| Planet-breakers were able to carry over five thousand [[Warrior-Servant]]s, an armory stocked with spare [[combat skin]]s, thousands of hand weapons and a plethora of other military devices, hundreds of [[war sphinx]]es, as well as armed scout craft and [[Forerunner picket cruiser|orbital picket cruisers]].<ref>'''Halo: Cryptum''', ''page 126''</ref> A planet-breaker also possessed a facility suited for performing [[Forerunner mutation|brevet mutations]],<ref>'''Halo: Cryptum''', ''page 146''</ref> as well as machinery required to produce [[Forerunner body armor|personal armor]].<ref>'''Halo: Cryptum''', ''page 105''</ref>

| A planet-breaker changed its overall shape and configuration depending on the situation. In spaceflight, the ship was ovoid-shaped and approximately 800 meters long.<ref name="c124">'''Halo: Cryptum''', ''page 124''</ref> When entering a planet's atmosphere, the ship would configure into a more aerodynamic shape, bowing out at the sides, growing landing pads and activating [[fluxor shield]]s to protect against the heating from atmospheric entry.<ref>'''Halo: Cryptum''', ''page 111''</ref> Only approximately half of such as ship was actual matter, one third being fuel and reaction mass and the rest being comprised of various forms of [[hard light]], allowing the captain to reconfigure the ship's layout or change the interior decor at will.{{Ref/Reuse|c124}} Instead of having actual windows, adjustable, convincing projections of the exterior could be projected to the ship's interior at will.<ref>'''Halo: Cryptum''', ''page 130, 149''</ref>
