It is indeed a heavy destroyer, since it got one of the BFGreens in the nose. This destroyer can easily destroy any destroyer, but when it is fighting a juggernaut, it is a different story. One of the most feared destroyers, and with the Advanced Terran Huge Turret, it can take things are out far better, from bomb to ships.

Similar warship - EACa Auriga appears in Inferno Nostos, but it's based on GTD Orion from MediaVPs and it's symmetrical.
