About this converter
Battlestar TRS ships run from 8.37m to 1789.8m long. Blackbird opens at 8.37, Viper Mk II at 8.4, Raptor at 8.6, Cylon Raider at 8.94, Viper Mk VII at 9.86, TOS Raider at 12.5, Colonial One at 84.5, Valkyrie at 649, Basestar and Rebel Basestar at 1030.69 wide, Galactica at 1438.64 and Pegasus at 1789.8. That makes one Pegasus equal over two hundred Vipers or over twenty one Colonial Ones. Fighters cluster near 8, liners near 84, battlestars near 1400 to 1700. Every value here is the Wiki CG length with width rows labeled.
How to use it
Pick two ships and a unit in the top row. The three boxes below stay linked. Change any number and the other two update to the matching size. The bars below scale to Pegasus so you can see the gap at a glance, shown in the unit you picked. Ratios are exact divisions of Wiki numbers.
Two honest caveats. First, VFX scales for shots, so on screen size shifts against CG refs. Second, Galactica 1414 old chart and 1444 Lebowitz differ from infobox 1438, rows pin 1438 and note variants. Basestar length pieces 856 and 1039 combine to width 1030, rows pin width.
