Carrier is a capital warship classification within the UNSC Navy.
Armament
UNSC carriers are armed with a single Magnetic Accelerator Cannon, 300 Archer missiles, and two fusion rockets. They carry large numbers of Longsword interceptors, as well as numerous Pelican dropships, as fits their role as carriers. They also transport contingents of Marines and Orbital Drop Shock Troopers and likely transport vehicles for the UNSC ground forces.
Size
UNSC carriers are almost three kilometers long,[1] nearly the length of a Covenant Reverence-class cruiser.[2] This makes them one of the largest ships used by the UNSC Navy.
