Comments:
This immense starship was the crowning achievement of the Imperial Navy. Dwarfing even the gigantic Imperial-class Star Destroyers, the Executor was one of the most formidable craft ever conceived. As flagship of the fleet it led the counterattack on the Rebellion after the Battle of Yavin, driving the Rebels into hiding. Without peer in the galaxy, it led many successful attacks against rebel worlds before finally being destroyed in the Battle of Endor when it crashed, engulfed in flames, into the second Death Star.
