What are your favorite spaceships from science fiction shows, movies, games, comics, anime or anything?

The Swordfish from Cowboy Bebop is probably my top favorite. I like the idea of small compact ships meant for a single person and going fast.

For that same reason I love the Razorback from The Expanse. Except the engine to ship ratio in this universe probably makes more sense realistically. The cockpit 360 swivel system is also really clever.

The Outlaw Star from… Outlaw Star is not a small ship. I just like it because it looks cool despite its goofy unrealistic grapple arms that hold weapons.

    Earth’s Omega -class destroyer was and still is supremely cool to me. Also the utilitarian and cobbled together look or Narn ships had its appeal.

      They always have me chills when they dropped in as you knew shit was going to go down.

      The ships the humans develop in Stargate seem to owe a debt to the Omega-class but it may just be that it follows the same design thinking - we’d likely start off making things a bit utilitarian at first.

      Also the utilitarian and cobbled together look or Narn ships had its appeal.

      And they had great markings on them - it reflected their warrior culture, where the Centauri were a little more ostentatious.
