The UNSC Carrier is a classification of warships within the UNSC Navy.
Armament
UNSC carriers are armed with a single Magnetic Accelerator Cannon, 300 Archer missiles, two fusion rockets. They carry large numbers of Longsword-class interceptors and likely Shortsword-class bombers,[citation needed] as well as numerous Pelican-class dropships, as fits their role as carriers. They also transport contingents of Marines and Orbital Drop Shock Troopers and likely transport vehicles for said ground forces.
Size
UNSC carriers are three kilometers long,[1] nearly the length of a Covenant Reverence-class cruiser.[2] This makes them one of the largest ships used by the UNSC Navy.
