It mounted defenses strong enough to resist even some of the smaller Super Star Destroyers or analog warships. It was designed to be able to defeat any one enemy Star Destroyer, two heavy cruisers, or an entire line of smaller Imperial support ships. Its small size often lead to it being referred to as a "pocket Star Destroyer", much as the later Turbulent-class would be as well. Even with a structure that was a significant departure from the Imperial-class, especially the lack of a command tower, the Nebula was often mistaken for an Imperial design due to its angular lines. The Nebula-class Star Destroyer, also known as the Defender-class Star Destroyer, was the largest, most powerful warship design in the New Republic's New Class Modernization Program.Īlthough it was only 1,040 meters long (65% of the length of an Imperial-class Star Destroyer), the Nebula-class was built to be a match for an Imperial II.
