Devastator (battlecruiser)

"The Rebs see us comin' and look like they about to start runnin'!"

- Unidentified Imperial Navy crewman

The Devastator was an Allegiance-class battlecruiser in the Imperial Navy of the Galactic Empire, and later saw use by the Dark Empire and the Imperial Remnant. Commanded by Captain Ferdas Sankaran since 3 ABY, the Devastator saw extensive action, most notably at the Battle of Endor. It later saw action during Operation Shadow Hand, Imperial Civil War, and later the Yuuzhan Vong War. During it's service, the Devastator saw extensive upgrades and modification by Captain Sankaran, who ordered the additions as more advanced technology was created by the Empire. It became a known vessel throughout the Imperial Remnant Navy, which respected it as it was in service during the height of the Empire in the Galactic Civil War.

The Devastator saw much action during it's service time, and was on of the first Allegiance-class battlecruisers. Captain Sankaran speculated it was built shortly after the end of the Clone Wars. The large battlecruiser also became the oldest in use, as the rest of the ships of it's class were phased out by the Fel Empire. The Devastator remained a symbol of the Navy's power throughout the later years, and symbolizes the golden days of the Empire to the personnel of the Navy. Sankaran himself was a veteran of the Galactic Civil War and prior conflicts.
