It's not a very good movie, doesn't seem very well-researched.
Here's the video I'm watching now, which I guess is going to
show off a Squadron 42 battle:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2PIGAMDCR58Immediately, two things come to mind:
a) The first actual character we see is on a "destroyer". Short
for "submarine destroyer", I don't think calling a ship a "destroyer"
makes much sense for a spacecraft, unless it goes after cloaked ships(?).
b) The guy sends operational intelligence back to someone -- a family
member, one would assume -- which is strictly verboten in a "real"
Navy. "Loose lips sink ships."
Anyway, I'm going to try to suspend disbelief and watch this thing.
Thought you all might be interested, too.
