VICTORY II-CLASS STAR DESTROYER
It did not come off the production line until after the Clone Wars had ended, and consequently only a handful ever saw completion. Yet Rendili StarDrive's Victory II Star Destroyer has made an impact in this age of Imperial- and Super-class Star Destroyers. While the Victory I is primarily a planetary assault vessel, the Victory II was designed with space combat in mind.
The Victory II is fitted with powerful Hoersch-Kessel engines that add significantly to the Destroyer's sublight speed and manuverability. In addition to its normal armament, the Victory II is equipped with ion cannons and enhanced tractor beam projectors. In combination, these weapons regularly disrupt the usual performance of an enemy ship, leaving it vulnerable to the Victory II's destructive weaponry.
Victory II Destroyers are designed with hangar bays large enough for two squadrons of TIE fighters. A recent shortage and high demand for the starfighters has seen the mothballing of several hangars, or the use of non-combat craft as battle platforms.
The main duty of the small number of these Star Destroyers is sector patrol. In pairs, or with other ships, Victory IIs regularly move into suspected hot spots and areas of Rebel or pirate activity with orders to pacify the sector.
