Editing Unidentified Covenant assault carrier class

Unlike other assault carrier classifications, this design forgoes the distinctive silver hull of its sister {{Pattern|Kerel|assault carrier|}} and {{Pattern|Syfon|assault carrier}}s for a blue-purple [[nanolaminate]] battleplate more reminiscent of regular mainline [[Covenant starship]]s. This hull is reinforced by an additional layer of matte-black armour plating trim, giving the ship a distinctive look among the ships of the Covenant fleet. The design retains the distinctive rear cowling that surrounds the after of the ship in a similar fashion to the ''Kerel''-design.{{Ref/Game|Id=Model|HR|Assault carrier in-game model}} The channels between nanolaminate plates are lined with a series of bright lights,{{Ref/Reuse|Model}} and the hull overall is reinforced with an [[Energy shielding|energy shield]] system capable of deflecting the blow of even a [[United Nations Space Command]] [[Brightlance reflex laser]] - the primary armament on the {{Class|Mulsanne|light frigate}}.{{Ref/Reuse|CFLegendary}}{{Ref/Reuse|Highpower}}

Based on other assault carrier classes in Covenant service, it is likely that the carrier's armaments consist of at least some form of [[energy projector]], [[plasma lance]]s, [[Plasma beam emitter]]s, [[plasma torpedo]]es and [[pulse laser turret]]s.

Multiple carriers of this class were used by the [[Covenant]] in [[2552]], during the final months of the [[Human-Covenant War]]. One such vessel served in the [[Second Fleet of Solemn Accord]] during the [[Battle of Sigma Octanus IV]], leading the fleet alongside a {{Pattern|Syfon|assault carrier}} and a number of [[Covenant battlecruiser]]s and [[Covenant corvette|corvettes]].{{Ref/Book|Id=HM|HM|Page=82}} During the [[Fall of Reach]] in mid-August, three such carriers appeared as part of the fleet sent by the [[Ministry of Resolution]] to relieve the battered [[Fleet of Valiant Prudence]]. The carriers, and their battlecruiser escort, emerged from [[Slipstream space|slipspace]] in orbit over Reach in the minutes following the destruction of the {{Pattern|Sh'wada|supercarrier}} ''[[Long Night of Solace]]'' at the conclusion of [[Operation: UPPER CUT]].{{Ref/Level|Id=LNoS|HR|Long Night of Solace (level)|Long Night of Solace}}

The carriers have continued to see usage in the [[Post-Covenant War conflicts|post-war era]] in the service of the [[Covenant remnants]]. An unidentified warlord made use of one such vessel, ''[[Purveyor of Virtue]]'', during an attack on a UNSC [[Highpower|fuel processing facility]] at some point following [[2553]]. The carrier was forced onto a level playing field with the defending {{Class|Mulsanne|light frigate}}, {{UNSCShip|Panama}}, as its primary starship weaponry was too powerful to use in the engagement without also destroying the facility it had been instructed to capture. During the battle, ''Purveyor of Virtue''{{'}}s energy shields were attacked by the frigate's [[Brightlance reflex laser]] multiple times.{{Ref/Reuse|CFLegendary}}{{Ref/Map|Id=Highpower|HINF|Highpower}}
