Have you ever looked in a mirror? You should know that it reflects light. The film production of Star Wars doesn't seem to know this, however. With all their lasers and lightsabers, it would seem ligical to use mirrors to counteract them. After all, they are forms of light, aren't they? A spacecraft equipped with mirrors on all of its surfaces would also be rendered invisible in space.
There is also the problem of aerodynamics in the movies. All of the spacecraft shown have aerodynamic surfaces with wings and fins. This would only be useful for planetary flight, not space flight. They could just build a cube, equip it with modern guns and missiles, put mirrors all over it, and the only thing that would be visible would be the engines. This is the next leap of military technology.
