    This is like asking “Who would win in a fight, a submarine or a jet?”

    The two combat styles aren’t comparable. Star Trek is based on naval battles, in fact, IMHO, the very best OG Trek episode, “Balance of Terror” was based on a WWII set submarine combat novel and movie called “The Enemy Below”:

    Lucas specifically wanted Star Wars to emulate air combat and dogfights.

    This feels like a bit of a straw-man. In my youthful nonsensical cross-franchise pissing-match days, we pitted the Enterprise versus a Star Destroyer, or at least some other capital ship.

    Unless you were asking which one was cooler, in which case the Falcon wins every day and twice on Sunday.

    I’m a Trekkie though and through, but I still think the Millenium Falcon wins that battle in a simple one on one.
