probably as powerfull as Darth Plagueis the Wise ,I would say that he suffers from serrious inferiority complex.He calls himself Supreme Leader.His ship he named at the end Supremacy,and is indeed big as some EU countries,and even his servants are no less than of the first order.
    I dream about Luke entering his throne room in his new Dark cloak, and that look, from Hungarian magazine, than he draws Vader's red light saber and starts to chase him (him in his gold housecoat and slippers)all around.
    I am talking about Snoke of course,not Mike.

    Snoke's brand new 60 kilometers long jacht(for long walks).:D
    Counting FO resources they neded..let say almost 30 years to finish it (training of children from birth never stopped on it after Hux and children came from Jakku,expanded though,and best were personaly trained by Snoke into his Praetorian Guard).

    At first glance, the shape reminds me of Padme's ship, just a much larger scale and not as shiny and smooth. Triangle openings underneath look as though a SD or two would fit up into it.
