Reminds me of the US Navy report from a few years ago on why we shouldn't build Death Star-like projects. Droids and X-wings are the way to go.

Huge carriers that are sitting ducks = Death Stars

Supersonic anti-ship missiles that can sink huge carriers = droids / x-wings.

Deathstar should've had these.
