"In Dark Empire a New Republic star destroyer crashed on Coruscant. It was ruined, but that probably had more to do with the physical impact than with the surface conditions. Since star destroyers can withstand accelerations of thousands of times the gravity of a habitable planet, soft oceanic landings should be possible. The fact that this is not often attempted must be partly due to physical awkwardness, and the environmental damage caused by a warship in atmosphere. It may also indicate that a star destroyer's lateral (as opposed to longitudinal) acceleration, provided by its repulsors, may be not so great compared to the local gravity. If the ship was facing upwards, it could launch without difficulty; being on its belly may be the problem. The command-ship Lusankya involves technology similar to a star destroyer, and yet it could only lift off a standard planetary surface (from a cold start) with aid from a single-use specialised giant repulsorlift sled. The tentative result of these considerations is that the acceleration of medium and large Imperial warships may have maximum limits that are much more stringent than their phenomenal fore/aft acceleration. Of course the immobility may actually be due to other unconsidered disadvantages of operations near a planetary surface"

 

So yes, it can withstand the gravity of a full-size planet, and like the article said it probably has to do with moving properly...so basically it would be useless biggrin.gif

The Knight Hammer!!! And the victory-class is cool, too. Atmospheric combat, here we come!

I like the Vengeance as well, and isn't it the Imperator-class, not Imperial?

I believe Helix means the Eclipse.

At last we will reveal ourselves to the Jedi.

At last we will have revenge.
