Victory Mk I-class Star Destroyer | |
The Victory Mk I-class Star Destroyer was designed near the end of the Clone Wars, and these
ships formed the core of the Imperial Navy after the turbulent era. The concept of a
massive, highly destructive starship was first researched during the Clone Wars. When it
first went into service, it was considered the ultimate combat starship design until the
advent of the Imperator-class Star Destroyer. As more ISDs were built, Victory Star
Destroyers were being reassigned to planetary defence or moved to reserve fleets deep in the
Galactic Core. These ships proved to be an important part of the Imperial Navy even though
they are over three decades old. Few VSDs still serve in the Imperial Navy. The Corporate
Sector Authority purchased 250 of these ships. VSD have more missile launchers than any
other ship for its size. A single full volley could devastate even a heavy cruiser like an
ISD, if hit. But improved point defences and EW on more modern ships means this is unlikely
to say the least. It is one of the largest warships that can land on a planet and operate at
any atmospheric altitude.Member Availability:
