Description
The Imperial Star Destroyer squadron assigned to Darth Vader after the Battle of Yavin was code-named the Imperial Death Squadron. First under the command of Admiral Griff,
and later Admiral Ozzel, and later still, Admiral Piett, the Squadron consists of Vader's Super-class Star Destroyer and a mix of five Imperial I and II Star Destroyers.
The Executor was the first of four Super-class Star Destroyers. At over eight kilometers in length, the Executor was capable of winning engagements without firing a single shot. Not that it didn't have adequate firepower to back up its impressive size. Over 1,000 weapons batteries are capable of reducing any planetary surface to slag.
The only other remaining Star Destroyers whose provenance is unclassified are the Avenger and the Devastator. The first, Captain Needa's vessel, has a proud history of over 436 planetary suppression's since commissioned, its last being Dankayo. Strangely, it has served under eight different captains in the last few years.
The Devastator was Lord Vader's personal flagship until the Battle of Yavin. The Devastator is noteworthy for having captured the Tantive IV, Princess Leia Organa's consular ship, over Tatooine. Before that, it was Lord Tion's flagship that saw heavy action in the subjugation of Ralltiir. After the Battle of Yavin, Vader transferred his flag to the Executor.
