While Starfleet and the New Republic Defense Force created their Kenobi-class Starcruiser, the Klingon Empire and Imperial Remnant entered a similar technological exchange. Deciding to update the sizable Imperial-class Star Destroyer Fleet, they used a Imperial II-class Star Destroyer as the basis for an entirely new ship.

One of the first changes was removing the neck that connected the bridge to the body of the ship itself, connecting it directly to the ship to make it less of a target. as well as most of the armament except for the main battery and the ion cannons, which was replaced by more accurate Klingon Disruptors which were equivalent to the Type X phaser the Federation uses.

Starfighter compliment was cut in half to make way for the addition of two carried D-13 Bird of Prey in the hangar, however the starfighters were the most powerful that the Empire had to offer. Also carried was a single Vorcha-class ship on top of the vessel, where there were a lot of empty space after multiple refits.

Tests with the new vessel have been successful, and it is expected that the Thrawn-class Star Destroyer would become a mainstay of both Empires in five years.
