But yeah he says that too
Originally posted by AzrongerIt was a 300-m frigate, and, while the lower half may have been broken off, it is a fair estimate that the fore half of the Salvation had the mass of a 200-m frigate (if not more).
The frigate feat has been debunked, yeah.
The ratio of the mass of a 300-meter frigate to that of a 200-meter frigate with the same density is 27:8. Half of that is 13.5:8.
8/13.5=0.5926
In other words, assuming only 60% the "fore half" of the Salvation (which, incidentally, was where the bulk of its mass was) remained, it'd still be bigger than a 200-meter frigate.

"A trembling shape up and to his left chose that moment to give way, showering molten fragments all along the spine of the ship. The primary array was no great loss: he couldn't have heard anyone anyway over the racket in his ears. But the forward turbolasers and primary sensor unit, the next two chunks to go, were more of a concern... Several lower decks peeled back and were swept away, including the bridge. Most of the short-range array was gone, leaving him with just the base to hold him steady. He clenched his hands into fists and willed the ship to keep going... With a bone-jarring crack, the spine connecting fore and aft sections of the frigate snapped clean through. Starkiller reached out with the Force, trying desperately to keep the two pieces together, but nothing could be done... The fore section he stood upon was going to come down among them, doing a considerable amount of damage in the process."
nah.

That image is glorious.
