How many starships/battleships has Captain Zapp Brannigan lost that were under his direct control, throughout the course of Futurama's seasons and films?

1In fact that 42 is the Answer Tor everything, i would say he lost 42 Ships so far. – user7387 Jun 28 '12 at 20:25

6He hasn't lost any ships, he knows exactly where each of them crashed. – user7397 Jun 28 '12 at 21:09

i'd rather ask how many ships he has not lost – user7400 Jun 28 '12 at 21:22

1I think that the correct answer is "all of them". – trutheality Jun 29 '12 at 16:52

If we count a "loss" as every time a ship is seriously damaged or destroyed (meaning that a repaired ship can count more than once) then I count 8 losses:
The Nimbus, the intergalactic flagship of the DOOP fleet, was seriously damaged or destroyed a total of 5 times:
It was cut in half during the Decapodian invasion in "A Taste of Freedom".
It was shot down by the remote-controlled solid gold Death Stars during the Battle for Earth in Bender's Big Score.
It was sliced in two while chasing the Feministas through Leo Wong's "miniature" golf course in Into the Wild Green Yonder.
It crashed into the already-crashed Planet Express ship in "Rebirth".
It crashed into the ground in "Fun on a Bun" during the battle with the Neanderthals.
The Titanic, which was swallowed by a black hole in "A Flight to Remember".
The restaurant Le Palm d'Orbit, which crashed into the planet Amazonia in "Amazon Women in the Mood". "She's built like a steak house, but she handles like a Bistro."
The Tiny One-man Stealth Fighter, which crashed on Lo'ihi Island when attempting to destroy the mighty V-GINY in "In-A-Gadda-Da-Leela".
In addition, you could count the stone Martian ship from "A Farewell to Arms" seeing as how Zapp had it purposefully dismantled, but that was after he successfully piloted and landed it on Mars.

Leela was piloting the 'The Tiny One-man Stealth Fighter'. Zap was just a back-seat (speaking metaphorically), though very front seat (literally), passenger. – Andrew Thompson Jun 13 '14 at 6:11

Not to mention an uncountable number of ships lost that were not piloted by him, but under his command, especially during the first invasion of the Omicronians. – Zibbobz Sep 22 '14 at 20:11
His personal ship, the Nimbus has been destroyed several times. Two examples that immediately come to mind are "A Taste of Freedom" where the Nimbus is chopped in half by a crab like ship, and again in the movie Into the Wild Green Yonder while traversing a giant miniature golf course.

In most appearances Nimbus was destroyed at the end. I believe that the number is with two digits, but I really wonder how much times exactly? But, I realize it could be difficult to find out, because I doubt that someone has counted that, and there is to much episodes to check it on quick. – Darko Kc Jun 28 '12 at 22:22
