Unidentified High Republic Era Ship
It’s profile kind of reminds me of a VCX with wings.
I truly don't know how they're going to distinguish this era, visually at least, from the others. Because this just looks like "generic Star Wars ship" to me. And the character depictions we've seen so far look like "generic Jedi" or "generic Scum & Villainy" to me. I'm trying to be positive, and I intend to read the adult novels at the very least , but I'm left unconvinced by what I've seen so far. I mean, hyperspace travel has already been around for thousands of years during the Skywalker era... is it really that dramatic to say, "Yes, but they were slightly less good at it during the High Republic"?
Nevermind. I'm being a Debbie Downer!

They could go the same route as the KotOR/SWtOR games. Essentially making the older ships more blocky slightly less streamlined versions of the skywalker era ships.
YT models:
Consular class:
Slave:
T14/B-wing/K-wing?
you get the idea.
Though, personally I'd like to see the High Republic era feature more stylistic ships. Retro sci-fi looking ships. It's supposed to represent the peak of the Republic so, whatever the spaceship version of those old cars from the 60s would be? lol
So uh.... futurama style? lol

I support this idea. Otherwise new Star Wars risks becoming a pastiche. I already think that The Mandalorian rides dangerously close to that edge at times. It's like, I get it, jackets, gloves and helmets are big in the Star Wars galaxy. Haha

Looks like something that would fit in Elite: Dangerous.
