Destroyer

Destroyers find the middle ground between speed, armor, and weapons. Although less heavily armored than cruisers, destroyers have the maneuverability to hit targets which cruisers and dreads cannot without imposing a large risk on themselves.

UGTO

ST-22 Gunboat Destroyer

Role: Gunboat

• Weapons: 2 chemical beams lasers, 2 particle cannons, 2 heavy particle cannons, 4 proton torpedoes, and a flux wave device.

• Rank Requirement: Commander

• Badges required: None

A well rounded ship with four cannons, two lasers and six torpedoes, the Gunboat Destroyer is a perfect ship for novice and experianced captains alike. They are dreadly in the right hands, alone, in a group, and even against Dreadnoughts.

ST-23 Missile Destroyer

Role: Missile Boat

• Weapons: 3 chemical beam lasers and 6 ion tracker missile launchers.

• Rank Requirement: Lieutenant Commander

• Badges required: Bronze Combat

"Missile Spam in a tin can" as they are called, Missile ships have lost favour with Captains and the Trade Navy in general, however they still have a few dedcated followers which use them.

ST-24 Assault Destroyer

Role: Assault

• Weapons: 8 chemical beam lasers, 2 flux beams, 6 proton torpedo launchers, and a flux wave device.

• Rank Requirement: Captain

• Badges required: Silver Combat

Sometimes good things come in small packages, and this is true for the Assault Destroyer. Its heavy weapons load can easily carve holes in the armour of enemy ships, but beware, its light armour means it cannot take the damage that other destoryers can.

ST-28 Picket Destroyer

Role: Point Defense

• Weapons: 10 chemical beam lasers and 8 particle cannons.

• Rank Requirement: Lieutenant Commander

• Badges required: None

Known as 'Gods Flashlight', these Destoryers are armed to the teeth with laser's. So it's not surprising that its main role is missle defense. It also carries a light Cannon layout for dealing with smaller ships, however due to the amount of weapons it carries, it does not carry a Aux reactor, so energy drains quickly if you are not carefull.

One of the first destroyers you unlock, its not a bad little ship. Its great for PD, but can also use that laser and gun array on small ships
