There is more information available on this subject at Battleship on the English Wikipedia. |
A battleship is a type of ship utilized by several factions.
Types
UNSC
- Main article: UNSC starship
| Class | Image | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Vindication-class light battleship |  |
At some point prior to the Battle of Alpha Corvi II, the 1.6 kilometre-long Vindication-class light battleship entered service.[1] Several Vindication-class light battleships vessels engaged the Didact's flagship over Earth in support of the UNSC's own flagship, Infinity. Three Vindications later participated in the Requiem Campaign.[2][3] |
Covenant
| Class | Image | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Rasus-pattern interdictor |  |
The Covenant used two-kilometer-long battleships during the Human-Covenant War, particularly during the Fall of Reach.[4] A significant number was later amassed at the space station Unyielding Hierophant, though they were destroyed in Operation: FIRST STRIKE.[5] |
| Kewu-pattern battleship |  |
The Kewu-pattern was comissioned, unusually, by the Ministry of Concert during the Ninth Age of Reclamation. This was viewed as highly unusual, and the design broke many conventions of naval architecture and pattern approval processes, though was ultimately blessed by the Hierarchs in an extremely unorthodox process.[6] One of theese vessels was present at the Fall of Reach, during the battle it destroyed many UNSC ships, including the Musashi, the Minotaur and the Herodotus, but the vessel was ultimately destroyed by the UNSC Pillar of Autumn.[7] |
Related vehicles
- Valiant-class super-heavy cruiser - initially drafted by the UNSC Navy as a compromise between a battleship and heavy cruiser.[8]
