STARGATE Ships Explained: DAEDALUS CLASS Battlecruiser

  • In this video we are going to look at the Daedalus class battle cruiser or BC-304 in Stargate. The ship is introduced at the end of Stargate SG-1 and is seen throughout Stargate Atlantis and in Stargate Universe. It is the second generation capital ship built by humans after the Prometheus is destroyed. The ship played a vital role in fighting the Ori, the Lucian Alliance and other enemies. The Daedalus class comes with Asgard technology as standard in the form of shields and hyperdrive and was later fitted out with Asgard plasma beams.

    SMALL CORRECTION: The first Daedalus ship was completed before the destruction of Prometheus, but the program was ramped up after the incident.

      Firstly, they probably didn't have enough time to take over a ship. It was literally a few minutes from when the Asuran ships went derelict to when the planet blew up. Second, I don't think there was enough crew on either the Daedelus and Apollo to take many, or any ships. Let alone the fact the Ancient gene requires to man each ship I think was limited to mostly the Atlantis crew. I don't think anyone in the USAF which made up most of the crew on both ships, got the gene therapy since they were Earth-bound where things like the Geneva convention prevented this.

With the Daedalus class we have a blend of Ancient and Asgardian technology which represents 2 of the Four Races. The Nox won't share their technology and the Furlings have seemingly went extinct then the Tauri which are almost the 5th race all from the Milky way Galaxy so next would be to add the technology of the Ancients.

The Asgard transporters they call "Beaming", in the first episode of SG1 one of the soldiers who goes back to Abydos salutes Daniel with a Vulcan salute, Jack wanted the Prometheus to be called the Enterprise, and when accidentally sent to the past and Jack was being interrogated he said he was "Captain James T. Kirk of the Starship Enterprise." So you may not be off, they actually could have a copy of the series onboard XD
    There's also a Star Wars reference that cracks me up. Jack and Teal'c visits Carter, and Teal'c (wearing a cowboy outfit XD!) with a happy smile confirms that he'd watched the movies 9 times and really likes them. Sam then asks Jack if he never watched Star Wars, and he just shrugs and says "Well you know me and scifi".

      In a hypothetical Milky-Way vs Milky Way fight, at first, yes. But the Federation is very adaptable, and far from beyond stealing tech in times of war. They also have 1/4 of the galaxy's resources at hand, and a much larger, educated, technologically advance population from which to not only pool resources, but to innovate solutions.
      The SGU is barley branching out beyond earth, most humans exist in pre-tech civilizations, and they are still recovering from several galaxy wide events that ended in the destruction of, and/or limiting of off world allies and resources from which to draw.
      While your ten selected ships could launch a devastating attack on one or two locations, the Federation's weaker, but vastly larger number of ships could attack a hundred(or more) targets at once, only coming to together for select raids, and splitting up as soon as the mission failed.
      There is no way your 10 ships could keep up with, or hunt down the thousands of Federation ships. They would be relegated to protecting maybe 3 key systems, and some limited supply convoys.
      As soon as the Federation figured out the tech used, and adapted it to their own ships, and built new ships with that tech at the core, the SGU would be toast.

    I'm sure this has been mentioned before but the original model for a BC 304 was 600+ meters. This makes sense when you consider that each flight pod is a simplified carrier, although I believe they are always below the maximum capacity number of 302 on board. What has always seemed strange to me about this number is the apparently small crew and construction time for such a ship. I mean, even if we use more wartime logistics and manpower, taking as an example an Iowa class battleship took what, two years to complete? Even with more advanced technology it shouldn't take less time to build such a large ship.

    I suffered a brain injury 2 years ago so I have had to relearn everything and I am currently watching star gate Atlantis again and this did spoil some things but I don't mind I'm still going to watch it .

    The cost of the Daedelus was so cheap due to discounted resources, since mining operations were not solely done by humans of earth at cost, there were several alien tributary states that gave resources to earth in the form of Trinium and Naqadah. By the end of SG1 and Atlantis, Earth had become an interstellar superpower in two galaxies with colonies and trade partners, who need protection with a larger space fleet.

    You might want to recheck your measurements again because the internal hangar deck of a US carrier only goes from somewhere are around the jet blast shields for the forward catapults back to the end of the last elevator. So, not quite 2/3 the length of the ship.

    Nice job, good video. I may have a slight suggestion in regard the length of the Daedalus class BC in that you say the length of it is longer because of the size of the hanger bay. But, you seem to think that the hanger bays of an an aircraft carrier run the full length of the ship, which they don't. They tend to be about half to two thirds the length. So that would reduce the size considerably.

      Sure, but the hanger bay inside the Daedalus would not be the full length of those left and right sections either, since there are sunlight engine taking up space in that section too

    650 meters - yes, that sounds right. Sounds like somebody had a typo and nobody bothered to fix it.

    As a long time Stargate fan (I grew up watching these shows) I love seeing people cover various aspects of the series but it hurts seeing all the little inaccuracies and misinterpretation of the events.

    With the shows consistency and how well it carries on the lore I am very excited to see how in universe the Stargate program has evolved since we last left off universe. In 10 years there must have been some serious advancement in the cooperation of the Chinese Russians and Americans and it’ll be cool to see how the Human tactics have evolved since we left off.

    If memory serves they do now have replicator like tech, thanks to the asgard upgrades. (see the finel Sg-1 episode called unending for more)
