The Anlace-class frigate is a class of frigate in service with the UNSC Navy.[1]

Specifications

Superstructure and hull

The Anlace-class' design is considered somewhat novel for the UNSC Navy, with a lifting body hull and maneuvering systems well adapted for atmospheric operations.[4] The Anlace-class frigate is the smallest frigate currently in service with the UNSC Navy, with a length of 372 meters (1,220 feet).[2]

Armament

Offensively, the Anlace-class lacks a spinal Magnetic Accelerator Cannon[5] and missile pods in the most common configuration. Instead, it relies on directed energy weapons for sustained combat operations between resupply.[4] Nevertheless, a small MAC is built atop the frigate, mounted further back than on other models.[3]

Operational history

In the aftermath of the Human-Covenant War, hundreds of Anlace and Strident-class heavy frigates are being assembled in the shipyards above Mars and Tribute to replace combat losses and engage remnants of the Covenant still occupying the Outer Colonies.[1]

UNSC Infinity is capable of carrying a small fleet of ten frigates of either the Anlance or Strident class in its sub-vessel bays.[6] Some Anlace frigates were deployed by the UNSC Infinity during the Battle of Kamchatka on October 2558.[4]
