The '''''Ruma''-pattern light carrier'''{{Ref/Book|Id=Enc22|Enc22|Page=263}} {{3Letter|DDS|carrier}}{{Ref/Reuse|EVG}}, is a heavy [[warship]] within the now-defunct [[Covenant fleet]]. During the empire's heyday, the ''Ruma'' served as a second-line vessel for reserve fleets - rarely encountered far from [[harborage]]s and naval depots.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} Although formally classed as light carriers, ''Ruma''-pattern ships may sometimes colloquially be referred to as "supercarriers"; this is an informal term that can be applied to ''Ruma''s alongside larger [[Covenant carrier#Assault carrier|assault carriers]] and [[Covenant carrier#Supercarriers|supercarriers]] to distinguish three types of gargantuan carrier warship from their [[Covenant carrier#Light carriers|much smaller cousins]].{{Ref/Reuse|CFHaveSmoa}}
==Overview==
===Design details===
Unlike the larger and more powerful [[Covenant carrier#Assault carriers|assault carriers]] and [[Covenant carrier#Supercarriers|supercarriers]], the ''Ruma'' is not intended for service on the front lines of a conflict. It measures {{Convert|3000|m|ft}} in length{{Ref/Reuse|EVG}}{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} - just over double that of the [[Covenant carrier#Light carriers|smaller, unidentified light carriers]] and just over half that of an assault carrier. Its form consists of three distinct prongs, similar in nature to a [[Covenant destroyer|destroyer]].{{Ref/Novel|HFS|Chapter=5}} The shieldless [[nanolaminate]] hull of a ''Ruma''-pattern carrier is capable of withstanding heat of up to 300<sup>o</sup>C, with no actual damage done to the carrier's structure.

The '''''DDS''-class carrier'''<ref name="visual"/><ref>[[Halopedia:Covenant Ship Classification Canon Debate|Covenant Ship Classification Halopedia Canon]]</ref> is a heavy [[warship]] within the now-defunct [[Covenant fleet]] that served as a force deployment and occupation warship.<ref name="visual"/>
The ship has a single [[Space fighter|strikecraft]] launch bay located on the ship's belly, capable of storing at least six [[Seraph]] starfighters - and wide enough to accomodate a [[C709 Longsword]].{{Ref/Reuse|FS6}} The hangar's interior layout is broadly similar to that of other Covenant ships such as the {{Pattern|Ket|battlecruiser}}, with excessively high vaulted ceilings, low and indirect lighting, and purple walls stenciled with faintly luminescent geometric patterns. The back of the hangar contains a single, broadly hexagonal, door, which itself leads to the main corridor linking the hangar to the ship's [[bridge]]. The ship is also fitted with numerous engineering corridors for [[Huragok]] use - too small for a [[Sangheili]] to fit through. The engineering corridors share a vent that connects to a small corridor fitted with [[Covenant escape pod|escape pods]], which in turn serves as an alternate (albeit unintended) means of accessing the bridge. Under normal operating conditions, the escape pod bay is classed as an emergency system.{{Ref/Novel|Id=FS7|HFS|Chapter=7}}


==Specifications==
The bridge is circular in nature, and roughly {{Convert|20|m|ft}} in diameter. The centre of the room has a raised platform ringed with [[Holography|holographic]] control surfaces, hovering over a pit in the floor. The walls of the bridge are coated in floor-to-ceiling displays showing the ship's status for the crew.{{Ref/Reuse|FS7}} Twenty decks below the bridge is the engineering deck containing the ship's [[pinch fusion reactor]], which is linked by a series of intervening corridors and an elevator shaft. The reactor is ten metres high, and the centrepiece of the cavernous engineering bay.{{Ref/Novel|Id=FS8|HFS|Chapter=8}}
===Superstructure and hull===
The ''DDS''-class carrier, unlike the larger and more powerful {{Class|CAS|assault carrier}}, is a less frequent, but powerful, [[warship]] within the [[Covenant fleet]]. The primary role of the ''DDS''-class carrier is to support [[Space warfare|fleet actions in space]], or as an infantry deployment platform. The ''DDS''-class carrier has three bulbous sections; its swollen center boasts a total of thirteen launch bays on both sides of the ship.<ref name="FoR">'''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]''', ''page 146'', ''page 171'' (2010 edition)</ref> It is used for command and control of large numbers of deployment waves of [[space fighter]]s, [[dropship]]s, and interceptors.<ref name="visual"/> Like all [[warship]]s, these ships come in a variety of classes and sizes, though military observers note there are variance of weaponry, length, and estimated tonnage.<ref name="sybex">'''Sybex Halo: Combat Evolved PC Strategy Guide''', ''page 73''</ref>


The carrier's hull is reinforced with over thirty meters of [[nanolaminate hull plating]] and equipped with [[energy shielding]].<ref>'''Halo: First Strike''', ''page 266'' (2010 edition)</ref> A single [[plasma torpedo]] is capable of causing several layers of the hull to boil away. The shieldless hull of a ''DDS''-class carrier is capable of withstanding heat of up to three hundred degrees Celsius, with no actual damage done to the carrier's structure.<ref>'''Halo: First Strike''', ''pages 76-79'' (2010 edition)</ref> Only at extreme temperatures of over seventeen hundred degrees Celsius does minor hull tearing and conduit melting occur.<ref>'''Halo: First Strike''', ''page 84''</ref> However, at such high temperatures, the superstructure of the vessel becomes considerably softened.<ref>'''Halo: First Strike''', ''page 223''</ref>
The ship's [[borer]] is considered fairly slow for ships of its mass - something which reinforces its reserve status.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}

The ''Ruma'' carrier ''[[Ascendant Justice]]'' had an official crew count of 3,000; consisting of a hundred [[Sangheili]], a light company of [[Unggoy]], and majority of the crew being [[Huragok]].{{Ref/Reuse|FS7}} It is unclear whether this represents a standard crew for other ships of the class. In more standard operation, ''Ruma''s serve as troop carriers, [[Space fighter|strikecraft]] tenders, and a posting for [[pilot]]s.

The ''DDS''-class carrier holds a crew of three to four thousand Covenant infantry,<ref name="ency"/> most of which were [[Huragok]] in the case of ''Ascendant Justice'', with a light company of [[Unggoy]] and only a hundred [[Sangheili]].<ref>'''Halo: First Strike''', ''page 63''</ref> The crew was available for deployment on a moments notice via the ship's [[gravity lift]] when close to a world's surface.
The ship's ventral hangar is capable of hosting and launching at least six [[Seraph]] fighters.{{Ref/Reuse|FS6}}


===Armaments===
===Armaments===
Like other ships within the Covenant fleet, the ''DDS''-class carrier boasts a vast array of energy weapons.

The ''Ruma'' is relatively lightly armed, given its size, and boasts fairly substandard offensive power for a ship of its mass - lacking any of the heavy or superheavy-grade weaponry that characterises other capital-grade warships in the Covenant inventory such as the {{Pattern|Kerel|assault carrier}} and {{Pattern|Varric|heavy cruiser}}. The carrier's primary weapons system are two ''Ignis''-pattern [[plasma lance]]s, the same model as that equipped on the ''Ket''-pattern battlecruiser.

The Ruma-pattern light carrier[2] (UNSC three-letter classification: DDS-class carrier)[1], is a heavy warship within the now-defunct Covenant fleet. During the empire's heyday, the Ruma served as a second-line vessel for reserve fleets - rarely encountered far from harborages and naval depots.[2] Although formally classed as light carriers, Ruma-pattern ships may sometimes colloquially be referred to as "supercarriers"; this is an informal term that can be applied to Rumas alongside larger assault carriers and supercarriers to distinguish three types of gargantuan carrier warship from their much smaller cousins.[3]

Overview[edit]

Design details[edit]

Unlike the larger and more powerful assault carriers and supercarriers, the Ruma is not intended for service on the front lines of a conflict. It measures 3,000 metres (9,800 ft) in length[1][2] - just over double that of the smaller, unidentified light carriers and just over half that of an assault carrier. Its form consists of three distinct prongs, similar in nature to a destroyer.[6] The shieldless nanolaminate hull of a Ruma-pattern carrier is capable of withstanding heat of up to 300oC, with no actual damage done to the carrier's structure. Only at extreme temperatures of over 1,700oC does minor hull tearing and conduit melting occur.[7]

The ship has a single strikecraft launch bay located on the ship's belly, capable of storing at least six Seraph starfighters - and wide enough to accomodate a C709 Longsword.[4] The hangar's interior layout is broadly similar to that of other Covenant ships such as the Ket-pattern battlecruiser, with excessively high vaulted ceilings, low and indirect lighting, and purple walls stenciled with faintly luminescent geometric patterns. The back of the hangar contains a single, broadly hexagonal, door, which itself leads to the main corridor linking the hangar to the ship's bridge. The ship is also fitted with numerous engineering corridors for Huragok use - too small for a Sangheili to fit through. The engineering corridors share a vent that connects to a small corridor fitted with escape pods, which in turn serves as an alternate (albeit unintended) means of accessing the bridge. Under normal operating conditions, the escape pod bay is classed as an emergency system.[8]

The bridge is circular in nature, and roughly 20 metres (66 ft) in diameter. The centre of the room has a raised platform ringed with holographic control surfaces, hovering over a pit in the floor. The walls of the bridge are coated in floor-to-ceiling displays showing the ship's status for the crew.[8] Twenty decks below the bridge is the engineering deck containing the ship's pinch fusion reactor, which is linked by a series of intervening corridors and an elevator shaft. The reactor is ten metres high, and the centrepiece of the cavernous engineering bay.[7]

The ship's borer is considered fairly slow for ships of its mass - something which reinforces its reserve status.[2]

Complement and crew[edit]

The Ruma carrier Ascendant Justice had an official crew count of 3,000; consisting of a hundred Sangheili, a light company of Unggoy, and majority of the crew being Huragok.[8] It is unclear whether this represents a standard crew for other ships of the class. In more standard operation, Rumas serve as troop carriers, strikecraft tenders, and a posting for pilots. Their pilots are rarely stationed on a Ruma for long, as fresh pilots are frequently rotated to other ships and replaced by battle-weary units coming back from the front for rest and recuperation.[2]

The shipmaster of a Ruma is generally a junior officer, placed into such a role to gain experience and have their skills, devotion, and patience tested in a non-critical role. If successful, they are promoted to more prestigous commands.[2]

The ship's ventral hangar is capable of hosting and launching at least six Seraph fighters.[4]

Armaments[edit]

The Ruma is relatively lightly armed, given its size, and boasts fairly substandard offensive power for a ship of its mass - lacking any of the heavy or superheavy-grade weaponry that characterises other capital-grade warships in the Covenant inventory such as the Kerel-pattern assault carrier and Varric-pattern heavy cruiser. The carrier's primary weapons system are two Ignis-pattern plasma lances, the same model as that equipped on the Ket-pattern battlecruiser. These are augmented by seven[7] Morfen-pattern plasma cannons similar to those employed on the older Maugen-pattern armored cruiser, eight Argament-pattern plasma torpedo silos also shared with the Maugen, and an extensive point-defence network consisting of 75 Pol-pattern pulse laser turrets.[2]

To guide the plasma, the ship is fitted with a magnetic field multiplier; a piece of Covenant technology that acts as a focusing lens of sorts to shape and guide the plasma projectiles fired from their naval weaponry. While aboard Ascendant Justice, Cortana used this system to refine the ship's plasma cannons into firing plasma lance-like beams capable of overpowering other Covenant warships in combat.[7]

Usage[edit]

The Ruma-pattern carrier's main functions are occupation and force deployment;[1] where an assault carrier can serve as a potent space warfare combatant and command ship in its own right, the Ruma is more specialised into the role of troop and fighter transport. They are generally stationed as flagships for second-line and reserve fleets, meaning that they are rarely encountered far from a friendly port capable of servicing them.[2]

In the three-letter ship classification system used by the Office of Naval Intelligence for classifying Covenant spacecraft, the "S", or Salvation, in the carrier's three-letter classification code, "DDS", indicates that the DDS-class carrier is a dedicated warship.[3]

Ships of the line[edit]

Service history[edit]

Shiela Polaski's helmet cam captures footage inside of Ascendant Justice.

At least one, Ascendant Justice, was assigned to the Fleet of Particular Justice and pursued UNSC Pillar of Autumn to Installation 04 after the battle. During the battle, it was the seat of the Minor Prophet of Stewardship until irreconcilable differences between him and Particular Justice Fleetmaster Thel 'Vadamee forced 'Vadamee to board Ascendant Justice and confront the prophet. Stewardship fled to Installation 04 in this time, coming to use the battlecruiser Truth and Reconciliation as his base for the remainder of the campaign.[10][3] Following the Battle of Installation 04, Ascendant Justice was captured by UNSC forces and captained by Vice Admiral Danforth Whitcomb until its destruction during Operation: FIRST STRIKE.[9]
