The original visual-effects model anchors an uncertain ship length

A recollection of the production model explains why estimates cluster around six hundred to six hundred fifty meters without creating a firm canonical dimension.

Question

Why is the BC-304 often estimated at roughly six hundred to six hundred fifty meters long?

Short answer

The estimate appears to come from the original visual-effects model, but the underlying production reference was not available to verify during the discussion.

Notes

A commenter remembers a presentation of the original three-dimensional model that placed the BC-304 above two hundred meters and probably near six hundred. That recollection is tentatively linked to the roughly 650-meter figure used in the analysis. Neither side can recover the production showcase during the exchange, so the number remains derived rather than firmly documented. These precise-looking specifications depend on visual-effects assets, fan reference works, and unverified memories of production material.
