Imperial Shipyards Star Wars
And not just any ships: battleships, super battleships and 'civilian' big ships.From what I've read about the Star Wars Universe, given that it's science fiction, I never did understood how they could've build massive ships nor, I believe, read any preliminary explanations/details by authors.Also, seeing some images of the fictional shipyards, they don't look impressive enough to give the idea that they could build massive battle ships in short periods of time. I mean, look at Kuat Drive Yards: a big ring around a planet.
The Bilbringi shipyards were an Imperial depot, although they were open. Cronus' fleet, taking out two Victory-class Star Destroyers and driving the fleet away. Facility was loyal to the Alliance during the Galactic Civil War.
How many battleships, for the Republic or Galactic Empire, they could've build and how much time, as a whole for 'one round' of ships, would it take? It's hard to find a conclusive answer to this question, and obviously, the construction time varies widely depending on the class of ship we're talking about and the political and military situation in the galaxy at the time.:While conventional armaments were designed for most ships, the two Eclipse-class dreadnoughts had a superlaser as their primary weapon. The bulk of these two Super-class Star Destroyers was built around each ship's reactor and support systems, making them the most powerful conventional warships in history, and causing the design to attract unwanted attention from criminal third parties.Their construction took over a decade, with the Emperor's downfall leading to delays and shifts in logistics. They were estimated to be powerful enough to allow whoever controlled them a real chance at taking power in the galaxy. This also made them high-profile targets by both the Rebel Alliance, and later, the New Republic. As a symbol of its status, the Eclipse was escorted by smaller Super Star Destroyers during the Battle of Pinnacle Base.:Emperor Palpatine authorized the construction of the first four Executor-class ships even before the Battle of Yavin (0 BBY), but it still had to be slipped past the watchful eyes of various oversight committees in the Imperial Senate; to the very last, the minority of Senators who opposed Palpatine and his policies used the few political tools they had left to hinder him, and one of these was budget oversight. To conceal the particulars of the vessel from the opposition, the Navy listed the new ship as a 'Super-class Star Destroyer' in budget reports submitted to the Senate, and understated its true length (19,000 meters) by many kilometers.The first of the class, the Executor, began construction in the years preceding the Battle of Yavin.
The unfinished vessel was used as a headquarters for Darth Vader and his secret apprentice, Galen Marek. With the sudden and unanticipated destruction of the Death Star at Yavin, Wessex's production schedule changed completely. At the urging of Darth Vader, the Emperor ordered her to rush the new line into production as quickly as possible, to compensate for the loss of the battle station. As certain segments of naval command may have anticipated, a new symbol of intimidation was needed, and as Wessex had believed, the Executor-class fit the need well.The first two Executor-class ships were now being built simultaneously, with the Lusankya at Kuat Drive Yards and the Executor moved to the Fondor Shipyards. Darth Vader received the finished Executor at Fondor about half a year after the fiasco at Yavin.

The second ship, then known as the Executor II, was completed shortly afterwards at Kuat, received its new name, and was hidden on Coruscant.The Executor went on to become the most feared and famous of its class by virtue of its status as Darth Vader's command ship. Because of the Executor's stance as the lead ship of Darth Vader's fleet, Death Squadron, Death Squadron's fleet insignia also bore the image of an Executor-class Star Dreadnought. In addition, four Executor-class Star Dreadnoughts, including the Executor itself, were known to have been in service to the Empire by the time of the Battle of Hoth in 3 ABY. However, the vessel was destroyed at the Battle of Endor in 4 ABY, after an A-wing starfighter rammed through its bridge and it subsequently crashed into the Death Star II. Darth Vader's personal flagship, the:Construction on the Executor began under complete secrecy in the secluded Scarl system, where Vader raised and trained Galen Marek 1, his secret dark side apprentice, in a failed plan to overthrow Emperor Palpatine as galactic ruler.
By 0 ABY, the Executor was transferred to the Starship Yards of Fondor for the final stages of construction, under the overall direction of Admiral Amise Griff. At Fondor, the Executor became the failed target of internal sabotage by a group of traitorous Imperial admirals, who hoped to destroy Vader's project to prevent their own decline in power. Once completed, the Executor made for Yavin 4, site of the Rebel Alliance base. Vader hoped to crush the Rebellion once and for all with his new weapon, but the Executor failed to stop the Rebel evacuation from Yavin, and Griff died in the process.1 Galen's training began some time after his father's death in 18 BBY, and ended in 3 BBY:Vader abducted the younger Marek shortly after he killed the boy's father and a squad of stormtroopers in order to keep Galen's existence a secret. Despite his outward loyalty to Palpatine, Vader harbored much hatred toward his Sith Master and intended to overthrow him with Marek as his secret apprentice.When engaging Vader in a sparring match in 3 BBY, Starkiller expected it to be business as usual afterward. However at the end of it, Vader ordered Starkiller to kneel before him.
Believing that his time had come to an end, Starkiller obeyed and waited for death. Ultimate mortal kombat trilogy apk. Instead, Darth Vader formally 'knighted' Starkiller, officially recognizing him for the first time as his apprentice, something that Starkiller always believed himself to be. He declared Starkiller's training complete.that most of his training took place aboard the Executor:Ensconced onboard Vader's incomplete flagship, the Executor, and given the codename 'Starkiller', the apprentice repressed all the memories of his previous life and spent the next two decades training as a Sith under Darth Vader's supervision, with the ultimate goal of standing at Vader's side against Palpatine.The Executor was commissioned in 0.5 ABY and 2.5 ABY. It was destroyed in 4 ABY. Thus, the construction of the Executor must have taken nearly 20 years:The concept for the Death Star could be found in its precursor, the 'Expeditionary Battle Planetoid'.
The concept came about in 29 BBY, around the time of the Second Battle of Zonama Sekot, and the man who came up with the idea for it was Raith Sienar. Sienar made concept designs of the Battle Planetoid, it had a main sphere and two smaller spheres, the smaller spheres were connected to the main sphere by poles, it used massive turbolasers and was powered by an internal plasma implosion core more than a kilometer wide. Unlike its Death Star descendant it lacked a Superlaser, as it was designed for space combat.Raith showed the designs to the commander of the Republic Outland Regions Security Force, Wilhuff Tarkin. Tarkin was interested in the concept, he later betrayed Sienar when he showed the concept to Supreme Chancellor Palpatine and claimed that he invented it. Sienar was unperturbed, however, as he had already lost interest in the design.The initial technical design of the Death Star, known at the time as the 'Ultimate Weapon', was created by the Geonosian Industries and called for a spheroid battle station capable of destroying Galactic Republic forces and planets under their control.In 22 BBY, Poggle the Lesser, leader of the Geonosians, returned the top-secret design to Count Dooku to prevent it from falling into the hands of the Jedi during the Battle of Geonosis.
Dooku took the designs back to Coruscant and gave them to Darth Sidious, his dark master. These plans would later be fused with Wilhuff Tarkin and Raith Sienar's vision of an Expeditionary Battle Planetoid.During the Clone Wars, Sidious ordered Geonosian builders to begin construction on the station over their own homeworld. Hundreds of thousands of workers were busy building the station throughout the war. Around five months after the Battle of Geonosis, Dooku briefly considered halting production of the Weapon in favor of the Planet Killer, but changed his mind after the demonstration failed, thanks to sabotage by Mace Windu. 17 months after the start of the war, Geonosian technicians on Zaadja were observed working on the Weapon's design.In 19 BBY, Supreme Chancellor Palpatine sent the 501st Legion on a mission to Mygeeto where they were to collect an energy sample that would be used in the station's superlaser of the soon to be formed Galactic Empire.
During the last few weeks of the war, the Separatist Council debated on ways to prolong the war, to allow their secret weapon time to be finished.Following the deaths of all the members of the Separatist Council, and the end of the Clone Wars in 19 BBY, a majority of the Separatist holdings were turned over to the newly established Galactic Empire, including the unfinished battlestation. Construction was renewed under Imperial supervision and moved to Despayre in order to secure Palpatine's newly-formed absolute power.Obviously, the Death Star I was completed by 0 BBY, and destroyed shortly thereafter. From concept to completion, the development of the Death Star I took 29 years, with at least 19 years of actual construction work.:The idea for the second Death Star's development originated as one of two possible scenarios by Bevel Lemelisk and the Imperial Department of Military Research for further development of the Death Star's development, shortly after the completion of the first Death Star.
The second Death Star's construction started during the Battle of Yavin, when Emperor Palpatine ordered the construction of new superlasers, to which the resources for its construction, including Hyperspace tugs and treadships, would be sent from their origin near Sullust to Endor via the Silvestri Trace, an obscure hyperspace route. Ironically, he issued this order shortly before the first Death Star's destruction at the hands of Luke Skywalker.The Death Star II was destroyed in the, in 4 ABY.
From the start of construction to the battle station's destruction - at which time the Death Star II was still incomplete - 4 years passed. The:The Millennium Falcon, originally known as YT-1300 492727ZED, was a modified YT-1300 light freighter with a storied history stretching back to the decades before the Clone Wars and the rise of the Galactic Empire. Manufactured by the Corellian Engineering Corporation in 60 BBY, the light freighter was first owned by Corell Industries Limited and underwent several name changes before being bought by the smugglers Kal and Dova Brigger in 48 BBY, and the ship eventually ended up as the property of the secretive Republic Group under the name Stellar Envoy by 29 BBY.The YT-1300 light freighter designated unit YT 492727ZED was built in 60 BBY by the Corellian Engineering Corporation at Orbital Assembly Facility 7. While still on the assembly line, an accident with a fuel droid sent the freighter rocketing out of control, and the ship almost destroyed the entire assembly line before several workers were able to regain control of the vessel. The ship remained in stock state for several years, and it was first owned by the Corell Industries Limited shipping firm, who possessed the ship for twelve years and utilized it as a shipping vessel in the Corellian system.Aside from later modifications, the Millennium Falcon appears to have been constructed in less than a year. As a supplement to Wad Cheber's answer, if you want to go into it in more depth, there is a technical resource for calculating how long it took to build ships in-universe which be found or if you prefer the direct link to download the PDF. Read Chapter 1 and 3 and then consult the ship data later on at the end, the larger ships are found at page 89 and after.
It is from the Star Wars Role-playing Game, the publisher WOTC released a book called the Starships of the Galaxy. In the first edition (linked), in Chapter 3, they go into how long it would take to build a certain ship depending on the size of the shipyard and the resources that could put into it, and there is a mechanism to calculate that.
I did a few superficial calculations and they match up with the Wookieepedia entries, though remember that these are only the theoretical construction times based on ideal scenarios, whereas real-world and plot-induced variations would be a part of it. And remember, there were 73 weeks in the Galactic Standard Calendar.
There were at least several tens of thousands of star destroyers in the Imperial Starfleet. A complete listing is therefore impossible. I do not pretend that this list even approaches comprehensive status; there are far too many references for any writer to pursue. I will expand the list gradually after dealing with more substantial and quantitative topics.
This list should be read cautiously; the total number of star destroyers built exceeds the range of possible names for the ships. The Empire must have exercised a system for the use and reuse of names on more than one vessel. It is possible that what appear to be references to one ship are in fact coincidental descriptions of different destroyers sharing a single name. For instance, several ships of different classes have used the name Vengeance, and not all of them were Imperator-class destroyers. There has also been more than one Iron Fist. In these cases, successive commanders have kept the name when they moved to newer vessels upon promotion.
One possibility is that the ships are named uniquely by using the same conceptual name in different languages. In this way one Invincible might be named in an ethnic language of Kuat, while another Invincible is named in an ancient Taung language from Coruscant. Each of the millions of galactic languages could be used to name all ships uniquely, and yet in novels the names would appear the same because of the implicit translation into English (or other terrestrial languages).
It is possible that only the ships with the most distinguished records or influential commanders are honoured with a full name. Other vessels, such as the numerous Victory-class destroyers in Darksaber, may be labelled only by an alphanumeric registration code. It is possible that most common ships leave the construction yards with nothing more than a hull designation of class and number, and the most meritous vessels earn a proper name.
- Accuser
Star destroyer in Lord Vader's squadron during the Battle of Hoth; Admiral Piett transferred flag here after the Bespin incident when Vader returned to Coruscant aboard Executor. This ship was also present at the Battle of Endor, captured by the Rebel Alliance and renamed Emancipator. Participated in first and second battles of Borleias under Admiral Ragab. Saw action under Generals Calrissian and Antilles at the Battle of Calamari six years after Endor, destroying the Imperial flagship Allegiance before being consumed by Silencer-7.

[X-Wing Y-wing historical mission 3] Avenger was involved in more than 436 planetary suppressions since it was comissioned, and served under 8 different captains in a period of 2 years [STAR WARS Sourcebook, one year after ANH]. One captain was Ferdas [Imperial Sourcebook p.131]. Part of the Emperor's Death Squadron and commanded by Captain Needa during the events surrounding the Battle of Hoth. Avenger belongs to the ISD-II star destroyer subclass. A ship with the same name served as flagship for Executor Sedriss and his Dark Jedi in their abortive subjugation of Balmorra, six years after the Battle of Endor. - Badi Dea
[X-Wing Tour of Duty IV, Operations 10,13] - Basilisk
Commanded by Captain Mullinore, as part of Admiral Daala's force assigned to the defence of the secret facilities within the Maw Cluster. This ship of the ISD-I subclass was lost while preparing for a suicide attack on Coruscant. It was vaporised in a nearby supernova explosion induced by the stolen Sun Crusher device which was under the control of a young Sith initiate allied with the New Republic. - Bellicose
Destroyer under the commmand of Captain Aban during Grand Admiral Thrawn's campaign of harassment against the New Republic. Led a battle at Tanaab under the coordination of Jedi Master Joruus C'baoth, who impelled the crew to destroy one New Republic ship beyond the scope of his orders, incurring Aban's anger. - Chimaera

'Captain' Kuuztin's flagship, operating as part of Grand Admiral Thrawn's task force in the hunt for Zaarin. The Courageous and her starfighter and transport forces captured a neutral convoy bearing supplies for former admiral Zaarin in the Semag system, and also destroyed a traitor Modified Nebulon-B Frigate, the Strident, sent to escort it. She was ambushed in an ill-conceived operation to attack a traitor supply depot and attack squadron in the Gwar system. Though the Courageous was destroyed, the destroyer's starfighters destroyed Zaarin's Interdictor Cruiser Bomb, her escorting Modified Frigate squadron Kuma, and a major supply depot under Zaarin's control. [TIE Fighter, Battle 11, Missions 1 and 2] - Crynyd
Named after Arvel Crynyd, the A-wing pilot who rammed himself into the Executor's bridge at the battle of Endor, this [New Republic] star destroyer took part in the campaign against Zsinj. It took partin the battles of Vahaba and Selaggis. At Vahaba, it was assigned to protect the Interdictor Stellar Web. - Death's Head
Commanded by Captain Harbid as part of Grand Admiral Thrawn's fleet during the events surrounding the Battle of Sluis Van, etc. - Devastator
Personal flagship of Lord Tion during his Battle of Ralltiir, and subsequently Lord Darth Vader's flagship prior to the construction of the first Executor-class command ship. It was that Devastator that intercepted and captured the blockade runner Tantive IV, precipitating the events leading up to the fateful Battle of Yavin. Included in Lord Vader's squadron and participated in the Battle of Hoth. Destroyed at the Battle of Endor [STAR WARS The Essential Chronology p.61.] Devastator was of the ISD-I subclass. - Direption
ISD-II, a ship in Warlord Admiral Krennel's fleet. It was captured in the battle for Linade III where it was outnumbered against the New Republic Destroyers Freedom, Moonshadow (both ISD-II) & Swift Liberty (Victory-II class). [X-wing: Isard's Revenge] - Emancipator

Imperial star destroyer of unknown designation, under the scar-faced Captain Dalton at the time of Alderaan's destruction. - Entor
Star destroyer damaged during the subjugation and capture of a large space slug specimen for study by Imperial biologists, shortly after the Battle of Hoth. The slug is reported to have bitten and digested a noticeable portion of the ship. Depending on the number of star destroyers from outside Vader's taskforce joining the asteroid search, Entor could also be the one which had its bridge tower wrecked by an asteroid strike. - Eviscerator
ISD-II. [X-Wing: Rogue Squardon, p.286] - Freedom
[See Avarice.] - Firestorm
Star destroyer in the fleet of Supreme Warlord Harrsk approximately eight years after the Battle of Endor. Harrsk was one of the thirteen most powerful rogue warlords feuding in the Deep Core at that time.

Flagship of Vice-Admiral Pellaeon in a subsequent attack on Luke Skywalker's Jedi training compound on Yavin IV. - Gauntlet
Captain Lin Nunsk, escorts bacta convoys in Shapani Bypass [Lords of the Expance] - Garrett
Flagship of Lord Darth Vader immediately prior to the Battle of Endor; involved in operations in Bothan Space to deceive the rebels in relation to the status of the second Death Star. [TIE Fighter game] - Glory
Flagship of the traitor Admiral Zaarin. - Gnisnal
Belonging to the ISD-I subclass, this destroyer was believed to have exploded during Imperial evacuations of Narth and Ihopek. Its wreckage was found roughly ten years later, containing what seemed to be an intact and complete Imperial Order of Battle database. This discovery, made shortly before the cirsis in the Koornacht Cluster, suggests that the destroyer had been the flagship of a very important Imperial official. Gnisnal was catalogued with a registry number SD-489 by the New Republic. - Gorgon
Flagship of Admiral Daala's ISD-I-type star destroyer squadron at the weapons research facility in the black hole Maw Cluster. It remained at this isolated station with no external communication for twelve years starting a year before the Battle of Yavin. Upon receiving the astonishing and unwelcome news of the Empire's defeat by rebel forces, Daala engaged in a brief and costly terror campaign against the New Republic. The only surviving destroyer, Gorgon retreated to the enclaves of the Deep Core after recovering research and schematics from the Maw Installation. - Grey Wolf
Flagship of (then) Vice-Admiral Thrawn in his search for Grand Admiral Zaarin. [TIE Fighter game] - Hammer
Star destroyer operating in Mugaari space immediately after the Battle of Hoth. [TIE Fighter Battle 1, Mission 3] - Hydra
An ISD-I in a four-destroyer squadron defending Grand Moff Tarkin's secret Maw Installation weapons research facilities, in Admiral Daala's command. The original captain died in a turbolift accident and was replaced by the relatively young Captain Sten Thanas, native of Coruscant. Hydra was destroyed twelve years after the start of its mission. Escaped New Republic prisoners hijacked and rammed the Sun Crusher superweapon into the destroyer's command module and the warship drifted to oblivion in one of the neighbouring black holes. - Inflexible
Host of a TIE training school where Flight Leader T. Alvak was transfered and attended class [STAR WARS Sourcebook p.24]. - Intrepid
A star destroyer scouting an area of space near the Cron Drift. Was destroyed by X- and Y-wings shortly before A New Hope [X-Wing Tour of Duty #2, Operations #1-10]. - Immortal
This destroyer and its fighters ambushed the Tantive IV en route to Alderaan with the Death Star plans [X-Wing Tour of Duty #2, Operation #12]. It later led several attacks on Rebel freighters and cruisers just before the destruction of the Death Star [X-Wing Tour of Duty #3, Operations #1-11]. - Imperator
The first ship of this class, constructed at the KDY shipyards at Gyndine. A ship with this name followed Admiral Zaarin in his coup attempt; defeated by Thrawn's forces. (Was this the original Imperator, or a ship with a recycled name?) Imperator was also one of the destroyers recognising the authority of Imperial Intelligence Director Ysanne Isard at the time of Coruscant's fall to the New Republic, though it was absent from the capital planet's defence. This venerable ship was a formidable reputation. Its loss to the New Republic would have great symbolic importance. - Inexorable
It isn't clear whether this should be an Imperator-class ship or another destroyer design. Inexorable was under the command of Grand Admiral Thrawn in the Unknown Regions about two and a half years after the Battle of Endor. Considering Thrawn's status, his original fleet may have included many cruisers and battlecruisers in addition to mere destroyers. - Interrogator
Flagship for High Inquisitor Tremayne, commanded by the ill-fated Captain Jovan Vharing at some time after the Battle of Hoth. Known to be a ship of ISD-II type. - Invincible
The destroyer which brought Dark Jedi Zasm Katth and Baddon Fass to Nar Shaddaa during the events when an unstable clone of Emperor Palpatine regained command of remnant naval and military forces, six and a half years after the Battle of Endor. Destroyed while in pursuit of the Millennium Falcon. - Judicator
Commanded by Captain Brandei, in Grand Admrial Thrawn's fleet during his campaign against the New Republic. Assaulted Lando Calrissian's operations in the Athega system. Fought New Republic star frigate Quenfis at the resting site of the Katana fleet. - Kreiger
Part of Admiral Gaen Drommel's renegade fleet two years after the Battle of Endor. Commanded by Captain Dor Reder. Bridge interior imagery suggests that this vessel is either ISD-II or newer. - Leonides

A destroyer (presumed to be Imperator-class) in the Tapani Sector starfleet, assigned to planet Procopia. [Lords of the Expanse] - Peremptory
Star destroyer with Grand Admiral Thrawn's fleet, destroyed in collision with a dreadnought of the Katana fleet in battle with New Republic and fringe starfighters at the deep space resting place of the Dark Force. - Predator
Intended to receive prisoners of war from Kessel, who were instead rescued by rebel fighters. [X-Wing Y-wing historical mission 4] - Pulsar
One of the destroyers stationed at Endor during the construction of the Death Star II. Surrendered to the rebels after Battle of Endor. A junior officer, Dor Render, led Imperial escapees and stole rebel astrogation data locating many secret Alliance bases, which were subsequently obliterated in surprise retaliatory Imperial raids. - Punisher
A destroyer involved in the capture of a rebel escort carrier. [TIE Fighter TIE Defender Mission 4] - Rage
[From Balance of Power.] - Rebel Dream
Princess Leia's flagship in The Courtship of Princess Leia. It may actually have been a larger class of warship, since the Millennium Falcon was apparently able to fit into one of its hangars, whereas a narrower Lambda-class shuttle is a snug fit for the Imperator's class of star destroyer. - Reckoning
A destroyer running missions for Ysanne Isard prior to her coup against Sate Pestage. [X-Wing Rogue Squadron #29] Presumed to be Imperator-class, but the rough illustrations seen to date could alternatively represent a different, smaller KDY design. There may be only one trench notch on each side of the ship. - Red Gauntlet
Captured at the Battle of Vahaba. - Redoubtable
Early Imperator-class destroyer believed to be with part of the Black Sword Fleet [Shield of Lies p.323]. - Relentless
Under Captain Parlan when he commissioned a manhunt for Old Republic military hero Adar Talon shortly after the Battle of Yavin. Subsequently commanded by Captain Westen. Commanded by Captain Dorja as part of Grand Admiral Thrawn's fleet five years after Palpatine's fall; fought two of Garm Bel Iblis' dreadnoughts at New Cov. - Reliance
Stationed at the Walker Operations & Tactics training facility on Jardeen IV during the Battle of Endor. Left Jardeen IV after that event, and specialised in walker and bomber assaults against the New Republic for at least two years under Captain Iolan Gendarr. - Render
protected the TIE Avenger factory ZA-13 following its recapture from Zaarin. [TIE Fighter, Battle 8, Mission 3] - Resolution
Operated as part of Thrawn's task force assigned to destroy Zaarin, she operated (with Grey Wolf) in a failed attempt to trap Zaarin, using a convoy carrying Missile Boats as bait. Previous traitor attacks that delayed the Interdictor Whirlwind caused Thrawn's plans to miscarry, though the Missile Boats were saved and Zaarin driven off. [TIE Fighter, Battle 11, Mission 5] - Retribution
Operating with the Qeimet Fleet, in a strategic rimward sector near the Hook Nebula, this destroyer is home to the famous Scimitar Assault Wing, an elite and distinctive TIE bomber force. - Reyna
A destroyer (presumed to be Imperator-class) in the Tapani Sector starfleet, assigned to planet Mrlsst, controls routes in and out of Tapani sector. [Lords of the Expanse] - Riesa
A destroyer (presumed to be Imperator-class) in the Tapani Sector starfleet, assigned to planet Tallaan, defend Imperial shipyards. [Lords of the Expanse] - Skyhook
Saw the same action against Zsinj as Crynyd. - Stalker
Suppressed an uprising on Valera under the command of navy traditionalist and disciplinarian Captain Akal Zed. After unacceptable loss of support craft at Valera the destroyer was assigned to patrol Elrood Sector in the Outer Rim Territories until the Battle of Hoth. The probe droid which discovered the Hoth rebel base was one of Stalker's. Returned to Elrood sector to defend the stronghold system of Derilyn during the early years of the New Republic's growth. Sources conflict regarding Stalker's categorisation, but it seems most likely to be ISD-II. - Steadfast
Destroyer in the warlord forces of Carnor Jax, bombarded Phaeda and fought Rogue Squadron several months after the demise of the last mad Palpatine clone. Under the captainship of Commander Vivant. - Stormhawk
Destroyer in the fleet of Grand Admiral Thrawn, which saw significant action towards the end of his campaign against the New Republic. Presumed to be some kind of ISD; subclass unknown. - Thunderflare
Star destroyer on which Captain Khurgee served before his promotion and transfer to hangar operations aboard the first Death Star. Under the diplomatic but willful and devious Captain Tanda Pryl in the remote Elrood sector between the Battles of Yavin and Hoth. (Whether her aspirations to admiralty were ever fulfilled is unknown.) Thunderflare was in the same sector, rejoined by Stalker, during the period of contention between New Republic and the remnants of Palpatine's Empire. Thunderflare belongs to the ISD-I subclass. Mention of this ship in the SWCCG Second Anthology suggests that it was at either Tatooine or Endor. - Thunderer
She, along with ISD Imperator, comprised the traitor force under Admiral Zaarin that ambushed ISD Courageous in the Gwar system, though Thunderer herself was destroyed by rocket attacks and laser/turbolaser fire from Courageous and her starfighters. [TIE Fighter, Battle 11, Mission 2] - Tiger
Name of Predator according to X-Wing The Official Strategy Guide. - Tormentor
Successfully defended itself from Rebel fighter attack in Balance of Power. - Triumph
One of two destroyers defending the galactic capital against the forces of Admiral Ackbar at the Battle of Coruscant. Little else outstanding regarding its reputation and crew. Took severe damage, including to the bridge and a critical loss of power. Tractored into stable orbit for salvage and eventual repair. - Tyrant
Member of Emperor's Death Squadron and temporarily disabled by ion cannon barrage at the Battle of Hoth. Commanded by Captain Lennox. An ISD-I vessel, like the Devastator. - Ultima
One of three star destroyers stationed near the remains of Alderaan in the hope of capturing Princess Leia Organa during any pilgrimage made by the Princess to the ruins of her homeworld. Sub-class ISD-I. - Vanguard
A one-time escort of Majestic, commanded by (then) Vice-Admiral Thrawn. [TIE Fighter game.] - Vendetta
Destroyer of unknown class and sub-class (possibly an ISD) patrolling the Inner Rim. The ship's communications officer Lt Ander Rendrake is a spy for the Rebel Alliance. - Vengeance
Involved in attack on a rebel base at Datar, under Vice-Admiral Slenn. Slenn failed to acquire live rebel prisoners, and he himself seems to have perished in connection with that circumstance. Later launched a similar raid on a rebel hideout on the moon Nar Shadaa in Hutt Space, under the supervision of Lord Darth Vader, before the events surround the Battle of Yavin. Commanded by Captain Thrawn prior to Battle of Hoth [Galaxy of Fear]; after Hoth was the ship to which Maarek Stele's TIE squadron was assigned [The Stele Chronicles]. - Virulence
Present at the Battle of Endor, under Captain Joak Drysso. Destroyer loyal to Imperial Intelligence Director Ysanne Isard in her seizure of Thyferra approximately three years after the Battle of Endor. Eventually renamed Errant Venture. - Warrior
Received freighter transfer of war materiel and Mon Calamari slaves at a secret rendezvous, but was thwarted by rebel fighters led by Halley Kadorto. [X-Wing X-wing historical mission 5] - Whirlwind
Star destroyer in the fleet of Supreme Warlord Harrsk. Harrsk was one of the thirteen most powerful rogue warlords feuding in the Deep Core eight years after the Battle of Endor. During a retaliatory attack upon High Admiral Teradoc's base, Whirlwind was incapacitated and held to ransom by Admiral Daala's Firestorm, as Daala demanded an end to the warlords' hostilities. - Wolf's Claw
Raided rebel bases using intelligence supplied by Dor Reder following the Battle of Endor. One of three ISDs in Admiral Drommel's fleet at the Battle of Tantive V. Captured in that conflict and incorporated into New Republic fleet; the other two star destroyers were destroyed and Drommel's great flagship, the Guardian, escaped.
