''RCS''-class armored cruisers served in the [[Covenant]]'s [[Covenant fleet|fleet]] for centuries as the empire's primary "missionary and compliance" [[warship]], having allegedly been in service when [[human]]ity was just making its first long-distance ocean voyages. However, the class was eventually supplanted by the more refined {{Class|CCS|battlecruiser}}. Many cruisers of the ''RCS'' class were broken down into feedstock for [[High Charity]]'s [[Assembly Forges]], being reformed and remade into new ships, vehicles, and armor to equip the [[Covenant military]]. The remaining vessels of this class were left as reserve vessels in the [[fleet]]s of important Covenant colonies or transferred to distant reserve fleets to take on various utilitarian roles.<ref name="canon fodder armory">[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/community/blog-posts/canon-fodder-armory-amore '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Canon Fodder - Armory Amore'']</ref>

The ''RCS''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s use during the [[Human-Covenant War]] was largely overshadowed by the ''CCS''-class battlecruiser, the mainstay of the fleet.<ref name="H4EVG"/> It is believed that the 13 Covenant Heavy Cruisers that remained at Reach after the battle were RCS Cruisers, due to the nature of the role they were doing, which was occupation/patrol, which is what this class of ship is known for(Add Citation). At the dawn of the [[Great Schism]], many armored cruisers played an important role in many [[Covenant remnants|remnant factions]] of the Covenant Empire.<ref name="universe"/> Following the end of the war, many surviving battlecruisers were commandeered by [[Kig-Yar]] scavengers or independent [[Sangheili]] factions.
