The '''UNSC Destroyer''' is a warship classification in the [[UNSC Navy]]. Fast, maneuverable, and designed for long-endurance, the Destroyer class was intended to escort larger vessels, such as the [[Marathon-class Cruiser|''Marathon'']]- and [[Halcyon-class Cruiser|''Halcyon''-class]] Cruisers.


==Specifications==
'''Destroyer''' is a warship classification in the [[UNSC Navy]], as well as the now-defunct [[Colonial Military Authority]]. Its [[hull classification symbol]] is '''''DD'''''. Fast, maneuverable, and designed for long-term endurance, destroyers are intended to escort larger vessels such as cruisers and carriers.
Although vessels of this classification are only seven meters longer than a [[UNSC Frigate]], they are almost double the mass. Unlike most ships in the fleet, Destroyers carry no single-ship ([[Longsword]] or [[Shortsword]]) fighters, their large mass comes rather from the one and a half <ref>[[Halo: First Strike]] Pg. 207</ref>to two meters of [[Titanium A armor]] battle plate covering the ship. [[Catherine Elizabeth Halsey|Dr. Catherine Halsey]] once stated that Destroyers are essentially the same as Frigates except for this additional armor.


The Destroyer's armament comes in the form of two [[Magnetic Accelerator Cannon]]s, twenty-six oversized [[Archer Missile]] pods, and three [[Shiva-class Nuclear Missile]]s. For defence against [[starfighter]]s, the Destroyer carries eight point-defence autocannons.
==Classes==
The Navy has made use of several destroyer classes which vary widely in design.


==Class History==
{| class="wikitable"
These warships were used to put down the [[Eridanus Rebels]] during [[Operation: TREBUCHET]], with the loss of several vessels. The destroyer [[UNSC Heracles|''Heracles'']] was the command ship of [[Battlegroup D]] during the disastrous [[First Battle of Harvest|first contact]] with the [[Covenant]].

During the [[Human-Covenant War]] these warships were looked down upon by many in the Navy. The Destroyer class was initially considered too weak against the superior Covenant ships, but in reality, it could receive and dish out a considerable amount of damage for its size, and in groups could prove a match for the larger [[CCS-class Battlecruisers]] used by the Covenant. Despite this, many were destroyed in the War.

[[Jacob Keyes]] commanded a destroyer, the [[UNSC Iroquois|UNSC ''Iroquois'']] during a short skirmish over [[Sigma Octanus IV]], where he devised the [[Keyes Loop]] as an act of desperation. The ''Iroquois'' managed to single-handedly destroy two [[Covenant Frigate]]s and a [[Covenant Destroyer]].

Destroyer is a warship classification in the UNSC Navy, as well as the now-defunct Colonial Military Authority. Its hull classification symbol is DD. Fast, maneuverable, and designed for long-term endurance, destroyers are intended to escort larger vessels such as cruisers and carriers.

Classes[edit]

The Navy has made use of several destroyer classes which vary widely in design.

Class Image Details
Halberd class Heart of Midlothian.png The Halberd class in service as early as 2508[6] and continued to serve throughout the Human-Covenant War. One of the most notable Halberd-class destroyers was the UNSC Iroquois, captained by Commander Jacob Keyes, which performed the daring Keyes Loop during the Battle of Sigma Octanus IV. This destroyer type continues to be in service with the Navy by 2557.[7]
Unidentified light destroyer class The light destroyer was in service prior to the Insurrection, and predated the introduction of the Magnetic Accelerator Cannon. Three such vessels famously took part in the Callisto Incident.
Able-class heavy destroyer 4K source screenhsot of the Able-class heavy destroyer used in the attached Waypoint article. The Able class has been in service with the Navy since 2490.[8] In 2497, the heavy destroyer UNSC Gorgon was the first ship of its class to be armed with a Magnetic Accelerator Cannon, for which the ship carried only three slugs.[9] Then-Captain Preston Cole served on this ship during the Insurrection. The Gorgon was later assigned to Admiral Cole's fleet during the Human-Covenant War.[10]
Hillsborough class CMA Heracles.jpg Similar in design to a cruiser,[11][12] the CMA destroyer Heracles belonged to the Hillsborough class of destroyer. The Heracles was the command ship of Battle Group 4 following the disastrous first contact with the Covenant.[12]
Diligence class The foremast of UNSC Kronstadt. The Diligence-class is an older class of destroyer formerly operated for peacekeeping purposes by the Colonial Military Authority.[13] The class has a wide beam and is almost equally tall. Numerous large antennae are mounted across the hull. By the start of the Covenant War, the Diligence-class had been retired for decades, though some ships were brought back into service and retrofitted for used in the war.[13] The only known vessel of this class, the UNSC Kronstadt, deployed an ODST-Spartan team during a raid on Heian at some point between 2540 and 2551.[14]
