The Executor-class Star Dreadnought was a class of large command ships of the Galactic Empire.
History[]
There were thirteen Super Star Destroyers created by the Empire. These vessels were much larger than the normal Star Destroyer classes, as well as the Imperial battlecruiser Pride of Tarlandia. The Sith Lord Darth Vader commanded one of these ships - The Executor. Other known Super Star Destroyers were the Annihilator, commanded by Grand General Cassio Tagge, the Ravager, commanded by Admiral Rae Sloane, the Eclipse, Emperor Palpatine's command ship, the Arbitrator, destroyed while attempting to flee the New Republic and a vessel that was captured by the New Republic over Kuat.
The Executor remained Vader's command ship from before the Battle of Hoth to the Battle of Endor, which saw the ship damaged by Rebel barrage and crashing into the surface of the Death Star II.
All known ships of this class were known to be gone in the aftermath of the Battle of Jakku. This battle saw the Ravager, at this point the last known Super Star Destroyer, crash upside-down on the desert surface of Jakku and be partially buried. The wreckage of the Ravager would be stripped of valuable technology by scavengers for decades to come.
Behind the Scenes[]
While two pages could be made for Super Star Destroyer and Executor-class Star Dreadnought, it can be assumed that all Super Star Destroyers are Executor-class until another is revealed.
