"Mmmm, the Imperial Star Destroyer I is the combination between a carrier, battleship, and troop transport... makes you wonder why their are still people out there who think they can challenge the Galactic Empire and the Imperial Navy." -Serena Moon

Overview

The Imperial Star Destroyer I are the mainstay capital ship of the Imperial Navy. As ships have evolved throughout the galaxy one consistency has become more and more prevalent. That factor is the immense size of the current battleships. Over the last generation, warships have become much larger, and far more advanced. The Imperial line of Star Destroyers has become the gold standard by which all other large warships are judged. With eighty turbolaser batteries, and sixty ion batteries, there are few ships who would successfully oppose her. The dagger shaped hull is one design detail that was carried over from earlier generations. The vast experience of the Emperor’s ship design staff has made her one of the best all-around fighting vessel currently in existence.

She currently stands as at the pinnacle of Imperial starship evolution. The Imp-Star boasts the most modern targeting, sensors, armaments, and docking bays in the entire Imperial fleet. The Imperial High Command spared no expense in the creation of this design, and because of that dedication to this particular project the Imperial Star Destroyer maintains its position as a very capable threat. This ship was designed from the ground up to be able to handle almost any situation. Anything from large ship-to-ship battles, ground assaults, planetary siege, blockades, and deep sector patrols, are all on the Imperial Destroyer's rather long list of accomplishments. The Imperial Star Destroyer has brought both peace and prosperity to our galaxy, and its continued reign is expected to continue for many years to come.
