Description

Redesigned model of the anti-aircraft interception Destroid Defender, used in Space War I.

While maintaining the appearance, the Destroid is updated with an excellent fire-support AI, fast and accurate target tracking performance by adopting linear actuators from AVF technology, and GRU-53 radar unit.

This second generation Destroid is far cheaper than a Variable fighter and its high rate of operation is found to be useful in emigration fleets and planets.
