[[File:Halo Legends - Origins II - EarlyShips.png|thumb|left|250px|Some early frigate designs over [[Earth]].]]
During the [[Human-Covenant War]], UNSC frigates were barely considered a match for even the smallest of Covenant warships. Their armor was susceptible to enemy point-defense [[Pulse laser turret|pulse lasers]] and [[Plasma turret|plasma torpedoes]], and it is outfitted with substandard weaponry. Only ''en masse'' did the UNSC frigate give any UNSC fleet element an advantage against even inferior numbers of Covenant [[capital ship]]s. By 2552, UNSC frigates designs became more technologically advanced as seen with both the [[Strident-class heavy frigate]] and the [[Anlace-class frigate]].
