This article details a subject that is considered canon.

At last the work of generations is complete. The great error is corrected. The day of victory is at hand. The day of revenge. The day of the Sith.Darth Sidious

The Sith Eternal military comprised the various branches of the Sith Eternal such as the Final Order and the Sith Eternal army. Born out of Galactic Emperor Darth Sidious' twisted mind and built in the utmost secrecy on the dark world of Exegol prior to 35 ABY, the Sith Eternal military was meant to succeed and supplant the old Imperial Military as well as the First Order military.

Nevertheless, the Sith Eternal military never fulfilled its purpose. Engaged in a desperate fight by the Resistance and the Citizens' Fleet at the Battle of Exegol in 35 ABY, the mighty forces of Darth Sidious ultimately lost their first and only battle following the death of the Dark Lord of the Sith and the destruction of its flagship. Trapped on Exegol and without leadership, the Sith Eternal military effectively collapsed, thus putting a premature end to the biggest threat the galaxy has ever known.

Overview

My Sith Eternal would provide me the tools I needed. It was they who constructed a fully operational armada on Exegol at my command. It was they who trained their offspring to operate those vessels with deadly efficiency. For a generation, they toiled and trained, and now their efforts shall be put to the test as the Final Order prepares to arise!Darth Sidious

The Sith Eternal's military was created on Exegol from materials provided by corporations such as Kuat-Entralla Engineering and Sienar-Jaemus Fleet Systems, whose directorates were infiltrated with Darth Sidious' Sith loyalists. Its military members were young humans raised on the Sith world[2] after the fall of the Emperor in 4 ABY.[7]

Final Order

To assure my conquest of the known galaxy, thousands of next-generation Star Destroyers were assembled in the launch bays carved beneath the surface of Exegol. This Final Order has been equipped with superlasers capable of annihilating a planet from far orbit. Now, any who dare to challenge my rightful place in the galaxy will learn the same painful lesson as the scum on Jedha, Alderaan, and Hosnian Prime.Darth Sidious

Main article: Final Order

The Final Order was a fleet assembled on Exegol prior to Kylo Ren's arrival. This military branch was to aid the Sith in establishing a new Sith Empire over the galaxy.[1] The fleet consisted of over a thousand Xyston-class Star Destroyers equipped with axial superlasers able to destroy entire planets and thousands of TIE/dg starfighters.[1]

Sith Eternal army

The most elite members in my new army, these crimson soldiers are fully devoted to my cause.Darth Sidious

The Sith Eternal army was composed of Sith troopers, Sith Jetpack Troopers, and the elite Sovereign Protectors. They utilized advanced AAL-2100/9.5 atmospheric assault landers. The Sith troopers were divided into legions named after ancient Sith Lords, while the Sith jet troopers were divided into squads named after Sith weaponry.[1]

None shall stand in the way of my return. The First Order was just the beginning. The Sith fleet will increase my forces ten-thousandfold.Darth Sidious

This military force was revealed to the galaxy in a demonstration of its destructive potential;[1] one of the Final Order's Xyston-class Star Destroyers, the Derriphan, utilized its axial superlaser on the Mid Rim planet Kijimi,[2] resulting in the decimation of the planet in a scale comparable to that of the Death Stars'[8][9] and Starkiller Base's superweapons.[10] This represented the true power of the military force and demonstrated the Sith Eternal's ability and willingness to obliterate entire planets, which refused to submit to the Emperor's authority.

This military suffered extensive losses during the Battle of Exegol, where the Resistance and its allies—the Citizens' Fleet—emerged victorious from confronting the resurgent Emperor, who also perished on the world at the hands of his granddaughter.[1]

As Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates the Incident to 34 ABY, it can be deduced the events of Star Wars: Episode IX The Rise of Skywalker take place in 35 ABY and that the Sith Eternal military was dissolved in 35 ABY.

  7. ↑ Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker: The Visual Dictionary dates the events of Star Wars: Episode IX The Rise of Skywalker as taking place one year after the Starkiller Incident. As Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates the Incident to 34 ABY, it can be deduced the events of Star Wars: Episode IX The Rise of Skywalker take place in 35 ABY. The ages of Sith Eternal military members at the time are provided in the Visual Dictionary. With the exception of senior high-ranking officers such as Allegiant General Enric Pryde, the members, such as ST-A1215, Simero Quonit, and Chesille Sabrond, were aged from thirty to twenty-one years. Hence, it could be deduced that they were born around 5 ABY—14 ABY, which was after the fall of the Emperor as it occurred during the Battle of Endor, itself depicted in Star Wars: Episode VI Return of the Jedi, which is dated to 4 ABY, a period of time in the galactic standard calendar prior to that of 5—14 ABY, all again in accordance with the Galactic Atlas.
