Also, that article that went into great depth about...

the cost of a Star Destroyer was great. I don't think his calculations were based on the right things...the cost of a Ford Class Carrier and all. I'd probably base it on a space going vessel.

The article reminded me of the other I saw which calculated that the Empire would need a minimum of 25K Star Destroyers.
