The Procursator-class Star Destroyer was an Imperial warship in the Star Destroyer design family.
Design
The Procursator-class was similar in appearance to the Imperial-class Star Destroyer. Designed with many of the systems and advancements found int the Imperial II-class it was a formidable ship and often underestimated because of it being slightly shorter, at 1200 meters in length than An Imperial-class.. The Procursator-class was built with a reactor dome that jutted out on the ventral side of the vessel and covered with protective armor, similar to other Imperial warships. The design was propelled by three large thrusters giving the vessel a top sublight speed of 65 MGLT. The T-shaped bridge tower was similar to the command tower on other Imperial Star Destroyer designs, like the Imperial-class. Much like the T-shaped tower on the contemporary Victory-class, it was smaller in scale than the modular KDY tower on the Imperial-class.
While lightly armed the Procursator-class used itsspeed, superior shielding and maneuvering to engage ships larger and more powerful than itself. Three Large Quad Heavy Turbolaser Barbettes Mounter just forward of the Command Superstructure provide the Procursator-class with enough power to stand its ground against any vessel fielded by the Alliance. With a 270 degree line of fire these guns can engage any target on any arch of fire. Four Heavy Torpedo tubes are located on the forward firing arch of the superstructure two to each side of center line and the axial heavy batteries. two large Magazines feed each set of tow tubes with a full load out of two hundred Heavy Torpedoes each. A Double Heavy Turbolaser Turret is located on the lower ventral hull where the hanger bay would generally be. Four Double Heavy Ion Cannons are located along the rim trench sections two forward and two aft on each side of the ship. Four double Turbolaser cannon turrets are mounted on each flank of the superstructure. Twenty Turbolaser and Ion Cannons are places in Batteries of five on the Ventral and Dorsal Hull. Eight Quad Laser Cannons give the Procursator its Anti-fighter and anti-projectile defensive capabilities. Six Tractor Beam Projectors are used to capture enemy craft and assist in fighter and shuttle recovery. Twenty four Starfighters are stored and launched from a small hanger forward of the lower weapons mount.
History
The first of the Procursator-class came online shortly before the Battle of Endor. Being intended to act as a command ship for smaller flotilla groups where a Vindicator class was not heavy enough but an Imperial class could not be deployed. Later deployment shifted to that of outer rim patrol where these ships operated in destroyer lines of three Star Destroyers each keeping the peace and as a show of Imperial dedication to defending its boarders.
