Escape-class Star Destroyer

Escape-class Star Destroyer

The Escape-class Star Destroyer was a new ship design by the Kuat Drive Yards for the New Republic.

Characteristics
From afar, the ship appearred as an Acclamator-class assault ship.

The ship as a special escape pod system that inspired the classes name. It was one of the ship characteristics that convinced the New Republic Admiral Ackbar to allow the ship production. The ship was, in fact, almost completely modular: ,any parts incrusted in the ship hull were equipped with a propulsion system and a hyperdrive. They strangely ressembled to Acclamator-class assault ship's command tower. One was even placed deep into the heart of the ship. Once the escape pod ejection command is activated, all the ship part blocking the tube activates its own propulsion system to get out of the way. This system allow the complete evacuation of the ship.
