Mandator-class Dreadnaught

The Mandator-class Dreadnaught of the Mandator line was a type of dreadnought in the naval forces of the Galactic Empire. The Mandator belonged to the family of Imperial Navy dreadnoughts that included the Bellator-class dreadnought and the Assertor-class Star Dreadnought, the largest member of that family. In 0 BBY,Star Wars: Rogue One: Rebel Dossier indicates that the communication in which the Mandator-class Dreadnaught was mentioned occurred shortly before the events of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, which took place in 0 BBY according to Star Wars: Galactic Atlas. General Jan Dodonna sent a rebel communication in which he postulated that a capital ship would have to be at least the size of a Mandator-class Dreadnaught to supply power for a superlaser and that the laser would still not have enough strength to destroy a planet.
