UNSC Fleets usually consist of large numbers of [[Frigate]]s and [[Destroyer]]s, escorting a handful of larger [[Carrier]]s and [[Cruiser]]s. These Fleets also usually have at least one [[UNSC Prowler|Prowler]] to act as the Fleet's eyes and ears and to also serve as saboteurs. Fleets are given a simple, numerical designation. | ||
Similar to the Covenant Fleet, UNSC warships can rely on Phoenix Class Colony Ships for ammo, repairs and food. This allowed the fleets to maintain themselves for a very long period of time. And since fights against the Covenant can be extremely resource exhaustive, due to the added layer of shields in the Covenant's defenses, being under a constant supply stream is an imperative tactic. | Similar to the Covenant Fleet, UNSC warships can rely on Phoenix Class Colony Ships for ammo, repairs and food.

Unlike in the [[UNSC]], Covenant Fleets are dominated by larger, more powerful ships. Covenant Frigates are common in smaller Fleets, however, there are usually far more Destroyers and Cruisers suited for [[glassing]] and orbital bombardment. Covenant Fleets are essentially self-sustaining Armadas, capable of operating without supply for indefinite periods thanks to their use of [[Agricultural Support Ship | Unlike in the [[UNSC]], Covenant Fleets are dominated by larger, more powerful ships.

Covenant Fleets are essentially self-sustaining Armadas, capable of operating without supply for indefinite periods thanks to their use of [[Agricultural Support Ship]]s. They are also given different designations, like ships. Covenant Large Fleets typically contain thousands of ships, most of them CCS-Battlecruisers and groups of Assault Carriers. | ||
