The YSS-1000 is a space-based fighter, which can be launched vertically from a ground-based launch platforms using a system of [[List of "seven" references in Halo|seven]]-stage detachable rockets to propel itself out of a planet's atmosphere into low orbit<ref>'''[[Halo: Reach Official Strategy Guide]]''', page 437</ref><ref name="e3"/> without the use of asynchronous linear-induction or nuclear technology.<ref name="Waypoint"/> The Sabre's speed is similar to the [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] [[Type-31 Exoatmospheric Multi-role Fighter|Seraph's]]; it also has an afterburner system which can be used to increase its speed. The Sabre is capable of performing complex [[wikipedia:Aileron roll|aileron rolls]], [[Wikipedia:Split S|Split S]] maneuvers, and [[Wikipedia:Immelmann turn|Immelmann turns]]. | The YSS-1000 is a space-based fighter, which can be launched vertically from a ground-based launch platforms using a system of [[List of "seven" references in Halo|seven]]-stage detachable rockets to propel itself out of a planet's atmosphere into low orbit<ref>'''[[Halo: Reach Official Strategy Guide]]''', page 437</ref><ref name="e3"/> without the use of asynchronous linear-induction or nuclear technology.<ref name="Waypoint"/> The Sabre's speed is similar to the [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] [[Type-31 Exoatmospheric Multi-role Fighter|Seraph's]]; it also has an afterburner system which can be used to increase its speed.

{{Conjecturalization}}The actual measured size of a Sabre is never given. We can assume it is smaller than a [[Pelican]] because in Halo: Reach; Mission: Long Night of Solace, we can see in one of the cutscenes (after defending [[Anchor 9]]) that the two vehicles are roughly the same width, but significantly less in length. The hight would maybe be somewhere around 2-3 meters.{{Conjecturalization End}} | |||
