The '''''Punic''-class supercarrier''' is a classification of capital warship built by [[SinoViet Heavy Machinery]] for use by the [[CMA Navy]] and later, the [[UNSC Navy]].{{Ref/Reuse|CFBulkhead}}{{Ref/Reuse|spartan games}} There were only a few constructed, among them the most notable vessel was {{UNSCShip|Trafalgar}}.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc09}}{{Ref/Reuse|Enc11}}{{Ref/Novel|Id=FS18|HFS|Chapter=18}}


==Overview==
The '''''Punic''-class supercarrier''' is a [[carrier]] sub-classification in service with the [[UNSC Navy]]. There were only a few constructed, among them the most notable vessel was {{UNSCShip|Trafalgar}}.<ref name="enc262"/><ref>'''[[Halo: First Strike]]''', ''page 168''</ref>
===Design details===
The supercarrier was used for direct confrontation with [[Covenant]] [[capital ship]]s, and was one of the few UNSC ships effective in this role. The armaments and armor of a ''Punic''-class supercarrier dwarf those of any other carrier in service with the UNSC Navy.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc09}}{{Ref/Reuse|Enc11}} The ''Punic'' class is one of the largest known vessels in human history, whose total length and tonnage is to date known to be superseded only by the {{UNSCShip|Infinity}}.


The ''Punic''{{'}}s main spaceframe is a blocky, rectangular, design similar in nature to the standard [[cruiser]]s of the UNSC fleet. The front of the vessel contains the barrel for the ship's [[Magnetic Accelerator Cannon]] and a hexagonal construction similar in nature to the {{Class|Halcyon|light cruiser}}, with several overlapping layers of [[Titanium-A armor]] plating extending further back into the larger, more cuboid shape that characterises the primary spaceframe.{{Ref/Reuse|Model}}
==Specifications==
The supercarrier was used for direct confrontation with [[Covenant]] [[capital ship]]s, and was one of the few UNSC ships effective in this role. The armaments and armor of a ''Punic''-class supercarrier dwarf those of any other carrier in service with the UNSC Navy.<ref name="enc262"/> The ''Punic'' class is capable of mounting [[frigate]]s or [[destroyer]]s in its ventral sub-vessel [[hangar bay]]s.<ref name="canonfodder">[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/community/blog-posts/canon-fodder-infinity-beyond '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Canon Fodder - Infinity & Beyond'']</ref>


The vessel is propelled by five [[fusion drive]]s for [[Maneuver drive|sublight propulsion]]. These include one gargantuan primary drive situated centrally on the ship's long axis, and four secondary drives surrounding it. The port and starboard sides are adorned by large wings similar in nature to those of the {{Class|Epoch|heavy carrier}} and {{Class|Phoenix|colony ship}},{{Ref/Reuse|Model}} and are each fitted with three cargo loading ports similar to those of the ''Phoenix''. These wings can be used to mount [[UNSC frigate|frigates]] or [[UNSC destroyer|destroyer]]s underneath the ship in its ventral sub-vessel [[hangar bay]]s,{{Ref/Reuse|CFInfinity}} and at least three [[D20 Heron]] heavy dropships can be mounted on the wings in a similar manner to the ''Phoenix''.{{Ref/NoteReuse|SoTP}} Ten more smaller hangars adorn both the port and starboard sides of the ship (for a total of eighteen), used for launching [[space fighter]]s and [[dropship]]s. These are divided into two rows of four hangars, and then two slightly larger individual hangars further back.{{Ref/NoteReuse|SoTP}}
==Operational history==
The ''Punic''-class supercarrier was commissioned towards the final years of the 25th century to aid the [[Unified Earth Government]] in combating the spreading [[Insurrection]]. Officially designated Space Control Vehicles, these carriers transported and sustained entire [[Colonial Military Administration]] expeditionary and interdiction campaigns throughout the more remote [[Outer Colonies]] for months at a time, as they eliminated [[insurrectionist]]s and [[Terrorism|terrorists]] before their views could fester and spread. However, when the [[Human-Covenant War]] began, all ''Punic''-class supercarriers were utilized to protect [[human colonies]] from the new [[Covenant]] threat.<ref name="spartan games"/>


===Armaments===
''Punic''-class supercarriers have participated in numerous campaigns and holding actions throughout the Human-Covenant War, including the [[UNSC]]'s last stand above [[Estuary]] and as base stations for the [[Scyllion Warehouse District riot|decisive counterinsurgency]] and [[Battle of Charybdis IX|evacuation operations]] on [[Charybdis IX]] in [[2535]]. However, despite the benefits of the powerful ships, the destruction of each supercarrier led to the loss of skilled crews and materiel that slowly decreased the [[UNSC Navy]]'s overall effectiveness. By [[2552]], the final year of the Covenant War, only a handful of ''Punic''-class supercarriers remained spaceworthy, including {{UNSCShip|Trafalgar}}, which was stationed over [[Reach]] as the [[flagship]] of the [[Epsilon Eridani Fleet]].<ref name="spartan games"/> The ''Trafalgar'' itself was lost in combat against the Covenant during the [[Fall of Reach]], further securing the Covenant's eventual victory in the engagement.
The ''Punic''{{'}}s armaments are broadly similar to those used on the successor {{Class|Infinity|supercarrier|}}. Its primary armament is a pair of a [[Magnetic Accelerator Cannon|CR-01D Series 6 Magnetic Accelerator Cannons]], with a pair of secondary [[Mark 15 Breakwater naval coilgun]]s alongside them. The ship has a massive missile complement, with one hundred [[Archer missile|M42 Archer missile]] pods, twenty [[Howler missile|M96 Howler missile]] pods, and a [[Point-defense gun|point-defence]] network consisting of 80 [[M85 Scythe]] and 100 [[M965 Fortress point defense network|M965 Fortress]] guns.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}

==Production notes==
In the core rulebook for ''[[Halo: Fleet Battles]]'', the ''Punic''-class is referred to instead as the "''Trafalgar''-class" supercarrier, in reference to then-upcoming ship models that had yet to be released for the game. This was later changed for the final release of the carrier to the ''Punic''-class name.{{Ref/Book|Halo: Fleet Battles core rulebook|Page=115|Quote=Other exciting Massive UNSC vessels include the Trafalgar-class Supercarrier, a huge vessel in comparison to other UNSC vessels, but still tiny when compared to the ''[[Long Night of Solace]]''.}} This name is in reference to UNSC ''Trafalgar''; a UNSC supercarrier first-mentioned as having taken part in the [[space engagements over Reach]] in ''[[Halo: First Strike]]''.{{Ref/Reuse|FS18}}
Alongside several other ships, the ''Punic''-class model developed for the ''Halo'' fan mod ''[[Sins of the Prophets]]'' was included in the ''[[Halo Encyclopedia (2022 edition)]]'' as part of an official collaboration between [[343 Industries]] and the ''Sins of the Prophets'' team.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} The ''Sins of the Prophets'' model demonstrates a few notable deviations from the original ''Fleet Battles'' 3D model, due to being designed for a game rather than for physical production. These differences include less overall surface "greebling", instead replaced by details such as hangar bays and wing-mounted Heron dropships.
