Destroyers were a pivotal part of the Krill military. A destroyer engaged enemy ships in direct combat, and its bombing capabilities made the ship the ideal choice to attack colony planets from space. Yet destroyers were more than simple attack ships: the Krill designed them to host entire families, providing living arrangements, religious sanctuaries, and classrooms for children. The destroyer was the largest known vessel type of the Krill, equivalent to Leviathan-class vessels of the Planetary Union.
