Now hold on a second Dan. You've remastered the Daedalus class. Yet you haven't remastered the Omega class even though I have asked nicely. What's going on?
Excellent remake Daniel, I love the SGC ships. Sometime maybe you could dig up some info and make a video or 2 about the other SGC class ships, like the Ares, Excalibur, and Achilles. The Achilles being almost 1700M long is just huge next to the Daedalus! Thanks again Daniel for doing what you do!
That's what happens when you piss off Earth. If your going to attack us you better kill us all off cause if we survive or drive you off, you can bet will eventually come after you and make you pay for what you did to us a 1000 fold. The buggers are victims of this lesson as well as the Kirathi,
You mean as they are gifted overpowered ships because they are the holy angels that do no wrong whilest the otherraces had to rip their asses open to get to that point?
Kevin Gomolchak I didn’t even know that. But that is super awesome. Anyway please correct me if I’m wrong, but did he die from cancer or what actually happened to him. He was my favorite leader character.
The greatest bit on cannon is even the alternate reality episode where sam carter sacrifices herself on board the phoenix. In that alternate reality, Gen hammond did not die, and thus THAT ship was actually called phoenix.
Unless of course your a small drug cartel with some salvaged golould ships. than you can upgrade them better than a semi ascended golould, the race that beat the ancients and ships designed by literal omniscient gods and fight the 304 on even grounds because sgu is shi... i mean because you did research that closed the gap with the thousands of years more advance tech the asgaurd gave earth.
@@TheArklyte well they bring the biggest and one of the most advanced pice of tech to be studied on earth, hoin itslef be a huge tech boom for the tau'ri and the city ship itself can take way more punishment than anything on yhe tau'ri arsenal, when they eventualy uderstand the fucking thing completely integarte the ship on the fleet is a locical step, and considering this the personall loss of the expedition i cant say it wass a faliure.
I loved how over time most of the SGC enemies sorta mocked the 'puny tau'ri' vessels, then later on are like 'crap kill that ship now' the moment a Daedelus ship shows up.
As ship designs go, it really is rather excellent. Like the Ancients before them, the Tau'ri build their warships to be effective rather than pretty. They have a very utilitarian and efficient design, packing considerable versatility and power into a remarkably small spaceframe. It does tie into how the Tau'ri are very small in comparison to their peers, but they are also powerful and exceptionally innovative.
It's also fitting to see how their designs sort of echo the design aspects of the ancients. It's a subtle sign of their heritage. Both in the sense that they descended from the ancient survivors, and that they were on a path to reoccupy the position the ancients once held in the universe.
@@legionofthedamned157 the bridge is right infront of the armor plating on the "neck" of the ship but yeah not clad in armor sadly The tower ontop is only for aviational purposes
The good looking part is impossible to argue about, the realistic part however... Let's keep this short, you cannot possibly throw a ship like this into hard sci-fi and get away with it.

This ship looked like something we humans might build. Which was one of the things I loved about it. Also I love the hanger were they built them, wish that had got more screen time.
THIS is why I love this channel. Everyone that talks about ships and/or space stuff is stuck on the star wars/star trek quicksand trap, but you my dear Daniel, look at the underrated masterpice of Stargate and it's lore.
The most powerful Earth warship ever created in the sci-fi universe... once it was upgraded with Asgard shields, beam transporter and beam weapons of course.
Barring outliers like the Xeelee or the Culture, which it would stand no chance against, the Daedalus could beat most ships in Star Wars and Star Trek individually. Not bad for contemporary humans that started out as the cosmic equivalent of barbarian apes.
Stargate SG1 is a very interesting franchise for these videos. The different technologies and not-really-realism-but-not-insane designs (perhaps influenced by the show's collaboration with the USAF) makes them quite interesting. Love SG1
I love the idea that the F-35 program is just a cover for the 302 and the 304 programs. Could you imagine how frustrating that would be for the engineers who worked on them, having to pretend to struggle with a modular in-atmosphere craft when they're pumping out 302s by the dozen? It's like that presentation that Carter and Dr. Lee give in "Bounty" where they're trying to pass off a shoddy, intentionally unreliable plasma rifle as cutting-edge new tech.
@@DocWolph as Naval man I approve of the design for the BC304 because its a lean but adaptable ship doesn't need whole bunch of crew for it that really does make difference in combat. Its got firepower in smaller package. I served on carriers and have visited destroyers and can safely say destroyers are much more efficient and are much more capable executing missions.
The Daedalus class really did have a penchant for punching well above it's weight class; even in it's original configuration it always managed to be a damn tough little ship that could trade blows with much larger Goa'uld Motherships, and stand a decent chance of winning any 1 on 1 fight.
I love how every piece of technology in this series has an origin earlier in the series. Where did the 302 get its sheilds and hyperdrive? They retrofitted it from a goa'uld al-kesh heavy bomber. Everything can be traced to earlier in the series. Such great progression.
303 you mean, the 302 doesn't have shields and the only hyperdrive ever installed on the 302 fighters was of Tau'ri design and creation. It was based on Goa'uld drive design, but it was drastically altered to run on Naquadriah which allowed it to be installed on a fighter class ship. The 303 (Prometheus) however had shields lifted from the Goa'uld initially, and after the failure of its Naquadriah based homemade drive it had an Alkesh sourced drive installed.
This ship was such a great design being the first design for intergalactic travel, it feels almost believable and a natural progression in advancing space exploration and combat.
The Daedalus is probably the most human looking spaceship in my opinion. For me the design is perfect! It looks incredible cool, is practical, upgradable, a reasonable size and really powerful.
Your opening quote was by far my favorite part of the SG1 series finally. There could have been no greater statement of how far Earth had come over the 10 years of the show.
That's gotta be my fav ship. It really does boggle the mind that of all the far future sci fi out there, nobody else thought up autonomous, sapient ships.
This has to be one of the best deep space cruisers out there, in terms of aesthetics and weaponry, it's very awesome. With reversed-engineered Asgard, Ancient, Goa'uld tech, it makes the ship more powerful and versatile, even with a small size of around 200 meters...10/10.
Can we get Spacedock videos for the following ships and tech from Stargate: - Ancient Super Weapon [Chair] - Hasara Space Station - Midway Space Station - Lagrangian Point Satellite - Dakara Super Weapon - Replicator Attack Vessel - Gadmeer Terraformer - Stromos - Seberus - Tollan Stargate - Orlin's Stargate We understand that some of these items may require speculation on their dimensions, history, etc due to limited avaliable information. Any speculation as well as what factual knowledge there is avaliable is gladly welcomed. Thanks and can't wait to see these possible future videos!
When you're intro started playing Battlezone II music I was hit with a wave of Nostalgia. Glad to see I'm not the only person who remembers that game or Stargate for that matter.
ya get the feeling that if Sisko ever saw her in battle he would simply sit in his command chair...a small smirk on his face. Damn it was always satisfying to see a 304 kick ass and take names!
In (my) head cannon, we British got the 7th Daedalus class ship to come off the production line. Acceptable names include: Churchill Hawking Turing Brunel Burners-Lee Spitfire (just coz) Nightingale Fleming Whittle
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.
Played as Stargate Command in Stellaris. Would have been cool to see a fleet of ships from Earth that were not just BC-304's we didnt even see a BC-303 along with the 304 since Prometheus was RIP by the Ori.
The Daedalus was such a big improvement over the Prometheus, even if you just go by the design. So much more sleek looking. Also, gotta give props to the Asgard for developing those beam weapons. Unless you have a ton of Ancient drones at your disposal, those beam weapons are the most deadly weapon in the Stargate universe.
I'll venture to say the Asgard came up with the plasma beam weapon after watching the Ori mop the floor at the Supergate. They grabbed what data they could get and reverse-engineered their own version tailor-made to be used against the Ori.
God what a ship! All time fav for me. Only small issue I had with the video is the size you stated, it should be somewhere around 650-680m long. The guys over at Trekyards did a good breakdown on the ship and why it should be that size.
by far one of my all time favorite ships ever created, the designs so cool to me and its weapons and above all else the SOUND design for it is amazing, no other ship fills me with excitement like this one
I absolutely love this ship class I just hope we will get to see more Stargate in the future with possibly more advanced ships since the last SG-1 episode where they got the entire Asgard database so I could be possible to see a whole new advanced ship but you never know what can happen.
A great revisit of an older video. That ship was just insane, if they had done more series i wonder what they could come up with to actually give it a challenge, the only thing that was able to slow it down and cripple it was the Wraith super hive ship
Aaaah, you did my alltime favourite spaceship! I love this design so much, I built one in 1:1 scale in Minecraft. Out of smoothstone. On a survival server!!! Took me 4 months just for the exterior hull.
On Sunday, August 25th 2019 at 05:09 CET 28 Ori or Goa'Uld disliked this video: 😂 Well, a bit more seriously: I so loved the Stargate Series's due to their close proximity to our wn reality with so reliable persons, with their flaws, their humor (especially Jack O'Neill's cheeky and cool comments in many situations and the way O'Neill treated the oh-so-powerful slimy snake heads ... err ... I mean ... almighty gods. 😉. And the BC 304 class space crafts immediately won my love. Thanks for this video. I sometimes wondered, what the faces of the Ori ships commanders was as the USAF Odyssey after its Asgard upgrades destroyed at least two Ori battle cruisers as seen at 01:41 in this video seemingly with ease and even with dogfight tactics which is impressive for a ship this size. Sometimes, in the time the series's were aired first in my German home country, I ofte tried to imagine crossover scenarios like: Post Asgard beam weapon upgraded (as mentioned at 2:24 and shown at 01:41 with the) USAF Odyssey (right after the Stargate episode "Unending" S10E20) appears two days before the events of the pilot episodes of the ENTERPRISE series (the prequell series to the TOS) as shown in "Broken Bow" S1E1/E2. Here, after some conversations, the USAF guys under the command of general Hank Landry agrees on bringing the Klingon Klaang back to the Klingon home world after he got healed in the San Francisco hospital after he crash landed on Earth and got shot down by the northern American farmer. The Suliban couldn't track the USAF Odyssey while in the hyperspace channel since the Suiban uses Warpdrive tracking technologies and the Odyssey could easily reach Qo'nos within just a few hours (even without the additional power output of a ZPM) while the Enterprise NX-01would need days when travelling with max speed and a slightly overused warp core. Or later in the ENTERPRISE series when a fully Asgard upgraded USAF Daedalus arrives durign the Earth-Xindi conflict and destroys the second and major Xindi weapon with the Asgard beam weapons like it has done it with the Ori battle cruisers. Or another crossover. The Asgard upgraded USAF Odyssey arrives in the Babylon5 universe right during the last major Earth-Minbari battle, the "Battle of the Line" and the Odyssey destroys some Minbari Sharlin class battle ships.
One thing that might have been helpful to mention is that the Tau'ri is the name used for the Earthlings in the SG-1 franchise. Named by either the Jaffa or the Goa'uld, if I recall.
I sometimes imagine what the Taur'i fleet would look like another decade or so in the future. Perhaps when Stargate Program is public knowledge and more funding provided, humanity can design specialized warships like we have on the oceans. A designated carrier, destroyers and cruisers each with their own roll and formed battle groups.
If the dimensions of the F-302 are correct, there no way 8 of them could fit in one of the landing bays. Those landing bays are really big (the episode of Stargate Atlantis with the wraith computer virus showed the inside of one of the landing bays with f-302s parked inside). The BC304 must be much larger.
I respect that despite being a battlecruiser, a compliment of fighters was included with this ship in the Stargate series. Big ship, big guns. Small fighters, awesome dogfights.
This is one of my favorite Sci-Fi ships. What I always loved about Star Gate is that they didn't start off with everything. They acquire tech, learn new things and later implement them. The Daedalus felt like a real ship our military would build in that world. The sets weren't that detailed and maybe a little generic. But it really was one of the most believable ships. And I mean in terms of SG1 not compared to say The Expanse.
In the XSGCOM fanfic, they also have 2 Ha’taks that they end up naming Enterprise and Admiral Kuznetsov. The command is surprisingly receptive, figuring people will just assume they’re talking about the naval carriers. Caldwell is given the Enterprise and hates O’Neill for suggesting the name, since people keep calling him Jean-Luc now. O’Neill suggests he get a toupee and make out with Anise to get a different nickname. Chekhov gets the Kuznetsov. In an alternate future, they build a super-awesome BC-305 with ZPM-enhanced Asgard beams, which lays waste to the Aschen home world after they try to infect Earth. The Aschen are forced to warn their past selves not to piss off X-COM. Meanwhile, the Tollan build powerful warships using their own and Asgard tech, including a planet-busting bomb based on that generator that destroyed their neighboring planet.
I always keep my captions on, and every time he says Tau' Ri, something different came up. Once it said towel ray, and my first thought was "don't forget to bring a Tau'Ri". You wanna get high?😁
Wasnt enough time in an interview Jon Mallozi stated if Atlantis was to gain another season you would have seen one more BC304 that most likely would have been British controlled

HMS Thunder Child, as it has a proven lineage of fighting aliens.
Nice names, it would be nice if the next bc304 would be

As a Space Engineers player, this channel is just a gold mine!
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.
Really appreciating the use of the Supreme Commander soundtrack in your latest videos. An awesome set of tracks for one of my favorite strategy games.
I love this ship's design. It's so clunky and utilitarian looking. It's basically just a large box.
A large box which can destroy anything with several well aimed shots
I remember concept art for Tau'ri ships, Transport, Destroyer, and etc.
Played as Stargate Command in Stellaris. Would have been cool to see a fleet of ships from Earth that were not just BC-304's we didnt even see a BC-303 along with the 304 since Prometheus was RIP by the Ori.
Indeed.

Such a great-looking spaceship.
It's a shame that they had no chance to kick Anubis in the ass with these ships.
The Daedalus class ship has got to be one of my favorite ship designs ever. I would love to see it have made an appearance in B5. :)
This is one of my all time favorite sci fi ships! Awesome video!
The Daedalus was such a big improvement over the Prometheus, even if you just go by the design. So much more sleek looking. Also, gotta give props to the Asgard for developing those beam weapons. Unless you have a ton of Ancient drones at your disposal, those beam weapons are the most deadly weapon in the Stargate universe.
I'll venture to say the Asgard came up with the plasma beam weapon after watching the Ori mop the floor at the Supergate. They grabbed what data they could get and reverse-engineered their own version tailor-made to be used against the Ori.
God what a ship! All time fav for me.
Only small issue I had with the video is the size you stated, it should be somewhere around 650-680m long. The guys over at Trekyards did a good breakdown on the ship and why it should be that size.
by far one of my all time favorite ships ever created, the designs so cool to me and its weapons and above all else the SOUND design for it is amazing, no other ship fills me with excitement like this one
BC-304 Daedalus YES YES YES YES, I LOVE YOU. Easy my favorite ship in anything.
Ahhh Stargate. Such a great series...And also, thanks for always doing videos on it...Brings a tear to my eye to see this pop up in my feed.
Makes you wonder how human ship designs would have evolved had they continued from SG: Atlantis and Destiny.
Just watched Atlantis season 1 episode 20 when the Daedalus appears so awesome great video!
I absolutely love this ship class I just hope we will get to see more Stargate in the future with possibly more advanced ships since the last SG-1 episode where they got the entire Asgard database so I could be possible to see a whole new advanced ship but you never know what can happen.
A great revisit of an older video. That ship was just insane, if they had done more series i wonder what they could come up with to actually give it a challenge, the only thing that was able to slow it down and cripple it was the Wraith super hive ship
The Daedalus Class is among my top 5 sci-fi ships, and I would definitely want it fighting on my side in a fantasy space battle.
My favorite ship in all of sci-fi! Awesome design, very versatile, cool sound effects and very effective in combat.
The Daedalus is one of the most beautiful sound designs I've ever seen! ❤️
Aaaah, you did my alltime favourite spaceship! I love this design so much, I built one in 1:1 scale in Minecraft. Out of smoothstone. On a survival server!!! Took me 4 months just for the exterior hull.
On Sunday, August 25th 2019 at 05:09 CET 28 Ori or Goa'Uld disliked this video: 😂
Well, a bit more seriously:
I so loved the Stargate Series's due to their close proximity to our wn reality with so reliable persons, with their flaws, their humor (especially Jack O'Neill's cheeky and cool comments in many situations and the way O'Neill treated the oh-so-powerful slimy snake heads ... err ... I mean ... almighty gods. 😉.
And the BC 304 class space crafts immediately won my love. Thanks for this video.
I sometimes wondered, what the faces of the Ori ships commanders was as the USAF Odyssey after its Asgard upgrades destroyed at least two Ori battle cruisers as seen at 01:41 in this video seemingly with ease and even with dogfight tactics which is impressive for a ship this size.
Sometimes, in the time the series's were aired first in my German home country, I ofte tried to imagine crossover scenarios like:
Post Asgard beam weapon upgraded (as mentioned at 2:24 and shown at 01:41 with the) USAF Odyssey (right after the Stargate episode "Unending" S10E20) appears two days before the events of the pilot episodes of the ENTERPRISE series (the prequell series to the TOS) as shown in "Broken Bow" S1E1/E2.
Here, after some conversations, the USAF guys under the command of general Hank Landry agrees on bringing the Klingon Klaang back to the Klingon home world after he got healed in the San Francisco hospital after he crash landed on Earth and got shot down by the northern American farmer.
The Suliban couldn't track the USAF Odyssey while in the hyperspace channel since the Suiban uses Warpdrive tracking technologies and the Odyssey could easily reach Qo'nos within just a few hours (even without the additional power output of a ZPM) while the Enterprise NX-01would need days when travelling with max speed and a slightly overused warp core.
Or later in the ENTERPRISE series when a fully Asgard upgraded USAF Daedalus arrives durign the Earth-Xindi conflict and destroys the second and major Xindi weapon with the Asgard beam weapons like it has done it with the Ori battle cruisers.
Or another crossover.
The Asgard upgraded USAF Odyssey arrives in the Babylon5 universe right during the last major Earth-Minbari battle, the "Battle of the Line" and the Odyssey destroys some Minbari Sharlin class battle ships.
Sounds like you should make some fanfiction I'd read
Every time i look at this ship I get bsg vibes from it.
Edit: "proudly sponsored by audible" you'll never hear him say that again
I thought so too. Those are some serious assholes
A bit disappointed the USS George Hammond wasn't mentioned by name after its rechristening. But a great modernisation of the old video!
You forgot about the first episode of Stargate Atlantis
Beating a horse here, the data on the dvd box was not based on studio models so reference trekyards data on the daedalus
I desperately hope we get another Stargate series someday, if only to see how badass the inevitable BC-305 would be.
One thing that might have been helpful to mention is that the Tau'ri is the name used for the Earthlings in the SG-1 franchise. Named by either the Jaffa or the Goa'uld, if I recall.
Always happy to see my favorite Sci-fi series get some love, even if all it was, was a remake of an old video :)
I sometimes imagine what the Taur'i fleet would look like another decade or so in the future. Perhaps when Stargate Program is public knowledge and more funding provided, humanity can design specialized warships like we have on the oceans. A designated carrier, destroyers and cruisers each with their own roll and formed battle groups.
That would be something
they nailed it with this ship class. looks just awesome
Nice! Just a quick typo correction: ordinance is a local law, ordnance is ammunition for a weapon. A common mistake
Fantastic video! The Daedalus is my all time favourite spaceship 😁
Good video as always. Love the content. When will you do the white star from B5?
The idea of China having a BC-304 makes me uncomfortable today.
You covered my favorite syfy series ever, one of the best. The video is spot on.
Ah new spacedock upload... *Gasps* A STAR GATE SHIP VIDEO YAY! Need to include more StarGate crafts in your comparison videos mate!
Best warship in Sci-Fi right here.
A beautiful and iconic warship/carrier.
One of my all-time favorite spaceship for sure
Loved these. Looked as sleek as a frieght train, and just as powerful.
Awesome video and a great supporter audible!
This is by far my favorite ship design in existence.
If the dimensions of the F-302 are correct, there no way 8 of them could fit in one of the landing bays. Those landing bays are really big (the episode of Stargate Atlantis with the wraith computer virus showed the inside of one of the landing bays with f-302s parked inside). The BC304 must be much larger.
I never noticed this until now, but there's two Earth Point of Origin symbols on either side of the neck of the ship. Neat.
I respect that despite being a battlecruiser, a compliment of fighters was included with this ship in the Stargate series.
Big ship, big guns. Small fighters, awesome dogfights.
This is one of my favorite Sci-Fi ships. What I always loved about Star Gate is that they didn't start off with everything. They acquire tech, learn new things and later implement them. The Daedalus felt like a real ship our military would build in that world. The sets weren't that detailed and maybe a little generic. But it really was one of the most believable ships. And I mean in terms of SG1 not compared to say The Expanse.
Let your sponsor know that I want them to audio narrate the Stargate books
In the XSGCOM fanfic, they also have 2 Ha’taks that they end up naming Enterprise and Admiral Kuznetsov. The command is surprisingly receptive, figuring people will just assume they’re talking about the naval carriers. Caldwell is given the Enterprise and hates O’Neill for suggesting the name, since people keep calling him Jean-Luc now. O’Neill suggests he get a toupee and make out with Anise to get a different nickname. Chekhov gets the Kuznetsov. In an alternate future, they build a super-awesome BC-305 with ZPM-enhanced Asgard beams, which lays waste to the Aschen home world after they try to infect Earth. The Aschen are forced to warn their past selves not to piss off X-COM.
Meanwhile, the Tollan build powerful warships using their own and Asgard tech, including a planet-busting bomb based on that generator that destroyed their neighboring planet.
I always keep my captions on, and every time he says Tau' Ri, something different came up. Once it said towel ray, and my first thought was "don't forget to bring a Tau'Ri". You wanna get high?😁
I've been binging stargate whole week. On season 6 of sg1
You can see where BSG got some of the styling! I am kind of surprised 1 of those battleships WEREN'T given to the Royal Navy!
Wasnt enough time in an interview Jon Mallozi stated if Atlantis was to gain another season you would have seen one more BC304 that most likely would have been British controlled
this is probably my favorite ship design of all time
I like how the little engravings on the side resemble the symbol for earth :)
Hard to pick between this and the Omega class from B5 for my favorite non star trek Sci Fi ship of all time. Absolutely adore this design.
Thanks for the SG love spacedock!
