:It is possible that reactor's armor is inside ship - for comparision, most WW2 battleships (save for Bismarcks) had armoured 'citadel' that was more armoured than any other part of ship. Citadel, however, protected only ship's vitals - ammunition magazines, engine rooms and similar areas which, if hit, could critically damage/destroy ship. (That's why Bismarck proved to be more difficult to sink than any other new battleship - it was protected all over.) Althought, it seems that PoW was sunk by lucky torpedo hit at propeller which made shaft 'jump out' and tear holes throught ship's hull and several bulkheads it passed throught. What I was trying to tell, it could be two reasons - 1) gameplay or 2) Covenant ships relied on shields for protecting hull and had vitals protected by inner armor, much like Iowa's inside armor belt.

==Hanger Bays==
Ive seen tons of references to the "gargantuan" hanger bay on the assault carrier, but where is it? I assumed at first that this was the grav lift, and that all the fighters and drop ships came through there, but in halo 3 the ''Forward unto dawn'' is transported inside of this hanger, and the grav lift hole doesnt seem big enough for the frigate to pass through. After that i assumed that it was located between the two prongs, on the main body of the ship. But this part has 10 blue and black spikes coming out of it, and when i took a closer look (with pan cam on heretic) there was no hole for the ships, there was a wall there instead. this has confused me to high hell, at this point i have no idea where the fighters, drop ship or even the scarabs unload. i know that there are 9 secondary hangers (4 on either side, similar to a ccs battlecruiser. also the large hanger only present in halo 3 and halo 3: odst) but this last one seems to be hiding.
