This is what happens to the Super Star Destoyer Executor in RotJ



  • All fire is concentarted on the Super Star Destroyer Executor.

  • Only 2 A-wings destory the bridge deflector shields

  • And before forward weapons are activated a third A-wing crashes into the SSD bridge which explodes from all sides.

  • And then the 19.000 meter long craft sinks like a dart into the Death Star, destroying it completely.

How and why? I always thought this ship a total useless part of the movies because it really doesn't show any threat anywhere, other to be big. And while it is part of the final battle it's defeated in the most easiest way possible.

  • @Valorum: Sure, but the art is for the driver to achieve the following, right before burning to ashes: To turn and lock the steering wheel in such a way that the car does a 90° turn, followed by a movement straight ahead, and thereby hit the one big obstacle that should preferrably be evaded for safety reasons. (In case there are usually no death stars in the area you usually drive around in, you may want to imagine a more mundane obstacle.)

The film's official novelisation indicates that a mixture of torpedo fire (and the kamikaze A-Wing) set off a chain reaction of explosions, starting at the bridge but spreading to the mid-section of the ship.




The bridge was hit, with kaleidoscopic results. A rapid chain reaction
got set off, from power station to power station along the middle
third of the huge Destroyer, producing a dazzling rainbow of
explosions that buckled the ship at right angles, and started it
spinning like a pinwheel toward the Death Star.




The junior novelisation also mentions that the intensive fire knocked out the secondary control systems and that the ship was pulled into the Death Star as a result of its own gravity.




The A-wing smashed into the Executor’s bridge and exploded, causing
the entire ship to veer off course. Damage-control crews were unable
to seize command using the auxiliary control centers, and the Executor
was dragged into the Death Star’s gravitational field.
