This vessel has similar dimensions and proportions to the standard Imperator Class Star Destroyer, and the basic hull and infrastructure is also same. Yet it also mounts four gravity well generators for suppressing hyperdrive travel within its vicinity. These projectors are a major structural feature, and the ship is Kuat Drive Yard's answer to the early development of the diminutive Immobilizer 418 Interdictor Class Cruiser built by the competitor Sienar Fleet Systems.

The Dominator Class Star Destroyer has a somewhat more versatile role than the specialized Immobilizer 418, which is not intended to engage in heavy combat. Instead, this interdictor Star Destroyer seems to combine the offensive role of a well-armed and durable Star Destroyer with the Interdictor Class Cruiser's hyperspace blockade capability. The Dominator Class Star Destroyer can stage its own ambushes and prevent the escape of its prey. The Dominator Class Star Destroyer has somewhat weaker shielding than the Imperator Class Star Destroyer. The four gravity well generators is a great power drain, and that accounts for this shield power deficiency.

The first Dominator Class Star Destroyers saw active service few months after the cowardly destruction of the Imperial I Death Star, but did not become a common vessel in the Imperial Navy before the return of Grand Admiral Thrawn.
