This article is a stub about a ship or starship. Roughly thirty years after the Battle of Endor, the new Resurgent-class Star Destroyers were constructed to replace the aging Imperial-class by the Empire's successor state, the First Order, and would borrow design philosophies from the highly respected and coveted ship. In a report to an admiral, Senior Commander Alecia Beck referred to the ISD Vehement. The distinctive profile of the Imperial-class instilled fear into the soldiers of rebellious factions, and the name of a Star Destroyer could be preceded by the ship prefix ISD (standing for Imperial Star Destroyer). Īt the height of its power, the Empire operated over 25,000 Star Destroyers. The Imperial- Star Destroyer replaced the smaller Venator-class used by the Galactic Republic during the Clone Wars and was generally the Galactic Empire's star cruiser of choice. " With shipyards turning out Imperial -class Star Destroyers, any revolt will be hard pressed to make so much as a dent in the Emperor's armor." ― Artoz
