Template:Ship The UNSC Destroyer is a warship in the UNSC fleet.
Although this classification is only seven meters longer than a UNSC Frigate, they are almost double the mass, weighing in at 8,000 tons. Unlike most ships in the fleet, Destroyers carry no single-ship fighters, such as Longswords - their large mass comes rather from the two meters of Titanium A armour battle plate covering the ship.
These warships are looked down upon by many in the fleet because they are considered too slow and cumbersome in combat. However, in reality, the UNSC Destroyer could recieve and dish out a considerable amount of damage for its length: a valuable asset in the UNSC's war against the Covenant.
