The '''''Sharpfin''-class escort corvette''' is a human-made corvette that was popular with both space pirates and commercial escort services a century before the [[Human-Covenant War]]. They were primarily used to guard colonial supply convoys. By modern standards, however, these compact vessels were under-armed and slow, which is why they were rarely used even for routine tasks like planetary customs patrols.{{Ref/Reuse|H015}}
