Siren-class Destroyer

Class Overview
Equipped with two light magnetic accelerator cannons the Siren-class Destroyer at 550m long is the small yet deadly agent within the BDASC. By 2558 the BDA had bolstered its space command's fleets with a total of eight Siren-class Destroyers. The Siren equipped with two MAC's does not spare as much room for missiles as the Cyclops reserves and thus the two work well in tandem.

Typically a destroyer will not operate without at least two Cyclops-class Missile frigates as security escorts. This offers the greatest opportunity for its MAC's to effect the enemy ships with a quick barrage of missile power close behind.

When working closely and in unison, a Siren and Cyclops pack can take down heavy opposition with minimal casualties. The thick titanium-composite armor allows the Siren to absorb a good deal of plasma fire before its hull bubbles over and this feature is invaluable with the lack of ship-board energy shielding aboard. For this purpose its two main MAC's are heavily shielded in the thickest region of hull plating on the vessel in order to preserve their operationality throughout a battle.

Siren-class Destroyers are the second most abundant vessel within the BDA fleet and the second most costly thanks to their twin MACs.
