The '''''Morsam''-pattern Heavy Strike Fighter''' {{Type|31|Exoatmospheric Multirole Fighter}},{{Ref/Reuse|evg}} was one of the main [[Design pattern|production models]] of the [[Covenant]]'s [[Seraph]] [[space fighter]]s, alongside the older [[Kai-pattern Seraph]].{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} Formerly manufactured and produced by [[Assembly Forges]], the Seraph is the successor to the older [[Keljiric-pattern Tarasque|''Tarasque''-class heavy fighter]]. It is a more powerful, though less common counterpart to the unshielded and expendable {{Pattern|Elsedda|Banshee}}.{{Ref/Game|HR|Halo: Reach manua|game manual}}


==Overview==
The '''Type-31 Exoatmospheric Multirole Fighter''',<ref>[http://halo.xbox.com/en-us/intel/theuniverse/tech/ '''Halo Waypoint''': ''The Universe - Tech'']</ref> more commonly known as the '''Seraph''', was the [[Covenant]]'s primary [[space fighter]].<ref>'''Halo: Reach''': ''Game Stats''</ref> Formerly manufactured and produced by [[Assembly Forges]], the Seraph is the successor to the older [[Tarasque heavy fighter|''Tarasque''-class heavy fighter]].

===Design details===
===Design details===
The Seraph features a piscine, teardrop-like shape, fitting with the overall design elegance the [[Covenant]] is known for. Seraph fighters are mostly stored in the [[hangar bay]]s of Covenant ships or stations when they are not in battle or escorting a ship. ''Morsam''-pattern Seraphs have two movable flaps on either side of their hull, and their twin "tails" are articulated to aid with directing exhaust. These features give the Seraph superior turning capabilities in zero-gravity environments. Despite their efficiency and speed in space, Seraph fighters are graceless and sluggish in atmospheric conditions due to their odd teardrop-like shape. Seraphs fill a variety of roles in a [[Covenant fleet]], such as a strike fighter or for ship-to-ship combat in dogfights.{{Ref/Site|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/detail/82613d70-17cc-4652-8ab1-a1f16e29c516/banshee-fighter|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Banshee Fighter|D=30|M=01|Y=2013}} Seraphs can also be used for the occasional bombing run.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc11}}

As the Covenant's main space-based attack fighter, the Seraph is highly maneuverable while in space, and can easily keep pace with the [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]]'s [[GA-TL1 Longsword]].{{Ref/Reuse|Enc11}}
As the Covenant's main space-based attack fighter, the Seraph is highly maneuverable while in space, and can easily keep pace with the [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]]'s [[GA-TL1 Longsword]].<ref name="enc283"/> Though not specifically intended for atmospheric use, Seraphs still are significantly faster than Banshees while flying at low altitudes. They have even been shown to fly in the hurricane force winds of the gas giant [[Threshold]].<ref name="oracle">'''[[Halo 2]]''', campaign level ''[[The Oracle]]''</ref> Seraphs are controlled via a direct neural interface with their flight harness, using minimal safety cutouts and filters. While the pilot's body is rendered immobile to reduce the risk of injury, they control the ship with their thought, much the same way as a UNSC pilot's neural interface.<ref name="warfleet"/> Unlike UNSC systems, however, this method induces significant pain called interface burn in the pilot. Elites enter a meditative state before they complete an uplink to control the pain, while Brute pilots embrace the pain to trigger their own focus.<ref name="warfleet"/>


===Armaments===
===Armaments===
Seraphs have demonstrated that they are a very effective counter-weapon against Longsword interceptors unless the latter attacks from the side or behind. Seraphs usually attack in formations of ten, their assaults on enemy ships range from simple harassment to full-out strafing attacks. They have also been seen patrolling in pairs. It is assumed that Seraph fighters can be piloted by a single [[Sangheili]] or [[Jiralhanae]].{{Ref/Reuse|Enc11}}

The Seraph is armed with a variety of weapons. Seraphs are seen firing multiple heavy plasma cannons and are also armed with fuel rod cannons and plasma charges for strafing and bombing runs.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc11}} The Seraph's four fuel rod cannons are also capable of locking onto air targets.{{Ref/Reuse|forge}} The plasma charge's flames are 3,000 degrees.{{Ref/Reuse|HGoO}}
The Seraph is armed with a variety of weapons. Seraphs are seen firing a heavy plasma cannon, and are also armed with a pulse laser and plasma charges for strafing and bombing runs.<ref name="enc283"/> A Seraph's bombing runs are very deadly, as evidenced in [[Operation: TORPEDO]], the [[SPARTAN-III program|SPARTAN-III]] [[SPARTAN-III Beta Company|Beta Company]]'s attack on a Covenant refinery on [[Pegasi Delta]].<ref name="ghosts"/> The Seraph's energy weapons deliver a hard punch to anything it attacks, such as [[D77-TC Pelican]] [[dropship]]s,<ref>'''[[Halo: First Strike]]''', ''pages 8-9'' (2003 edition); ''pages 18-19'' (2010 edition)</ref> and when dueling with the UNSC space-superiority [[YSS-1000 Sabre]]s.<ref name="lnos">'''Halo: Reach''', campaign level ''[[Long Night of Solace (level)|Long Night of Solace]]''</ref> A Seraph was also capable of doing some damage against a {{Class|Halcyon|light cruiser}}'s [[Titanium-A armor]] plating.<ref name="flood12"/>


==Operational history==
==Operational history==
During the [[Fall of Reach]], the Seraphs attempted to disable the UNSC ships and orbital stations over the planet [[Reach]], while providing some cover for the Covenant boarding crews. These attempts were subsequently prevented by UNSC [[FSS-1000 Sabre|''Sabre''-class interceptors]], [[UNSC frigate|frigates]], and Longsword interceptors.{{Ref/Level|Id=lnos|HR|Long Night of Solace (level)|Long Night of Solace}}
Seraphs have seen operational use as early as the [[Harvest campaign]]. They are a common adversary of the Longsword fighters. These starfighters provided excellent fire support to all Covenant forces in space and on the groundside. Elite pilots considered piloting a Seraph merely a means to attain enough glory to be reassigned to a ground combat position, valuing their fighters only as tools to accomplish this. Despite their extensive training, their honor code gave them a tendency to peel off from their squadrons to engage in one-on-one dogfights, making them vulnerable in combat. Brute pilots were excluded from such training, but their pack mentality and rigid social hierarchy made them far more effective teams, and human pilots soon learned to fear Brute-piloted Seraphs, identifiable by clan markings and Forerunner symbols carved on their hulls, more than Elite-piloted Seraphs.<ref name="warfleet"/>
 
Seraphs were prominently used during [[Operation: WARM BLANKET]],<ref name="package"/> the [[Fall of Reach]],<ref name="For"/> the [[Battle of Earth]],<ref>'''Halo 2''', campaign level ''[[Cairo Station (level)|Cairo Station]]''</ref> the [[Onyx Conflict]], and the [[Battle of Installation 00]]. In [[Operation: TORPEDO]], the Seraphs harassed the incoming [[SPARTAN-III program|SPARTAN-III]]s by bombarding them during the UNSC surprise assault of the Covenant refinery facilities. Several fighters were shot down by missiles fired from the [[M19-B surface-to-air missile launcher]]s used by the SPARTAN-IIIs.<ref name="ghosts"/>

These attempts were subsequently prevented by UNSC [[YSS-1000 Sabre|''Sabre''-class interceptors]], [[UNSC frigate|frigates]], and Longsword interceptors.<ref name="lnos"/> Similar tactics were also employed during the [[Battle of Earth]].


During the [[Battle over Installation 04|opening stages]] of the [[Battle of Installation 04|Battle of]] [[Installation 04]], as the {{UNSCShip|Pillar of Autumn}} was boarded by [[Covenant]] [[Covenant military|forces]] of the [[Fleet of Particular Justice]], Seraph fighters, as well as {{Pattern|Elsedda|Banshee}} were deployed to attack the UNSC cruiser. The [[ODSTs]] of [[Fireteam Raven]] managed to activate the vessel's [[M910 Rampart point defense network]], inflicting heavy casualties on the attacking Seraphs and Banshees.{{Ref/Level|HFR|Escape (Halo: Fireteam Raven level)|Escape}}
During the [[Battle of the Threshold gas mine]], [[Sesa 'Refumee]] tried to escape on a Seraph but was killed by [[Arbiter]] [[Thel 'Vadam]] before he could.<ref name="oracle"/>


During the [[Skirmish over Threshold]], the [[Covenant]] {{Pattern|Ruma|light carrier}} ''[[Ascendant Justice]]'' deployed Seraphs to stop the approach of the [[GA-TL1 Longsword|Longsword]] fighter commanded by [[John-117]]. However, John and his makeshift crew sent a remote-piloted [[D77-TC Pelican|Pelican dropship]] with [[M1011 Moray space mine]]s attached ahead of them. Though the dropship was destroyed, the mines detached and destroyed the Seraph squadron, allowing the Longsword to land safely in ''Ascendant Justice's'' hanger bay.{{Ref/Novel|FS|6}}
During the [[Battle of Installation 00]], the Prophet of Truth's fleet deployed numerous Seraphs against the UNSC/Sangheili fleet in an effort to stop them from landing ground forces on the Ark. The Seraphs shot down a few Pelicans, but could not stop the others from breaking through.<ref>'''[[Halo 3]]''', campaign level ''[[The Ark (level)|The Ark]]''</ref> The Seraphs were presumably destroyed along with the rest of the Covenant fleet.


Following the end of the Human-Covenant War, ''Mosam''-pattern Seraphs were adopted by numerous Covenant remnant factions. On [[2558|February 7, 2558]], when the {{UNSCShip|Infinity}} returned to the shield world [[Requiem]] to [[Requiem Campaign|engage]] the local [[Promethean]] forces, numerous Seraphs belonging to [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant]] were deployed around Requiem to prevent the humans from gaining entrance. These Seraphs attacked ''Infinity'' and the Pelicans it deployed to the surface, but were repelled by a squadron of [[F-41 Broadsword]] strike fighters.{{Ref/SpOps|Departure}} Several Seraphs from [[Jul 'Mdama]]'s Covenant attacked ''Infinity'' during the [[Battle of Aktis IV]].{{Ref/Comic|HEsc|Issue=15}} Several wings saw action on both sides during the [[Battle of Sunaion]].{{Ref/Level|H5|Battle of Sunaion (level)|Battle of Sunaion}} In October [[2559]], the [[Banished]] and [[Castor]]'s [[Keepers of the One Freedom]] forces employed ''Morsam''-pattern Seraphs on [[Reach]].{{Ref/Novel|SOR|7}}{{Ref/Novel|SOR|cover art}} Banished Seraphs were present during [[Battle over Installation 07|the opening space battle]] of the [[Battle for Zeta Halo]].{{Ref/Novel|TRP|1}}

In ''[[Long Night of Solace (level)|Long Night of Solace]]'', there is a [[Pilotable Seraph|glitch]] that makes it possible to hit a Seraph with an EMP shot from a [[Type-25 plasma pistol|plasma pistol]] and hijack it.<ref>[http://halo.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=news&cid=29802 ''Bungie.net'': How To Fly the Seraph - Tutorial]</ref> With the [[Forge/Halo: Reach#Changes for Halo: The Master Chief Collection|Forge update]] given to ''Halo: Reach'' as part of its inclusion in ''[[Halo: The Master Chief Collection]]'', the Seraph was added to the [[Forge]] inventories of [[Forge World]] and [[Tempest]].

==Trivia==
{{Main|Halo: Fleet Battles}}
{{Linkbox|gallery=yes|gallerypage=Images of Type-31 Seraphs}}
====Covenant Seraph Interceptor Flight====
*The Seraph is actually an old model of a Covenant tank that [[Shi Kai Wang]] created.<ref>'''Halo 3''', ''Collector's Edition Behind-the-Scenes''</ref>
*Instead of having a name that represents a sinister supernatural being like the [[Type-25 Wraith|Wraith]] or [[Type-52 Phantom|Phantom]], the word "[[Wikipedia:Seraph|Seraph]]" is derived from the highest level of angels as described in certain texts of the Bible. However, Biblical seraphim have six wings while the Type-31 XMF has none.
*''Halo 2'' and ''Halo 3'' use identical Seraph models. Similarly, ''Halo 4'' seems to reuse the model from ''Halo: Reach'', though with improved textures. The former model is smaller than the latter, the dimensions of which have been established in canon.<ref name="HTEVG"/> The original model's dimensions are L: 23.85m (78.26ft), W: 15.93m (52.27ft), H: 5.35m (17.56ft).<ref>'''Idem''', ''in-game model data''</ref>
*In the ''Halo: Reach'' post-game stats, the Seraph icon is erroneously represented by the image of a Sabre. On [[Halo Waypoint]], the image is that of a regular [[Type-26 Banshee]]. On [[Bungie.net]], the correct image of a Seraph is shown.
*In the same level, there is a [[Pilotable Seraph|glitch]] that makes it possible to hit a Seraph with an EMP shot from a [[Type-25 plasma pistol|plasma pistol]] and hijack it.<ref>[http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=news&cid=29802 '''Bungie.net''': ''How To Fly the Seraph - Tutorial'']</ref>
*In the ''Halo Legends'' episode ''The Package'', when [[Kelly-087]] yells ''"Seraph formation!"'', the subtitles mistakenly say, ''"Syrup formation!"''
