| The '''''Mako''-class corvette''' was a classification of [[UNSC corvette|corvette]] employed by the naval forces of both the [[Colonial Military Authority]] and [[United Nations Space Command]], among other [[human]] military groups.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} | |
| | |
| ==Overview==
| |
| ===Design details===
| |
| The ''Mako'' measured only {{Convert|532|ft|m|disp=flip}} in length, and massed in at a total mass of {{Convert|28000|MT}}.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} ''Mako''-class ships were generally well-regarded (in no small part due to their small size{{Ref/Reuse|enc}}), but hated by shipyard personnel due to numerous maintenance issues.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}
| |
| | |
| ===Armaments===
| |
| The ''Mako''-class was lightly armed, featuring two Mark 40 [[Castor naval coilgun]]s and two M42 [[Archer missile]] pods for anti-ship combat. For defence, it was equipped with two [[M870 Rampart point defense gun]]s.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}

| ==Operational history==
| |
| The ''Mako''-class entered service in [[2388]], and rapidly became one of the most ubiquitous examples of the corvette role throughout [[Human colonies|human space]]. During its long career, the ''Mako'' was used by many military organisations including the [[UNSC Navy]], [[CMA Navy]] and other security forces throughout the [[Sol system]] and extrasolar colonies.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} The ''Mako''{{'}}s maintenance issues would eventually gain it infamy in the shipyards where it was serviced, ultimately leading to the UNSC Navy choosing to retire it in the early stages of the [[Human-Covenant War]].{{Ref/Book|Id=enc|Enc11|Page=259}}{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} Most surviving examples were pushed into rear second-line defensive fleets for the duration of the war.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}

| By [[2525]], several such corvettes had fallen into the [[Insurrectionist#Eridanus cell|Eridanus rebels]] at their asteroid base of [[Eridanus Secundus]] - used by the rebels as part of their improvised fleet.{{Ref/Reuse|for}}{{Ref/Novel|Id=for|FoR|Chapter=10}}
| | Several of such corvettes were at the rebel asteroid base over [[Eridanus Secundus]], used by the rebels as part of their improvised fleet. Others were at the disastrous [[Battle of Reach]] and the ongoing [[Second Battle of Earth]]. |
|
| |
|
| One ''Mako''-class, the {{UNSCShip|Pony Express}}, was still in service with the UNSC as late as [[2552]].{{Ref/Novel|GoO|Chapter=24}}
| | These corvettes, according to [[Cortana]], were some of the fastest UNSC warships. |
