The Covenant Stealth[1] Corvette was a small starship in the Covenant Navy.
Similar in design, if not implementation, to the UNSC's Prowler-class stealth vessels, the Covenant versions used active camouflage like systems to render them imperceptible to UNSC sensors, and visually invisible.[1] It also possessed electronic countermeasures, able to interfere with the guidance systems of Archer missiles, and was able to gather intelligence.[1] One of these managed to survive for a time above Sigma Octanus IV, before it was rammed by the UNSC Iroquois.[2]
At least one Covenant Corvette was present during the Fall of Reach, which engaged a UNSC Frigate in the planet's orbit, with SPARTAN-B312 assisting in a Saber.[3]
