'''TR steel alloy''' is a type of [[steel]] used by the [[UNSC]] for large [[warship]]s.
==Overview==
== Background ==
===Properties===
TR steel alloy is used to build the superstructure of the ship before it is plated with [[vanadium steel]] and, eventually, [[Titanium-A armor|Titanium-A]] battleplate.
TR steel alloy turned from silver to white when exposed to solar radiation.{{Ref/Reuse|HGOOC3}}


A curious feature of TR steel alloy is that, as it is exposed to solar radiation over time, it gradually turns from silver to white. It is easy to tell a ship's age by the color of the TR steel in its superstructure.<ref>'''[[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]]''', ''page 52''</ref>
===Usage===
TR steel alloy is used for the skeletal frame of ships. It is silver when used for new constructions. [[Construction Platform 966A]] used the alloy to create ships.{{Ref/Reuse|HGOOC3}}
 
==History==
===Construction Platform 966A===
Around [[2531#November|November 7, 2531]], Construction Platform 966A used the alloy to create a stealth ship around three times the size of a prowler. By November 7, 2531, during an mission to the Platform, [[Blue Team]] encountered a partially made stealth ship in a hull-support cradle made for it.{{Ref/Reuse|HGOOC3}}
