The '''''Mulsanne''-class light frigate''' is a classification of [[UNSC frigate|frigate]] employed by the [[UNSC Navy]].{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}{{Ref/Game|Id=AudioLog|HI|Audio log (Halo Infinite)#Reverie 2|Spartan Audio log|Detail=Reverie #01 - Home Away From Home}}{{Ref/Map|Id=Deadlock|HINF|Deadlock}}{{Ref/Map|Id=Highpower|HINF|Highpower}}

===Design details===

The ''Mulsanne''-class bears some superficial design similarities to the {{Class|Paris|heavy frigate}} and {{Class|Charon|light frigate}}, as opposed to the more radical departure in design style found in the similarly-[[Post-Covenant War conflicts|post-war]] frigate classes used by the UNSC (primarily the [[Strident-class heavy frigate|Strident]] and [[Anlace-class light frigate|Anlace]]). The largest difference from other similar frigate classes involves the complete lack of a lower deployment bay or cargo storage area. Additionally, the ship is more concentrated around a central frame, with the ship's [[fusion drive]]s situated relatively close to the ship's horizontal axis, rather than placed more afar like those of the ''Paris''. The wings on either side of the frigate are more skeletal in nature, rather than the bulked overlapping armour of the older frigate classes.
