Humber 5.5 ID please

Hi, I am a new RIB'ber and looking into getting a 5.5m boat, I have seen a Humber 5.5 which fits the bill, but have heard, there's a model from them to completely avoid, and others are great, I think it was Assault should be avoided, and Destroyer are great. Please can someone help me ID this one from a picture?

Thanks

It’s not a Destroyer or an Assault
