A Covenant Cruiser is a type of heavy-tonnage Covenant starship within the Covenant Navy. The Covenant Cruiser, however, should not be confused with the Covenant CCS-class Battlecruiser.

Overview

The Cruiser is larger than the Covenant Light Cruiser but is smaller than the Covenant Carrier. They are armed with five Plasma Turrets and laterally-mounted pulse lasers,[1] but lack a compliment of supplementary Seraph-class Starfighters. Like other Covenant ships, the Covenant Cruiser is roughly oblong in shape with touches of a purple and blue color scheme.
