Design
The Tector-class was built off of the Imperial-class Star Destroyer. The main modification was the removal of the ventral Hanger. Instead of ventral hangar bays, the design opted for an increase in armor that covered the areas normally used as main hangar openings, as well as the reactor core. Heavier weapons, armor, and shielding were installed making the Tector design more efficient in ship-to-ship combat, as it had less access to internal weak-spots. However, it limited its usefulness in other roles. Being without hangars, it required dedicated carriers to provide any starfighter support.

The first official reference to the Tector-class Star Destroyer occurred in Revenge of the Sith: Incredible Cross-Sections. The inspiration for the Tector-class was a ship that was briefly spotted in Return of the Jedi.
