The destroyer was the Allied medium warship during the Second World War. It was the intermediate between the gunboat and cruiser and served as the backbone of the Allied navy.
[edit] Background
Unlike its companions the destroyer was a multivalent unit. A bow mounted missile box launcher engaged aircraft, structures, and armor with heat-seeking Stinger missiles. It could also fill the anti-submarine role with depth charges. Dual depth charge launchers allowed Destroyers to fight Soviet submarines on more or less equal terms. The missiles not only engage surface targets effectively but also aircraft as well. Destroyers are the prime escorts of cruisers, which only provide heavy surface fire. Destroyers could also outrange tesla coils and most other soviet units.
[edit] Game Unit
The destroyer is an improvement over the gunboat. The missiles are effective against tanks and structures, but ineffective against infantry.
