Victory-class Star Destroyer

Victory-class Star Destroyer: Victory I-class Star Destroyers were 900 meters long, just over half the size of the later Imperial-class Star Destroyer. Unlike later Star Destroyer designs, the Victory possessed the ability to enter the upper levels of a planetary atmosphere. This gave the ship a decided advantage of added precision when engaging in the ground attack operations the class was designed to carry out. In addition, the Victory could also pursue other vessels hoping to escape by diving towards a planet.^[8] A set of atmospheric maneuvering surfaces were located along the ship's flanks as well.
