The Baal-class Destroyer is a destroyer classification used by the UNSC. A successor to the Halberd-class Destroyer, the Baal-class carries it's legacy, with a mixture of heavy armaments, and heavier armour. The Baal-class is used to provide Escort to larger vessels, and as a hunter-killer or heavier warships. It's main gun consists of twin MAC cannons, in a side-by-side set up, meant for firing off rounds in quick succession. It also packs numerous smaller canons for engaging enemy warships at short to mid range.
