I think it's not the Mothership! It's the Drakh cruiser! It could be about 20% bigger, i think!
That is the Mothership:

Yeah, the Mothership launches cruisers like they were fighters.

Don't have the Drakh 2 ships with that siluette? A carrier, launching the raiders and a smaller one, the cruiser?

I think I read something like that anywhere in the past.

The Drakh cruiser is about 3,3 kilometers long, and the Nova is some where around 1,4 - 1,5 , so that ship should be at least 2 times as longer...

The Carrier launching Raiders is a big mutha, way over 10 km.

Somebody slap me if i'm totally wrong

There are multiple sizes of the Drakh Cruiser...one of the most commonly viewed is the ones that are generally longer than the Omeg but not by much.

The one I see down there looks pretty darn accurate.

The Drakh Mothership is of an undetermined sized (and the official charts I think are dead wrong on its size) and there may be varrying sizes of that as well.

That is right...it's my mistake. But it is not a cruiser, it is carrier class and there is 14 km long. It will be extremly difficult to adapt it in TBP.

Is it true or I have another mistake?

As I recall the carrier had a slightly different tail section and had several protrusions along the top. These are visible as Delen's Whitestar group "skin dance" to avoid enemy fire.
