i have recently noticed that many of the cis ships including their banking clan ships look very much like the rebel transports! and the cis frigate looks very much like the mon calamari cruiser. then u have the arc-170 wich is obviously where the x wing came from (yes i know its from the republic but i just thought id chuck it in there . do the rebels have anything origanal or do they just copy everyone else or is it possible that the rebels first uncovered cis equipment then as the ages went on modified it and advanced it.

p.s that was a rhetorical question it dosent need to be answered(feel free to if u wish) but i just wanted to point out those few examples that the rebels do copy alot from cis.
