destroyer
Fleet's swift protector
A destroyer is someone or something that causes destruction—ruins, demolishes, or brings to an end: a destroyer of dreams, the destroyer of worlds.
In naval terminology, a destroyer is a fast, maneuverable warship designed to escort larger vessels and hunt submarines.
The military sense dominates modern usage, though the general meaning remains active in literary and dramatic contexts.
