Protector (Victory II-class)
Protector was a Victory II-class Star Destroyer in the service of the Imperial Navy during the Galactic Civil War and later the Yuuzhan Vong War.
History
Galactic Civil War
The Protector attempted and failed to stop the Mon Calamari Cruiser Independence from rendezvousing with the rest of the Rebel fleet at Sullust just before the Battle of Endor.
This ship survived the Battle of Endor and later became one of the ships under the command of Grand Admiral Gilad Pellaeon.[1]
Behind the scenes
In 2008, The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia stated there were three different Victory-class Star Destroyers called Protector in the Expanded Universe. Two were used by the Empire : this one and an other, flagship of Admiral Harkov.
The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia also identified the Imperial Remnant's Protector from The New Jedi Order: Force Heretic I: Remnant as the same ship.
