A '''tug''' is a type of spacecraft designed to tow or otherwise move other vessels. This may be done for repairs or other reasons, such as maneuvering a larger craft in a tight space. They are often small vessels, either designed for sublight maneuvering, or to give otherwise sublight-only vessels a [[slipspace]] capability, such as in the case of the [[propulsion pod]]s used to move [[DCS light freighter|DCS freighters]]. Examples of human craft used as tugs include the {{Class|Behemoth|tug}}<ref>'''[[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]]''', ''page 155''</ref> and the {{Class|Bactrian|freighter}}.<ref>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/vehicles/allerian-tug '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Colonial Tug'']</ref> The [[Covenant]] are known to use [[Covenant tug|U-shaped tugs]] to tow damaged ships.<ref>'''[[Halo: First Strike]]''', ''page 300''</ref> | A '''tug''' is a type of spacecraft designed to tow or otherwise move other vessels.
