The destroyer is a very balanced ship, imho, but i feel that their air defense is some unfair compared to the rest of the ships, except corvettes.
Obviously, frigates are the anti air premier ship and it is ok, the Cruiser have ranged anti air and is quite fair, but destroyers have only point defense. Even Carriers have better Anti air!
So, i think that Destroyers must have ranged anti air. I think that attack HP is ok, but i think it must have a range of maximum 50 for Anti air, maybe it could be 26 at low tiers. By this way, the frigates Will not lose it's importance, but a single stack of destroyers would be more competitive against air threats, like cruisers are, without make it overpowered.
Maybe you will say: stack frigates, and it is logic, i do it, but the frigates are so slow! It is ridiculous slow. And for other side, the destroyer, a capital ship, have the same air defense limitations than a corvette! A destroyed defended only with manpads?
Even Mobil Anti air is better than destroyers in Anti air defense!
