Armageddon's Edge[edit]

I can't find any link between the UNSC Armageddon's Edge and the Halberd-class destroyer. There are approximately 4 different destroyer class ships in the Halo fiction. What is the exact qualifying reference for this ship? -ScaleMaster117 (talk) 15:28, 21 February 2015 (EST)

The description of the Armageddon's Edge is very similar to other Halberd-class destroyers, most notably the description of its arrowhead-shaped nose. Honestly, when I wrote the article I also confused the Armageddon's Edge with the Iroquois, as I mistakenly believed that the Armageddon's Edge is the ship that Keyes' described as being seven meters longer than a Stalwart-class. Still, I think the description of the Armageddon's Edge should be enough to qualify it as being a ship of this class. If not, feel free to remove all references to The Cole Protocol in the article. - NightHammer (talk) 15:53, 21 February 2015 (EST)
No, that should be good enough. The reference is to page 19 which in my version is just a mostly blank page with PART 1 written on it.

More than two pelicans[edit]

In Halo:Oblivion the destroyer Chaco is said to send four pelicans to Netherop to investigate the lucky break. they could be D75s. Should we add this to the complement section? King Under The Mountain (talk) 22:57, October 26, 2019 (EDT)King Under The Mountain

The Pelicans were indeed D75s. If there were four, we should definitely mention that. CMDR RileySV (talk) 20:50, November 1, 2019 (EDT)
