Imperial Star Destroyer Types Explained | Star Wars Legends Lore

[@ericlanglois9194]

I believe the actual difference between Imperial I and Imperial II Star Destroyers was that the model for the Imperial Star Destroyer from A New Hope was accidentally destroyed after the movie so they had to build a whole new model for Empire Strikes Back and it ended up with some slight differences. Not sure of the validity of this information though.

[@MellowCorn-xs8bn]

Eric Langlois No, with the expanded budget for the Empire Strikes Back they built a new 8 foot (imperial 2) model. The 3 foot (imperial 1) was still used as background/forced perspective ships and can be seen at 3:01 and 3:20.

[@XochiCh]

This, this is what explains 99% of "mistakes", or slight changes in movies... Many Lore-nerd: "Why this character had this on a different color, and this that way, and that on the wrong side, it must have a lor reason!" Me: "The studio fucked up, end of story."

[@chrissonofpear3657]

Both models appeared in Empire Strikes back, and maybe in Jedi too. The Imperial 1 was 91 cm by 59 cm, and the Imperial 2 was 259 cm by 144 cm.

[@stardude2006]

Eric Langlois A trainee modelmaker at ILM accidentally spilled his double frappacino on it one day and stained the upper hull It leaked into the fibre optics and the whole model was ruined They had to replace the upper section but abandoned that idea when Lucas saw it and went berserk He ordered a New giant pizza slice floaty ship to be constructed

If this is true, it would make sense symbolically for both of Vader's flagships to immediately face destruction in the scene right after Vader himself is destroyed by Anakin.

[@LordDarthHarry]

Actually there is another way to tell Imperial 1 and 2s apart visualy. The Heavy Turbolaser turrets mounted in rows eside the superstructure are different. The Imperial 1 has dual turrets while the Imperial 2 has octuple turrets. Both types can be seen in Battlefornt 2 (2017) for example. Most the ISDs i nthat game have the octuple turrets, however Admiral Versio's flagship has the dual turrets.

[@LordDarthHarry]

In the last mission of the main campaign you can get a VERY close look at the guns on Admiral Versio's ISD.

[@MellowCorn-xs8bn]

Admiral Versio's ship actually switches between the two die to bad editing/continuity on EA's part.

[@LordDarthHarry]

Yeah i figured that might be the case. My gues is that in the fighter section it uses the same default ISD model as all the others.

[@slyguythreeonetwonine3172]

ISD1 has quad turrets.

[@TheCountryKing117]

As I believe Eck mentioned in a previous video, the ISD Imperator line is very versatile and could be fitted with an array of different equipment based on captain's preference or mission requirements. While most famously fitted with the highly destructive octuplet barbette turbilasers, some Imperators were also know to make excellent use of heavy ion cannon batteries instead, which is what I believe the dual turrets are, as seen in Rogue One.

[@flynnstone3133]

The Victory-class has a special place in my heart. I like how the wings add to the silhouette and how they are the plucky smaller cousin of the ISD. Now, I may be getting senile, but I remember a time when ISDs were not atmosphere-capable, meaning that Victories were the sole means of close surface carrier support, adding to their niche of the small, versatile star destroyer.

The thing at the top is not the "bridge." it's some kind of sensor array. The command bridge can be seen at 1:05, if you look closely. It sits in the center of the tower, as seen by its recognizable triangular windows. It's also seen in Return of the Jedi on the superstar destroyer.

[@Scoobydum900]

[@blakejohnson6362]

Not sure if this is official but another difference between the IDS I's and II's is that the II's main battery are made up of those 8-cannon turbolasers (Which you see in SWBF2 and the TIE Fighter short film that Eck always uses), while the I's just have 2 cannon turbolasers, which you can see pretty clearly in Rouge One.

[@dl5551]

Imperial II Star Destroyer was pretty poorly designed. While it was good at doing orbital bombardment and ship to ship combat, it was very fragile when forced to take starfighters. By my calculations, less turbolasers and more point-defence laser cannons, and a bit more carrying capacity would significantly increase its' potential against Rebel Alliance's fleet.

[@alexconrad2723]

Personally out of all the Star destroyers, the Venator class was the best and most robust. Those ships could take a hit, and compared to their imperial siblings, I’ve always found them to look far more sleep and industrial compared to the later models. Plus, it’s interesting that the Venator is the only mainline class we see with dual bridge configurations.

2 Harrower Dreadnaught vs Imperial Star Destroyer

[@mzlm1468]

Kenneth Kates three harrowers might be more fair

[@Domi-cv7oo]

Harrowers are like 3000+ years older than Imperial Star Destroyers, so I don't see how even 3 of them would win. Technology does actually advance in the universe and I assume shields/turbolasers and hull composition would be much more advanced for an imperial star destroyer. An imperial star destroyer is also twice as long as a Harrower.

[@mzlm1468]

The harrowers would have fighter superiority, combined firepower, so they could move into places that would split up the turbo laser fire for the imperial star destroyer

[@mzlm1468]

So long as the harrower could briefly survive taking some hits it could get in positions where only a few turbo lasers can hit. Remember 1 harrower has 36 turbo lasers so 3 would have greater firepower of a ISD

[@Domi-cv7oo]

You may be right, but like I said before, there hasn't really been any data regarding how turbolaser and shield technology advanced over those 3000 years. What if the imperial star destroyer's turbolasers were strong enough to breach and destroy a single Harrower class's shields and hull in a single barrage? And what if the harrower's turbolasers had but a miniscule effect on the star destroyer's shield?

[@TKnightcrawler]

There are other ways to tell the ISDI and ISDII apart. The turbolaser turret lines near the back have different turbolasers, the trenches have additional big guns on one of them, and the hangar has visible tractor beam projectors on one of them. However, I'm not sure which is which on anything but that first point.

The difference between the Victory I and II -class Star Destroyers is actually fairly significant and easy to recognize once you know what to look for. The Victory I had port and starboard concussion missile batteries inside "wings" that opened and closed like S-foils. The Victory II removed these missile batteries entirely, extending the hull in place of the wings and using the space for additional turbolaser and ion cannon power.

[@Hartzilla2007]

I would point out that Venator would also count as an Imperial Star Destroyer since the Empire still used those after forming.

[@admiralcrackbar8465]

Another difference that is hard to tell in most cases between ISD I AND ISD II, is the ISD I has quad turbolasers along the sides, the ISD II is has octuple turbolasers

[@oldtimefarmboy617]

As a decades long fan of Star Wars, my understanding is that the Mark1 star destroyer was 1 mile long and was designed mostly for patrol/police work and was used mostly for inta-solar system enforcement duties and to hunt down and capture smugglers and such. To maintain an imperial presence and to control space traffic and remind the populace that the empire was in control. These were the first class built and were built in great numbers because of the need to exert control after the empire took absolute control over the old republic. The Mark2 star destroyers were 2 miles long and were the first galaxy spanning front line battle ships with heavier weapons and a larger fighter contingent. They were designed to go toe-to-toe with with battleships kept by any system that maintained their own military ships and for planetary assault. If Mark 1 ships were in a combat group, they usually were at the fringes to make certain that smaller ships or damaged ships that managed to fight past the Mark 2 and up ships did not escape. I know they have changed things around over the years but that is what the original books said when describing these two classes of ships.

[@90lancaster]

I'm sure I saw somewhere that before Vader got his Tie X1 he used to operate an Eta Starfighter (in black and grey colouring) out of a repainted Venator class Star Destroyer. & I think they used to run V-wings out of them too in the early days of the Empire there must be a heck of a lot of Legacy Old Republic stuff that some of which as it was repaired and refitted would also get it's livery changed.. Heck the Venators are pretty darn good ships to keep anyway what with their ability to land and the ability to eject a cloud of Starfighters very quickly they make great pocket carriers - and isn't there versions with an idiotic number of heavy weapons in the bays instead of fighters. They seem just well "Useful" especially on the outer rim against Pirates and for general patrol tasks.. heck perhaps they are still around and doing just that - they are just not in the stories we see as that isn't their role. I like the idea of Imperial livery version of the Arc-170's still being in service too. But as I said they seem practical ships to keep using. ( Just don;t throw them at bigger things in a fleet battle that they'd be ill suited for against anything much heavier). Oh and when ever I watch these sort of videos i'm always shocked how lightly armed Imperial Star Destroyers are - they look big enough to have 200 guns on them not the tiny numbers they have especially the relative lack of point defence weapons is loony. Also close your hanger bays people - seriously - every idiot with a proton Torpedo is going to shoot at the open bays 1st.

[@RiseAngryPenguin]

Hey eck, always love the videos. So I got a dumb realization for you... When I was younger I always thought the term star destroyer was used because it sounded evil or something. It wasn't till I was almost 30 that it clicked that a destroyer is a class of warship, and of course they're star ships, sooo therefore star destroyer. It may seem obvious but I had just always been confused why the rebels and both republics would use something broadly classified as star destroyers

[@EckhartsLadder]

+chris johnson to be fair I think it's a bit of both

[@galvatream3246]

One feature you can use yo identify if a imperial star destroyer is class one or two, look at the weapon banks along side the part that sticks out. The imperial two clas has octuple barbatte turbolasers instead of ion cannons and turbolasers.

[@redtitan75]

Perhaps you could do a video about Star Destroyers used by other factions than the Empires and old republic? In Video games and mods like Thrawn revenge, the Victory class are my favourite star destroyers, very good at wolf pack tactics and with the victory one and two, it's basically the equivalent of choosing whether you want a Victory to have missile launchers or more turbolasers in the case of the victory two. Which give a good deal of flexibility and when paired with a Venator class for carrier duty, things get even more interesting.

ISD1 and ISD2 can always always ALWAYS be told apart by the superstructure. Even when the bridge tower is changed and the three main engines (ISD1s have three "vanes" on each thrust bell) are altered and the turbolasers are retrofitted, the superstructure will distinguish the two.

So I've long looked for canon appearances of the Victory-class. The only official mention is in the Tarkin novel. But I'd like your opinion on one potential visual appearance. In Darth Vader #6 (2015), when Vader finds out about Luke's tie to him, there's a panel where he cracks a window. The star destroyers in the panel look like Victories. Note the winglets and even one appears to have the vertical antenna array. This isn't mentioned as canon. But it'd be good to confirm.

[@ivanvoronov3871]

Other visual cues to llok for aside from sensor tower... Imperial I has 3 dorsal spine mounted turrets, 2 quad barreled turrets (1 per trench side), 2 ventral turrets, and large dual barrel (3) and single barrel (1) on each side of the command tower. Imperial IIs have none of those but instead have 4 large eight barrel turrets on each side of the command tower.

[@doct0rnic]

Its more realistic to assume the same class of ship would have slightly different design features. A real world example would be railroad locomotives, although a particular model is made by the factory, each railroad custom orders different features that make them different even though its the same model specs between the others. Also newer models of the same locomotive has updated features but still not considered a different model. Its interesting working for a railroad and riding the same locomotive but also seeing different variations of it, no one model has standard features for all. I think when mass producing large machinery its impossible to conform to exact design specs especially since parts are made in house and the time it takes to make, updates are usually added after seeing older models field tested like the antenna array for example
