Summary:

Star Wars has some huge ships, and this extends to Republic as they operated in the Clone Wars.

Below are the five included ships, though **out of order**! Watch the video to learn more and to see which ship comes out on top!

1. The Venator Class Star Destroyer: The most famous of the Republic ships, the Venator was an early​ Star Destroyer + transport ship hybrid which made up much of the Republic's navy. The ship would later serve as the basis for one of the most famous Star Wars ships - the Imperial Star Destroyer

2. The Imperial Star Destroyer: Although, at the time it was known as the Imperator Star Destroyer, we all know Star Wars' most well known capital ship as the Imperial.

3. The Mandator Star Dreadnought: The Mandator was the only true dreadnought used by the Republic. Arguably the first Super Star Destroyer, the Mandator I Dreadnought was revived for the Clone Wars, and later replaced by the Mandator II. The Empire would continue the line of ships with the Mandator III and, what is argue is essentially the same ship, the Bellator Super Star Destroyer.

4. The Dreadnought Heavy Cruiser: Despite what the name suggests, the Dreadnought was actually on the smaller side. Still, powerful weaponry and a strong hull made the Dreadnought a force to be reckoned with.

5. The Praetor Class Battleship: Another old but large ship, like the Mandator I, the Praetor was 4km long but also from the days of the Old Republic. We know little of the ship line, other than that a Praetor power generator would serve to power Echo Base on Hoth!
