ISD at top left of the image is clearly some distance behind Executor.

So that would mean the ISD in the middle is approximately the same distance in front, since both seem the same size...
The ISD completely on the right, however, is very far from the SSD...

Simple explain it is that both sides they us technology that allow inside to bigger the amount space in outside. In DR. Who we see all time so no reason Star Trek and Star wars they did not do the same thing. We even saw that kind technology Star Terk Enterprise episode Future Tense.

lol yeah it would "solve" things but I'm afraid your little theory wouldn't be very popular. ;)

Even better explanation is that the camera lenses used to "record" the events in ST and SW somehow distort the visuals through refraction and thus why the scalings are off... :)

Or do we treat this one as a SW style "Defiant scaling issue"?

I prefer the latter, as a big 1.6km ship seems really cool to me...

Hoenstly, I'd say the size needs to be recalculated.

Welcome to the forum!

Why do you think it needs to be recalculated, Idazmi?
