The Brigantine heavy carrier is an ancient heavy carrier class, designed by the Sangheili prior to the establishment of the Covenant. Centuries after being rendered obsolete as a mainline warship within the Covenant fleet, Brigantines were placed in Covenant missionary and tithe fleets throughout a majority of the empire's existence. Following the Covenant's fall during the Great Schism, Brigantines have since been brought back into service as a command ship by Sangheili factions during the Blooding Years, primarily the Swords of Sanghelios and Jul 'Mdama's Covenant faction.[1] These ships have since then been upgraded to modern specifications.[2]
