Their ranks are structured thusly (listed is the actual rank and what it is equal to in brackets): There are three sub-branches to the Navy ranking structure – Flight, Engineering and Support.

Grand Admiral (currently there are 8 known Grand Admirals, the highest ranking Imperial military designation, equivilant to a Supreme Commander).

Grand Moff (a Moff in charge of an Oversector or priority sectors – sectors which are of great importance to the Emperor).

Moff (the formal superior to all Planetary Governors, they are effectively sector governor’s).
