| == Vessel Info ==
| |
| ===Dimensions===
| |
| [[file:destroyer_bridge.jpg|thumb|left|The bridge of a ''Khyron''-class destroyer.]]The ''Khryon''-class measures 1,600 meters stem to stern, putting it in the same size class as the [[starwars:Imperial-class Star Destroyer|''Imperial''-class Star Destroyer]]. It lacks the prominent dorsal command tower unlike the older [[starwars:Imperial|Imperial]] design, instead sharing design features with the smaller [[starwars:Nebula-class|Nebula-class]] design. Like other [[starwars:Kuat Drive Yards|Kuat Drive Yards]] designs, the ''Khyron'' incorporates a large ventral hangar deck to support auxiliary craft operations. | |
| | |
| ===Crew Requirements===
| |
| KDY was able to cut the required crew for the Khyron in half when compared to an Imperial-class destroyer. Much of this comes from higher levels of automation and computer control, but it is also a result of simpler subsystem design. The bulky and complex [[starwars:I-a2b solar ionization reactor|I-a2b solar ionization reactor]] around which the Imperial-class was designed was replaced with four smaller units designed in house at KDY. This allowed for the engineering crew requirements to be massively reduced, accounting for nearly half of the crew savings.
| |
| | |
| ===Offensive and Defensive Systems===
| |
| Like the ''Rejuvenator'' upon which it is based, the ''Khyron''-class sports a heavy complement of weapon systems. Designed to be able to engage enemy [[starwars:capital starship|capital starships]] at close range for extended periods, the main armament of the vessel is concentrated along the port and starboard flanks. The most significant departure of armament the ''Khyron'' makes from the ''Rejuvenator'' is her [[starwars:Proton torpedo|proton torpedo]] turrets. The Brotherhood designers that adapted the ''Rejuvenator'' design substituted the larger torpedo systems for the 12 [[starwars:assault concussion missile|assault concussion missile]] turrets that were standard. This decision was made late in the construction phase of the first ''Khyron''-class vessel, the [[KSD Arcanum|''Arcanum'']], and was in response to the use of [[starwars:shadow bomb|shadow bomb]]s by the [[starwars:Jedi|Jedi]] against the [[starwars:Yuzzhan Vong|Yuzzhan Vong]]. The Brotherhood chose to adapt these weapons for use by their [[starwars:starfighter|starfighter]] forces as well, and thought that their capital starship classes could benefit from this innovation. As the Brotherhood, like the Jedi, would be converting standard proton torpedoes for this purpose, the modification of the ''Khyron''-class design was made.
| |
| | |
| The ''Khyron''-class was built to thrive in the face of short range, long duration engagements and as such has defensive systems that are second to none. Her [[starwars:shield|shields]] are rated at a 30% greater power output then those of the latest production [[starwars:Imperial II-class Star Destroyer|Imperial-IIs]], and additionally incorporate multiple redundant backup systems much as [[starwars:Mon Calamari Shipyards|Mon Calamari]] designs do. The armor plating was also rated better then other capital vessels, with the plates themselves being fabricated as larger, single pieces to reduce the number of possible failure points where two plates were joined together.

History
Role
The Transcendent served as the central naval asset of Plagueis. Its firepower was nearly without peer, but it was also quite versatile. As such, the ship played the role of a nexus when engaged in combat. In addition, the Transcendent embarked a small ground force of battle droids. The droids were specially trained in boarding actions, serving to defend the vessel from any possible incursion. During planetary assault missions, the Transcendent was often tasked with the transport and deployment of elements Plagueis's infantry regiments. This was usually done to allow for greater tactical flexibility than deploying from the Ravager alone.
