Tactical Destroyers are the Tech III destroyer variant.

Tactical destroyers are very versatile ships with the ability to switch between three different modes while in space:

  • Defense Mode, which increases damage resistances and reduces signature radius (or rep cycle time, in the case of the Hecate).
  • Propulsion Mode, which increases velocity and the inertia modifier.
  • Sharpshooter Mode, which increases weapon range, weapon damage, targeting range, and sensor strength.

Note that, unlike strategic cruisers, tech 3 destroyers are not composed of subsystems, and don't lose the associated skills upon destruction.

History

Tactical destroyers were introduced in the Rhea expansion (Dec 2014), starting with the Confessor. The Svipul was released in the Tiamat expansion (Feb 2015), the Jackdaw was released in the Carnyx expansion (Jun 2015), and the Hecate was released in the Aegis expansion (July 2015).
