The empire used many different types of TIE Fighters as its starfighters. Due to the extra armor and weapons, the hyperdrive was half as fast as the Victory Class ships. However, due to the increased military might, the hyperdrive was nowhere near as powerful. It has 60 Turbolasers, 60 ion cannons, & 10 tractor beams. The shields were more powerful, it had stronger armoring, and it was better at ship to ship combat due to its increased armaments. They were an improvement upon the Victory Class Star Destroyer, which was used during the very end of the Clone Wars. The Imperial Class Star Destroyer is what appeared first in "A New Hope." These were the most common capital ships in the IN. There are 4 main types of Star Destroyers in Canon: The Empire, just like the Republic, utilized KDY Star Destroyers as their main capital and warships.
This is why the Imperial Star Destroyers and the Republic Star Destroyers look so similar, as KDY just kept improving their own product, again and again. KDY was also paid to make ships for the Republic during the Clone Wars. Their TIE line is their most famous product, and it helped to make them a galaxy-wide name. Sienar Fleet Systems was utilized by the Republic to make fighters during the Clone Wars, and then later by the Empire. Sienar Fleet Systems built all of the Empire's starfighters, and Kuat Drive Yards built the rest, including all walkers utilized by the Imperial Ground Forces. The Imperial Navy was present in the Galaxy from 19BBY until 5ABY (when the Empire was defeated at the Battle of Jakku)
The style of war had differed during this time, and less emphasis was placed upon starfighter support, so the Imperial SD had more weapons and a smaller hangar than the Republic SD. The Galactic Empire used Star Destroyers as the backbone of their fleet, and they are an upgraded version of the Clone Wars Era Republic Star Destroyers, which is why they look so similar. The Canon IN is also the largest fleet to exist in the entire history of Star Wars (now that the Rakatan Infinite Empire is no longer Canon). It underwent constant upgrading and expansion.
