ok I was exaggerating with those specific ship types, but still, this is definitely more like x-wings and tie fighters flying around corvettes than it is a bunch of slow naval vessels exchanging broadsides. look a the Birds of Prey and Defiant, those are definitely doing maneuvers that would make Wedge Antilles proud, and they are still over 100m long/wide.
