Got a explorer\survey group going through systems far from home? Too far to put a maintenance facility nearby for a destroyer squadron? Send a Cruiser group.
What you describe is to me more like a BB\BC\DN. My destroyers, on the other hand, are UNABLE to work alone. The DL has a jump engine, but no active sensors at this tech level.
I'll toss this up in another topic so we stop hijacking.
