A/N: Welcome back to the Codex of the OSA! Here is the second generation of Star Destroyers that will be implemented later on in Rise of the OSA. Speaking of Rise of the OSA, the teaser for the first chapter is out! Check it out under Halo and Mass Effect Crossovers (couldn't make it do Halo, Star Wars, and Mass Effect sorry)


Second Generation Star Destroyers:

The Star Destroyers showed promise in testing and they did their designated jobs well enough that the new shipyards over Coruscant decided to commission new designs for the Star Destroyer line that used the lessons learned from the first gen SDs and design the new warships with those lessons in mind.

Legacy-class Star Destroyer

The Legacy-class Star Destroyer was somewhat of a hybrid design between the Venator-class and Imperator-class Star Destroyers in both size and armament. One of two unique features of the Legacy was that it didn't have any sort of bridge tower that was present in the Venator, Victory and Imperator Star Destroyers. The other unique feature of the Legacy was a pair of Ball joint heavy laser turrets that could fire a steady laser beam for 1 minute that was used to either punch through armour or drain the shields on a target. It lacked in fighter complement however, having 3 squadrons in it's hangar bay, only 12 more fighters/bombers than the contemporary Victory-class Star Destroyer.

Length: 1,400 meters

Armament:

12 Quad Heavy Turbolaser Turrets

2 Ball-joint Convergent Laser Cannon Turrets

2 Heavy Ion Cannon batteries

10 Dual Turbolaser Cannons

10 Ion Cannons

60 Point Defense Laser Cannons

10 Heavy Proton Torpedo Tubes

10 Heavy Torpedos per tube

Complement:

3 Squadrons (including bombers)

Victory II-class Star Destroyer

The Victory-class Star Destroyer's success as a escort to it's sister designs the Venator, Imperator and Centurion, led to the commission of a second iteration of the Victory that was simply named the Victory II-class Star Destroyer. The main differences between the Victory and Victory II were in the speed and armament of the ships. While heavily armed, the Victory was equipped with underpowered engines, causing it to be the slowest of the first gen Star Destroyers. The Victory II was designed with a larger number of engines that were both improved and consumed less power than the engines of her predecessor. The Concussion Missile tubes of the Victory were replaced by heavy ion cannons for better broadside capabilities, which the Victory was known to enter into due to the heavy armour equipped on the smallest of the SD line.

Length: 900 meters

Armament:

20 Dual Heavy Turbolaser Batteries

20 Turbolaser Batteries

4 turbolaser cannons per battery

10 Heavy Ion Cannons

10 Tractor Beam Projectors

Complement:

2 squadrons (including bombers)

Venator II-class Star Destroyer

When it became apparent that the Venator was under armed, even with a SPHAT artillery piece attached to the ventral hangar, a second iteration was ordered. The result was the Venator II-class Star Destroyer. It combined the armament and size of the Imperator-class with the Venator-class' engines and hangar capacity, producing a battleship/carrier that could dominate any war zone, bar those with the UNSC's supercarriers, super heavy cruisers, and dreadnoughts in the fighting. The Venator II also had the unique ability to carry an Arquitens-class Heavy Frigate in it's ventral hangar.

Length: 1,625 meters

Armament:

8 Heavy Turbolaser Batteries

4 turbolaser cannons per battery

6 Octuple Turbolaser Batteries

8 turbolaser cannons per battery

6 DBY-827 Dual Heavy Turbolaser Batteries

4 Ion Cannon Ball Turrets

4 ion cannons per ball turret

20 Quad Point-defense Laser Cannons

32 Assault Concussion Missile Launchers

16 assault concussion missiles per launcher

Complement:

33 fighter squadrons (including bombers)

Valiant-class Star Destroyer

The Valiant was designed to supplement the Venator II-class and Imperator-class Star Destroyers and outclassed them in some ways, including carrying capacity. It was a battleship/carrier that was designed with a single bridge tower that resembled the Venator-class bridge tower instead of the dual towers of the Venator. The Valiant used the DBY-827 heavy dual turbolaser turrets of the Venator due to the fact that they could adjust their power level in intensity, allowing the DBY to become either a point-defense turret if needed (depending on the skill of the gunners) or a heavy artillery or bombardment turret.

Length: 1,648 meters

Width: 588 meters

Height: 268 meters

Armaments:

22 DBY-827 heavy dual turbolaser turrets

8 Medium dual turbolaser cannons

50 Point-defense laser cannons

8 Heavy proton torpedo tubes

32 torpedoes per tube

8 Tractor beam projectors

Complement:

33 squadrons & 8 fighters (including bombers)
