ДЄccording to in-universe Star Wars sources, the Executor was the lead ship of a new class of Star Dreadnoughts the term 'Super Star Destroyer' is a colloquialism applied to any ship larger than a standard Imperial Star Destroyer. According to chief model maker Lorne Peterson, the ship was originally scaled to appear sixteen miles long, though later sources would amend this figure. A six-foot model of the Executor was constructed which had over 150,000 individual lights in it. ДЇor The Empire Strikes Back, George Lucas wanted the Executor to be so massive it made the previous Star Destroyers appear tiny. It features again in Return of the Jedi where, during the final space battle, it is destroyed after a Rebel A-wing crashes into the command bridge, causing the Executor to lose control and be destroyed as the second Death Star's gravity pulls the flagship into its surface. The Executor serves as Darth Vader's personal flagship during the events of The Empire Strikes Back, leading the Death Squadron against the Rebel Alliance on Hoth and in pursuit of the Millennium Falcon.
