Destroyer

A destroyer is a type of military vessel used by space-faring species for a variety of purposes. While more technologically advanced species may use destroyers in specific roles, the term destroyer is also widely used to refer to the military vessels of all species, regardless of role, that exceed a corvette in size.

The roles of a destroyer may vary, though they are typically dedicated combat vessels. Because they lack the speed and maneuverability of corvettes, destroyers do not often operate independently, but rather as a composite of a larger fleet. Destroyers are equipped with a hyperdrive, and are thus capable of interstellar travel via hyperlanes.
