This flaw was rectified in the limited Victory II-class, produced shortly after the advent of the Empire. The Victory I-class Star Destroyer's biggest disadvantage was its LF9 ion engines, which could not produce sufficient acceleration to pursue newer and faster ships, allowing them to escape ship-to-ship combat. They were equipped with 10 quad turbolaser batteries, 40 double turbolaser batteries, 80 concussion missiles, and 10 tractor beam projectors.Ī single Victory I-class Star Destroyer required 4,798 crew members and 402 gunners for optimal operation and could transport up to 2,040 troops, 8,100 metric tons of cargo, several ground vehicles like the AT-AT, and two squadrons of starfighters. Victory I-class Star Destroyers were 900 meters long, making them some of the largest capital ships capable of atmospheric operations.ĭespite being several decades old, the shields and hull armor of Victory I-class ships were still quite heavy compared to the other vessels used during the Galactic Civil War.
