During the [[Human-Covenant War]], corvettes were utilized by the Covenant in front-line combat roles as well as long-range reconnaissance of potential [[Covenant fleet|naval]] staging areas and colonies. The relatively small size of Covenant corvettes, as well as their maneuverability and low sensor signature, allow them to remain undetected except at close range. | The '''corvette''' is a [[warship]] classification that was used by the [[Covenant]], before the empire's collapse in [[2552]]. The Covenant employed corvettes for a wide array of functions. Historically, they were often responsible for surveying [[Forerunner]] artifact sites and for the deployment of small artifact-retrieval teams to elude any local defensive measures.<ref name="universe"/> | ||
