The '''''Anlace''-class light frigate''' is a class of [[frigate]] in service with the [[UNSC Navy]].{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}{{Ref/Reuse|wf38}}{{Ref/Reuse|SOR13}}{{Ref/Site|Id=CFCalm|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/calm-in-the-storm|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Canon Fodder - Calm in the Storm|D=09|M=3|Y=2021}}


==Overview==
The '''''Anlace''-class frigate''' is a [[United Nations Space Command]] class of [[UNSC frigate|frigate]] in service with the [[UNSC Navy]].<ref name="wf38"/>
===Design details===
[[File:H5G MainMenu Fleet.jpg|thumb|left|250px|''Anlace''-class frigates escorting the ''Infinity'' over [[Kamchatka]].{{Ref/Reuse|CFCalm}}]]
The ''Anlace''-class' design is considered somewhat novel for the [[UNSC Navy]], with a lifting body hull and maneuvering systems well adapted for atmospheric operations.{{Ref/Reuse|CFCalm}} The ''Anlace''-class frigate is the smallest [[frigate]] currently in service with the UNSC Navy, with a length of 372 meters (1,220 feet) - only just barely outclassing the larger classifications of [[UNSC corvette]]s such as the {{Class|Lancer|fast-attack corvette}} at 341 metres.{{Ref/Reuse|osfm}}


Outside of physical combat, the ''Anlace'' is specialised for support roles in the fleet and can be fitted with numerous modular mission packs. These include refits intended for reconnaissance or disruption.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} When equipped with an [[electronic warfare]] (EW) suite, ''Anlace'' frigates can mask a UNSC presence or inhibit communication between enemy ships.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} When employed in pairs, two ''Anlace''-class frigates are capable of projecting a jamming blanket around an entire planet, preventing communications within this zone. The frigates are also equipped with high-definition sensors, which are able to accurately detect any object larger than a [[Warthog]] within ten light-minutes of their location.{{Ref/Novel|Id=SOR13|HSoR|Chapter=13}}{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}
==Specifications==
===Superstructure and hull===
The ''Anlace''-class' design is considered somewhat novel for the UNSC Navy, with a lifting body hull and maneuvering systems well adapted for atmospheric operations.<ref name="cits"/> It is the smallest-known frigate to date.<ref name="Loftus1"/>


===Armament===
===Armament===
Offensively, the ''Anlace''-class differs significantly from other contemporary frigate classes such as the {{Class|Strident|heavy frigate}}. Unlike such models, the Anlace lacks projectile or [[missile]]-based armaments and instead relies on [[directed energy weapon]]s for sustained combat operations between resupply.{{Ref/Reuse|CFCalm}} The frigate's primary weapon is a turreted [[Helios high-energy laser|Helios capital-scale high-energy laser]], with four additional [[Magna-320 pulse laser|Magna-320 capital-scale pulse lasers]] as a secondary outfit. The vessel is equipped with eight [[AN/SEQ-11 point-defense laser array]]s.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}
Offensively, the ''Anlace''-class lacks a spinal [[Magnetic Accelerator Cannon]]<ref>[[Archive:Spartan Games - Kenneth Peters interview]]</ref> and [[missile]] pods in the most common configuration. Instead, it relies on [[directed energy weapon]]s for sustained combat operations between resupply.<ref name="cits"/> Nevertheless, a small MAC is built atop the frigate mounted further back then on other models of frigates.<ref name="Loftus1"/>

===Creation===
In the aftermath of the [[Human-Covenant War]], hundreds of ''Anlace'' and {{Class|Strident|heavy frigate}}s are being assembled in the shipyards above [[Mars]] and [[Tribute]] to replace combat losses and engage [[Covenant remnants|remnants]] of the [[Covenant]] still occupying the [[Outer Colonies]].<ref name="wf38"/>

{{UNSCShip|Infinity}} is capable of carrying a small [[fleet]] of ten frigates of either the ''Anlance'' or ''Strident'' class in its sub-vessel bays.<ref name="wf42">''Halo: Warfleet'', p. 42-43</ref> Some ''Anlace'' frigates were deployed by the UNSC ''Infinity'' during the [[Battle of Kamchatka]] on [[2558|October 2558]].<ref name="cits"/>


{{UNSCShip|Infinity}} was capable of carrying a small [[fleet]] of ten frigates of either the ''Anlance'' or ''Strident'' class in its sub-vessel bays.{{Ref/Book|Id=wf42|HWF|Page=42-43}} Some ''Anlace'' frigates were deployed by the UNSC ''Infinity'' during the [[Battle of Kamchatka]] in [[2558|October 2558]].{{Ref/Reuse|CFCalm}} A year after the [[Created]] [[Subjugation of Earth|take over]] of [[Earth]] at least two ''Anlace'' frigates were deployed by the UNSC ''Infinity'' during [[Operation: WOLFE]], wherein they served as electronic warfare ships projecting a jamming field around [[Reach]].{{Ref/Reuse|SOR13}}
