Imperial Navy (Sith Empire)

The Imperial Navy, also called the Imperial Armada, was the naval branch of the Sith Empire's Imperial military. It fought against the Galactic Republic during the Great Galactic War and was maintained in the Cold War that followed. The Navy fielded a large fleet of warships of various classes throughout the War. It was constructed over centuries by orders of Grand Moff Odile Vaikan, who knew that he would not live to see a fraction of it complete.

History
When the original Sith Empire of Naga Sadow collapsed and the Sith went into exile in the Unknown Regions, the navy shrunk to a small group of ships used to travel by the remnant. After finding refuge on Dromund Kaas, the Sith began a massive build up of military forces under Grand Moff Odile Vaikan. He started construction on a massive armada that took nearly three centuries to complete, knowing he would not be alive when it was done. All non-Force-sensitive people living on Dromund Kaas were conscripted either into the Navy or the Imperial Army. Vaiken died during the first operation undertaken by the Navy, Odile Vaiken's final campaign against an alien race.

During the Great Galactic War, the Navy proved to be a vital component of the military. They transported Army troops to various worlds, taking part in various engagements with the Republic Navy. Those included Skirmish in the Tingel Arm, and the first and second Battles of Bothawui. In the final act of the war, a massive fleet was used to sack Coruscant, the capitol of the Galactic Republic. It led to the Treaty of Coruscant, causing the Navy to stop activities.

It indirectly took part in the Cold War, which was mainly fought by proxies of the Republic and Empire. When the Second Great Galactic War broke out, the Armada fought in the conflict. However, unlike in the last war, it took heavy casualties, almost as much as it's Republic counterpart. Eventually, it was dissolved as the Empire fell.

Much later, during Emperor Palpatine's New Order and the rise of the Galactic Empire, the Imperial Navy was modeled after the Armada, using ships similar to those used by them.
