*Well, I don't think the ''Ascendant Justice'' is an Assault Carrier for that matter anyway. The ''Ascendant Justice'' is 3000m long and is bulbous like a covenant destroyer, whereas the Assault Carrier we see in Halo 2 is supposed to be somewhere around 5000m long and isn't bulbous, more round and flat.--'''[[User:Rotaretilbo|Rot]]''' 1853 7.12.06

:*I believe it was mentioned as such in the FS but I don't have the book with me.  The ''Ascendant Justice'' was listed in this article when it was migrated and as such I am unable to tell who first stated that the ''Ascendant Justice'' was a [[Covenant Assault Carrier]].  Although [[User:Dragonclaws|Admin Dragonclaws]] seems to have written it. -- [[User:Esemono|Esemono]] 03:09, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

::*[[Halo: First Strike]] only refers to the ''Ascendant Justice'' as a flagship, and makes a reference that it is a carrier. However, Carrier and Assault Carrier may well be seperate ships, as Assault Carrier might be a larger version of Carrier, similar to the Supercarrier. However, all of that is also speculation, so for now I would say that we cannot say with 100% surity (is that a word? better than sureness I suppose) that the ''Ascendant Justice'' is of the Assault Carrier variety, so it should be removed from the article.--'''[[User:Rotaretilbo|Rot]]''' 2147 7.12.06

No offence, but as it says in many articles, a flagship can be any type of ship that heads the fleet, usually the larger, more powerful ones though. An assault carrier is closer to 5400 meters than 3000 meters. Also, as previously mentioned, the Ascendant Justice could have been a carrier. They may both be similar in appearance, but either way, it was powerful enough to be used as a flagship. [[user:Honor Guard Reborn]]

:I'm not exactly sure about the internal layout for an Assault Carrier, but I really doubt that the head was "bolted on".

::It's certainly possible, but it would be poor design as making a part separate always make it easier to break apart. Poor designs don't survive battles. And Assault Carriers certainly did.
