As under the hegemony's reign, the {{Pattern|Karo'etba|Ghost}} and {{Pattern|Zurdo|Wraith}} were the mainstays of Jul 'Mdama's Covenant's vehicular ground forces as well as the {{Pattern|Karo'wark|Ghost}} and {{Pattern|Kemu|Wraith}}. The {{Pattern|Ogab'd|anti-aircraft Wraith}} was used in relatively small numbers. The [[Type-26 Banshee|T-26B Banshee]] and {{Pattern|D'nomlhe|Banshee}} were the organization's primary ground support aircraft; modifications to the T-26B and T-54 allowed them to serve in a limited exoatmospheric scouting capacity akin to the purpose-built {{Pattern|Elsedda|Banshee}},{{Ref/Reuse|Guardians2}}{{Ref/Book|H4EVG|Page=119}} though the [[Type-31 Seraph|Seraph]] remained the primary space fighter in 'Mdama's Covenant. The {{Pattern|Ru'swum|Phantom}} had become primary dropship in 'Mdama's Covenant. Though by October 2558 the {{Pattern|Mikpramu|Phantom}} had seemingly replaced the Type-44 Phantom. The {{Pattern|Dextro Xur|Spirit}} and {{Pattern|R'shwupa|Phantom}} were both used, but not in the same numbers as the T-44 and T-57 Phantoms. The {{Pattern|Nuro'k Xur|Spirit}} was also common by October 2558.{{Ref/Reuse|Guardians2}} The {{Pattern|Kmiro'sish|Lich}} provided ultra-heavy transport capability when needed. The faction also frequently used the {{Pattern|Gloto|Breaching Carapace}},{{Ref/Book|Id=H4EVGCDropPod|H4EVG|Section=Vehicles, Non-human|Page=121 (Covenant Drop Pod)}} the [[Covenant drop pod#Multiple-occupant pod|Type-53 Squad Breaching Carapace]], and the {{Pattern|Gloto'kas|Assault Carapace}} to deploy troops from orbit. 'Mdama's forces used the {{Pattern|Rizsheda|Shade}}, {{Pattern|Mamua'uda|Shade}}, {{Pattern|Shuku|sentry turret}}s, {{Pattern|Sho'riru|Shade}}, and {{Pattern|Upisa'weri|Shrike}} for static defense, along with an unclassified type of [[Ra'aam-pattern burst cannon|stationary artillery]] and {{Pattern|Cheru|Tyrant}}s.

The faction's armada was composed of vessels formerly used by the Covenant hegemony.

The ''CRS'' filled much the same role within the new Covenant's fleet as the ''CCS'' played during the war, though it is much smaller and less powerful than the latter. In addition to these staple ship types, a number of other vessels had augmented the faction's fleet on different occasions.{{Ref/Reuse|Have S'moa}} During Gek 'Lhar's time spent [[salvager|salvaging]] and pillaging for Jul 'Mdama, he commanded a [[war-freighter]].{{Ref/Novel|SaS}} | ||
Unlike those of the original Covenant, much of the hardware utilized by the group bore green-glowing lights, as opposed to white, blue, or purple lighting. This difference may be have been for a number of reasons, as the lighting on Covenant ships and equipment is known to vary based on factors such as the manufacturer, the era of production, and a commander's personal preference.<ref>[https://blogs.halowaypoint.com/en-us/blogs/headlines/posts/the-halo-bulletin-4-16-14 ''Halo Waypoint'': ''The Halo Bulletin: 4.16.14'']</ref> | Unlike those of the original Covenant, much of the hardware utilized by the group bore green-glowing lights, as opposed to white, blue, or purple lighting.
