* {{icon|gallente2|22}}[[Catalyst]]: Bonuses to tracking and turret falloff range; possibly the best salvaging destroyer, and certainly the one with the highest potential cargo hold after accounting for rigs and expanders. When fitted with blasters, has one of the best DPS to cost ratios in the game, and is very popular for suicide ganking.

The only class of Tech 2 destroyer are interdictors, which are highly specialized ships used for deploying warp disruption probes (also known as "bubbles", which prevent ships inside them from warping away). They are based on the four turret destroyer hulls, and are used almost exclusively in [[nullsec]] and [[wormhole]]s.
