Covenant battleship

The Covenant Battleship was a heavy warship classification in the Covenant fleet, classified as a cruiser. This warship was two kilometers long, had five bulbous sections, and bristled with a dozen energy projectors - enough weapons to decimate any UNSC fleet from long range. It was larger than most Covenant warships, even surpassing the keel length of the CCS-class Battlecruiser, but itself was dwarfed by the Covenant Flagship and the Covenant Assault Carrier. It is believed to be extremely heavily armed for its size, as it possessed a dozen projectors at two kilometers whereas the Covenant Supercruiser had five projectors, but was longer than 3.5 kilometers.

Multiple battleships defended the Unyielding Hierophant.

Template:CovenantShips You cannot clasify a vessel as a 'battleship'but also a cruiser.A cruiser can have a longer keel/hull length(as was the case with cruisers at Jutland)and this is the case with some Covenant cruisers. ' At the 'Warrior of the prophets' site thee is no 'battleship' designation,only 'flagship'.I suggest therefote,that the flagship should be classified as a 'battleship'-heavily armed but still smaller than the largest cruiser/carrier,though a flagship just carries a flag admiral,they tend to be battleships(e.g.Iowa class that took Japanese surrender)

'Dreadnought' the smaller ship,and 'super-dreadnought' for the larger(flag type) would also suit-heavy warship etc means nothing.Capital ship would be a slightly better term to use.
