    The Star Destroyer took forever to start firing, it would have been using antiaircraft weapon's, ion cannon's as well as missiles to engage the fighter's and even missiles way sooner. Her Turbo Lasers and Tractor Beam projector's would also be used for defense as well. The Tie fighters would also be hard to engage as they can slow to a stop so the jet's would just fly past and get shot. She also Has 72 Tie Series fighter's from standard to bomber's as well as various shuttle's. In reality the carrier group would be taken out by high altitude orbital bombardment. The graphics were cool though.

      Lets be honest, the ISD wouldnt even go into orbit for a Carrier group like this and just do a Orbital Bombardment of the entire Fleet without them realizing it and if the Tie-Fighters would go in for the American Fighter Planes they would propably overwelm them and kill them with ease as well sicne a Tie-Fighters Pilot has a much higher G-Tolerance because of Star Wars Magic as we could see during the Newer Movies wheer Tie-Fighters pulled some serious manuvers in very low Planetary Orbit. So yea id say 10/10 ISD win even if there where no Fighters beeing deployed by the ISD it would still win because of its Shield Generators and other high tech stuff

      While you are correct, there are also different type shields in the Star wars lore. Ray shields are plasma based shielding, Particle shields protect against physical projectiles, and Deflectors which the most common kind on Star Ships, Protect from both but not as effectively as the other two its more of dampener.

    Truly an amazing meme worthy video that made me laugh my ass off. However the major problem with this is that the SD would simply ascend to low orbit and then perform a Base Delta Zero. Which is an orbital bombardment that turns the targeted area into molten slag. Therefore the CSG would never even see the SD let alone hit the damn thing.

    A few details from a retired USN vet. The surface ships depicted can be maxed out with 64 Harpoons, which are not fired from VLS. There are 640 VLS launchable missiles, an assortment of SM2s and Tomahawks, not ASROCs or ESSMs between the DDGs and CGs. All of which can be fired upon the Star Destroyer. This doesn't include the additional 20 or so more Harpoon/Tomahawks that each of those subs can launcher either from it vertical launchers or its torpedo tubes. Harpoons can be programmed to fire down a bearing. SM2s are semi-homing meaning the ships lock onto the target. The FFGs use a single missile launcher with a beam riding SM1 missile. The carrier is also equipped with the surface to air version of the AMRAAM, aka, NATO Sea Sparrow. Given the size of the target and any and all the missiles can be fired it with very little probability of missing. Just the missiles I mentioned from only the ships (as opposed to the aircraft) can deliver at least 250,000 lbs of explosives to that Star Destroyer in less than 10 minutes. Then the guns between just the CGs and DDGs can deliver another 250,000 lbs of explosives once the star destroyer closes within 8 miles. CIWS is strictly a defensive weapon and was used incorrectly in this video. If you're going to lock onto with the CIWS you might as well use the 50 cals too. Even though there are 25mm cannons as well, they're meant for surface targets. Each of those ships, even the carrier, has at least a dozen 50s each it can bear down on that Star Destroyer with thousands of rounds.
    The big question is, is a half a million pounds of explosives enough to rip this star destoyer out of the sky? If not, each tomahawk can be equipped a low yield, tactical nuclear warhead.

  • @samuellord8576

    Unlike most commenters, I own a Star Destroyer, purchased directly from the spirit of Anakin Skywalker, who was downsizing. Some notes: 1) it is very large and heavy; 2) It doesn't make those great rumbling sounds from the movie because nobody has a 50 TW cyclotron to start the engines; 3) the alien paint is peeling in a disgusting way; 4) parking any mile-long vehicle is a challenge; and 5) it is quite the conversation piece. It could no doubt slay a carrier group, but as I told Crazy Chester, I'm a peaceful man.

    This should be a piece of cake for the carrier group. Tie fighters rely on dogfighting, the US relies on missiles that can hit targets at least 25 miles away. Cruise missiles can hit targets thousands of miles away and any nuclear submarines in the carrier group will be able to launch nuclear ICBMs. If the star destroyer is in range of any of the carrier groups weapons than it's in trouble and TIE fighters are obsolete af compared to any US fighter post-Korean war
    Edit: Also star wars ships shields are typically designed to protect against laser or plasma weapons. It seems like most shields offer no protection against physical objects like missiles

    TIE Fighter have top speed of only 1200 kph in atmosphere: equivalent to 746 mph or Mach 0.98 and no shielding. Top speed of F18 Hornet 1190mph. F 14 Tomcat 1550 mph twice speed of Tie Fighters with no shielding. Both F 14 and F 18 missiles and guns would be capable shooting them down. The Tie Fighters is an aerodynamic disaster, with a drag coefficient of 0.98, making it roughly as aerodynamic as a cube. Once again in scenarios such as this that Aircraft Carrier would have everything in Air protecting the most available asset Aircraft carrier but in your sim you always seem to put only half its air wing up. Now, Star destroyer does have shielding, the question is how much can it take being struck by missle coming from 4 destroyer 2 frigates 2 Cruiser plus submarines and F14 and F18. The Star Destroyer doesn't have large weapon system on bottom of ship.But it is capable of firing downward It's primarily weapons are along side and top of Star Destroyer sort of old school like 16th and 17th century War ships using broadside firing. The first ship to fire missiles would be from destroyers carrying 90 missiles each, frigates with their missiles and anti ship missiles penguins and hell fire missle by its and Cruiser they would have 60 missiles are carried for each of the two mk41 VLS. You don't show shielding of Star Destroyer nor its anti Fighters defense equivalent to Old World War II Style anti Aircraft stlye guns, the Star Destroyer called turbo lasers. You don't indicate which Star Destroyer that have different armament such turbo lasers ion cannons and missiles. All in all horrible video no research done at all.

      More importantly, a Star Destroyer is capable of bombarding surface targets from orbit. Why would it go into the atmosphere, where it would be in range of aircraft and missiles, while the Star Destroyer and its complement of TIE fighters would suffer from poor aerodynamics?
      As an analogy, Roman legionnaires were probably better at hand-to-hand combat than US marines. So, this is like the scenario of a Roman legion vs. a modern Marine brigade, but for some reason the Marines don't just shoot the Romans from a safe distance and instead decide to fight in a hand-to-hand melee.
