2.1.4 Destroyers

Destroyers are vessels smaller than a Cruiser, but larger than a Frigate. Designed almost entirely for military purposes, they are as heavily armed and defended as a Cruiser (or even a Light Battle Cruiser). They serve as support craft for Cruisers, Battle Cruisers and Battleships. Examples include the Klingon Sompek class Heavy Destroyer and the Cardassian Aberax class Destroyer.
Experience in the Dominion War tends to suggest that Federation destroyers are closely matched with the Destroyers of potential Threat species; though less heavily armed, the quality of their tactical scanners, targeting systems, and operating personnel more than make up for the lack of pure “punch.”
