Victory-class Star Destroyer

The Victory-class Star Destroyer was a line of Star Destroyer used by both the Republic Navy and Imperial Navy. One ship of the line was the Victory II-class Star Destroyer. The Victory-class was capable of deploying a garrison base and making surface landings, and boasted seven sublight engines. The ship could be used to provide security for convoys, to transport cargo, and to accompany other vessels.

Originally used by the Galactic Republic, the Victory-class continued into the service of the Galactic Empire from 19 BBY, with one such Imperial craft being the Harrow. In 14 BBY, several Victories were utilized by the Empire, including some based at Coruscant's Imperial Palace and Belderone's R/M Facility Four deepdock. During the Galactic Civil War, at least five Victory-class Star Destroyers served with the Dark Lord of the Sith Darth Vader at some point following the Battle of Yavin.
