Shield-projectors were placed throughout the hull, which decentralized the protection system and decreased the chance of all shields falling at once. Its shields handled much of the power generated-an amount equivalent to the total power of a medium star (3.8 × 1026 W). Despite its impressive firepower, the design was far from perfect, as the ventral side and the aft was relatively undefended, and Executor-class SSDs required an impressive starfighter defensive screen to chase off enemy starfighters and marauding smaller capital ships that otherwise could remain in the main weaponry's blind spots. On at least one ship, many heavy batteries were sacrificed for an increased number of anti-starfighter cannons. With warships being able to direct all power to their energy weapons, the Executor-class had at least 100 times more firepower than an Imperial-class destroyer.Ī majority of gun batteries and missile launchers were located in the central cityscape on the class's dorsal side, while some point-defense guns were located throughout the side-trenches. The Executor-class had over 5,000 weapons emplacements, including turbolasers, assault concussion missile launchers, and ion cannons. The main reactor was accessible through various service tubes. Thirteen Executor-50.x engines placed in five thruster banks gave the Executor-class impressive acceleration for its size. The Executor-class was built with one main reactor and an unknown number of secondary reactors. Though several variants of the Executor-class existed, all followed similar design-attributes in terms of structure. The Executor-class measured 19 kilometers in length and was 100 times more massive than the ubiquitous Imperial-class Star Destroyer.Ģ80,734 Imperial Navy officers, gunners, and enlisted men were said to have crewed each vessel.
