A Hunter class destroyer

The Space Marine Hunter class destroyer is designed to fulfil the role of the Cobra Class Destroyer of the Imperial Navy. Although available to all space marine chapters, the class is mainly used by the Dark Angels, due to their distrust of other sections of the Imperial hierarchy. The Dark Angels maintain large flotillas of Hunter class ships within their battlefleets.1

The Hunter class is armed similarly to the Cobra, but is a little faster, allowing it to react quickly to openings the enemy provides. The same shield and turret array complement is fitted on a Hunter class, as is seen on the Cobra class. It is also more heavily armoured than a Cobra, providing it with a little more survivability in a combat situation.1

The Adeptus Astartes do not name their squadrons, therefore there are no famous ones.1
