These shipyards never sleep

Is that ship to scale? Looks like it at first glance.

- A quick search says 150m so it might be close, maybe be a bit too big?

  Way too big. That's Drydock 12 at Newport News Shipbuilding, which is some 2173 feet (~660 meters) long. 150 meters should be roughly 1/4 of that drydock, but the ship looks like it takes up closer to 2/3 of the available space, meaning it appears closer to about 400 meters in length.

  For the Tantive IV length? Wookiepedia says 126 meters.
