I've always wondered about this (okay, not "always," only since Lucas
established the timeline).  How in the heck was the Empire able to ramp up
production facilities to build such huge vessels, in the span of less than • 50
years or so?  In AotC we've got what looks like the precursors to Star
Destroyers; Anakin's kids are mid-30's in RotJ, and we've got Super Star
Destroyers.

Considering that you've got an entire galaxy of resources to call upon, I
don't see this as a problem.  Don't forget, the Clone Army and, presumably
all of its equipment and armament, was cloned, constructed and put together
in less than ten years.  Prior to the Clone Army, the Republic had NO armed
forces to speak of, other than local militia, Police and of course the
Jedi - but at the end of Episode II, we've already got a fleet of Assault
Ships and all the paraphanalia that goes with them.

Presumably there are massive construction facilities somewhere to build the
huge fleets of trade ships and freighters that fly around the galaxy, these
could no doubt be easily converted for military use when/if needed?

Regards,

Andrew.
