Some Victory variants dispensed with the atmospheric maneuvering surfaces altogether. A set of atmospheric maneuvering surfaces were located along the ship's flanks as well.

In addition, the Victory could also pursue other vessels hoping to escape by diving towards a planet.

This gave the ship a decided advantage of added precision when engaging in the ground attack operations the class was designed to carry out. Like later Star Destroyer designs, the Victory possessed the ability to enter the upper levels of a planetary atmosphere. Victory I-class Star Destroyers were 900 meters long, just over half the size of the later Imperial-class Star Destroyer. The Harbinger-class is based on the Darth Vader's flagship, the Executor, and the Dominance SSD, which served as the inspiration for the split stern.Victory I-class Star Destroyer schematics. Because of this, the gunners were not used to combat, and this became apparent during the rare occasion of a battle.

The Harbinger-class was very similar to the Executor-class star dreadnought of times past, but with a split stern.

The vessel was also intended to be used as a staging area for large-scale invasions. The Harbinger-class was used as a command ship, and the only ship of the class, the Harbinger, served as the mobile headquarters for Ursula Vaiken and the Sith Dominion. Along the central beam of the ship, situated at the bow, was a 5,000 megaton superlaser capable of cracking continents and destroying fleets. The Harbinger's armament included: 100,000 heavy turbolasers, 150,000 medium turbolasers, and 90,000 variable warhead launchers, all used for ship-to-ship combat and orbital strikes. The Harbinger-class was designed to be the ultimate star destroyer, and, as such, utilized many different weapons as it's armament. After years of construction and research and development trial and error, the first, and only, ship of this class, the Harbinger, was launched. The Harbinger-class was developed by the Sith Dominion after they saw schematics for the Destroyer Two.
