Awaken the Swarm!!!
The Destroyer is the main workhorse of the Allied Navy. Tougher and bigger than the Gunboat or Dolphin. Equipped with the more powerful 155mm Cannon to fend off against Enemy Ships and Coastal Bases. The Destroyer also comes mounted with the V-22 Osprey on its back. The Osprey is equipped with depth charges which it can use to take out submerged targets aided by the Destroyer's Sonar Equipment.
Is the only difference the coloration of Osprey or something else was changed too?
Destroyer:
Heavy Retexture. The gun is stylized to look like a mini Grand Cannon. It has an anchor on the front as well now and the details are all less messy.
Osprey:
Recolored and Added Rotor. Overall mostly the same with Destroyer.
The unfortunate flaw of the Destroyer's Osprey (at least in vanilla gameplay), is that if a Soviet player has Sea Scorpions escorting their Typhoon Attack Subs, then the Osprey is basically unable to ever touch the Attack Subs (The Osprey is basically dead the moment it can be targeted by the Sea Scorpions).
This leaves forced targeting with other units as the only other solution to Attack Subs.
