I've seen a lot of posts about possible improvements to the neglected destroyer class. I love a lot of the ideas that have come forward(removing the ROF penalty, smaller sig radius, etc). In addition to these though, there's another direction I think destroyers could go.
I would propose that the destroyer gain the ability to mount ganglink mods and maybe even receive a bonus to those mods.
It seems to me that the popular frigate gang doesn't currently really have an option for gang link bonuses while maintaining the full mobility that's really their strength. While they are of course free to bring along a battle cruiser, it seems unlikely that a gang composed of frigates would sacrifice that mobility for the sake of a gang link. Being as it is a smaller ship the destroyer could fulfill this role.
Obviously, this buff is not mutually exclusive of any of the other proposals for improvement and should be taken as an addition rather than an alternative to any of them.

+1 For once, a sensible suggestion. This would make Destroyers great.

Excellent idea, I've always thought that destroyers should be to frigates what battlecruisers are to cruisers (heavier and command module enabled!)

I'm half and half on this.
I do think Destroyers lack a role in most fleet's, but a gang role just dosen't make sense to me.
What is to stopping you from having a BC do it really? It just has to be in system it dosen't have to fight so you don't have to wait on it to align. unless your jumping gate's at which point just make him FC and he'll be right on time with aligns and warping the fleet.
I really have no real role improvement for a destroyer but some suggestions. A tech II or navy issue destroyer would be cool. Yes i know interdictors are tech II destroyers but they are such a diffrent role it's not even funny. Mabey A Tackler role both web and scram ablity. Or a EWAR role for damp's I'll go along with your idea since i can't think of a better one. yes they need buffed up.
Unless they made a tech II BC that was made for frigate warfare and had a supper fast align time. then you could have your fleet booster. one HAC would have to be able to kill it tho only fair.
