Deepdocks were mobile shipyards used by the Imperial Navy.[1]

[edit] Characteristics
The smallest deep dock type had three work bays, one of which could hold a Victory-class Star Destroyer and the others capable of holding a ship smaller than a carrier. They were equipped with tractor beam generators that could hold up to 8 damaged ships on hold.[1]
All deep docks had the advantage of being able to travel through hyperspace, thus shorting repair time and avoiding Rebel attacks more easily.[1]
[edit] History
The largest deepdock known was the Rendili R/M Facility Number Four, with 125 modular work bays. These bays were usually modular, being able to reconfigure to support larger vessels.[1]
As the war ground on, more and larger deep dock designs were being produced to aid in the Imperial war effort. At this time, standard deepdock fleets contained two deepdocks and 280 support vessels, along with engineering assets.[1]
