ASM Tornado class destroyer

(FULLY VANILLA)
________________________________________________________________________________

The Tornado class destroyer was designed to reinforce the destroyer role of a long range attack ship in the Aegis Systems Military fleets. Sacrificing close quarters weapons and some armor, the Tornado is lighter than the Ventisca class, but mounts 6 guided missile launchers and is a more agile and cheap ship without sacrificing its battle capacities.

The ship has been designed for a small frontal profile, following the ASM doctrine of a heavy prow and frontal attacks. All weapons can and should fire forwards while decoys in the prow distract enemy fire. However the ship is meant to engage at long ranges, using its guided weapons and surprise to deal critical blows against unsuspecting enemies.

Also mounting the largest hangar in any destroyer class ship to date, the Tornado can load several support craft that allow for long range operations and self maintenance; or supply several fighter craft for additional firepower and flexibility. Sometimes this hangar has been replaced for other utilities, like extra cargo space, additional refineries, drop pod launchers, etc.
