The '''Stealth Cruiser''' was a starship in the [[UNSC]] fleet. Stealth Cruisers are the largest ''Prowler''-class vessels built, the length of a [[UNSC Destroyer]]. There is only one known ship of the class in existence, the {{UNSCShip|Point of No Return}}, due primarily to the sheer expense of manufacturing the [[Stealth Ablative Coating|stealth ablative coating]] that rendered it invisible from radar and other sensors and limited visual camouflage, and the problems incurred maintaining this ablative layer.
 
While in service, [[Station Delphi]] was used to manufacture at least one other Stealth Cruiser, which was abandoned when the station was decommissioned. Its [[Shaw-Fujikawa Translight Engine]] would later play a part in the abduction and conscription of [[Kurt-051]] into the [[Spartan-III]] Program.
 
== Summary ==
The UNSC ''Point of No Return'' was constructed in parts and then assembled in deep space. It was completely radar-invisible and when the baffled engines ran below 30%, the craft was dark as interstellar space. This ship was the wartime field command and control platform for the [[UNSC]] [[Office of Naval Intelligence]], NavSpecWep Section Three. Very few people have ever seen the ship and even less have actually been aboard this vessel.
 
=== Interior ===
The inside of the ship was just as mysterious, with stainless-steel walls brushed to a white reflective shield, as was most of the ship's insides. The floors oddly enough weren't the same white color as the walls, being described as metal grates. It also contained a [[Faraday Cage]], completely sealed off from the rest of the ship, known as "the Cage", where meetings of an extremely classified nature could be conducted in absolute secrecy. It is unknown whether, if there are other ships of the class, they possess similar chambers.
