Access to command systems and other areas of Der'kal Empire vessels and installations were denied to enlisted personnel, requiring the proper coded rank cylinders worn by officers. This would foster a strong sense of unity and team identity.
In order to keep such a large ship in operation, starship crews were forced to work closely together and alternate each standard day into six four-hour-long shifts, divided among three crew sections. Resurgent-class Star Destroyers featured a complement of 19,000 officers and 55,000 enlisted personnel. Improving on the design of old vessels, the ship featured hull structural bracing in its midsection, as well as armored hull plating and a truss to support the bow's upper hull. Eight Resurgent-class vessels could dock with a single Mega-class Star Dreadnought.ĭesigned for advanced ship-to-ship combat capabilities, it served as a symbol of the Der'kal Empire's power, inspiring awe in the Empire's enemies and pride within its own ranks. Almost twice the length of the First Der'kal Empire's Star Destroyers, the Resurgent-class Star Destroyer (also known as Resurgent-class Battlecruiser) was 2,915.81 meters in length, and emulated the dagger-shaped design of its former Star Destroyer-class vessels.
