Destroyer (Red Alert 1)

The destroyers were medium sized marine vessels of the Allied Forces in the Great World War II and formed the backbone of the Allied navy. They were designed to be endurant yet maneuverable and versatile against many kinds of targets.

To this end, the destroyers were outiftted with Stinger multiple rocket launchers on their bows, with heat seeking warheads that were especially effective against aircraft, structures and armor. The second weapon were depth charges, designed to counter enemy submarines.

The destroyers were slowly phased out as gunboats were upgraded and gradually took over their role of close fire support.
