star wars resurgent class star destroyer

The Finalizer can launch her full complement of starfighters and assault ships much more quickly than her predecessors in the Imperial Navy could. Her dorsal flight deck, side hangars, amd prominent keep are similar elements of the Venator-class Star Destroyer, reflecting a renewed appreciation among the First Order tacticians for capital ships’ role as carriers. While its size evokes the command ships of the Empire, the Finalizer’s design recalls those of Republic-era capital ships from the Clone Wars. The Finalizer is a devastating weapons platform and highly effective carier, but it is also a symbol of the new regime’s power, designed to recall the era when Imperial might was at its greatest, and inspire awe in the First Order’s enemies.

But the lessons of Imperial power have not been lost on the First Order’s ship designers. The First Order lacks the resources to build huge numbers of massive capital ships like those that once served the Emperor. But Leia Organa knows the Resurgent-class is all too real, and her operatives obsessively track reports of these warships. Many in the New Republic dismiss sightings of these ships as typical Resistance fearmongering. The Finalizer’s heavy weapons are augmented by two wings of starfighters, a hundred assault craft, and a full legion of stormtroopers trained since birth for loyalty to the First Order.
