The D77-TC Pelican-class Dropship is the standard UNSC dropship. The modular underside of its tail can be mounted with a vehicle or set of weapon pods for transportation, and is also capable of holding an expansion for the Pelican's troop bay, increasing its capacity from 15 soldiers to 40. The Pelican can be equipped with several weapons, including a chin-mounted 70mm chaingun, and Anvil-II rocket pods under the forward wing/engine stubs.

Starfighters

C709 Longsword Starfighters

The C709 Longsword Starfighter is a versatile atmospheric/space fighter-bomber with different weapons loadouts for a variety of different missions.Two pilots are usually need to pilot the Longsword. However, in Halo CE the Master Chief is able to pilot one by himself. This means that it is possible to pilot a Longsword alone, or that the Master Chief's neural implants alow him to do so. Longswords usually fly in groups of twelve (one squadron) however they are seen more than once in groups of two when performing straffing runs.Most cruisers probably have a squadron of Longswords accompanying it.

Shortsword-class Starfighters

Shortswords are swept winged fighter-bombers that are designed as a smaller, more agile variant of the Longsword fighter-bomber. Little else is known about the ship but it will make it's first appearance in the upcoming game, Halo Wars.

Support Starships

Calypso-class Exfiltration Crafts

The Calypso is an obsolete set of exfiltration craft replaced by the Black Cats.

Black Cat-class Subprowlers

The Black Cat is a class of exfiltration craft that can hold 38 Spartan-IIIs.

Chiropetra-class Stealth Vessels

The Chiropetra-class Stealth Vessel is a discontinued class of starships used from the early 2500s until 2512. They are thought to be antecedents to the UNSC Prowler. They were discontinued due to being far too unreliable. Their engines and stealth often failed.

Prowlers

The UNSC Prowler is a stealthed electronic intelligence-gathering starship that is lightly armed, but instead depends on its stealthiness to survive.

Laden-class Freighters

Parabola-class Freighters

The Parabola Class Freighter is a civilian ship. They seemed to be used for growing plants.

Light Capital Warships

Mako-class Corvettes

The Mako-class Corvette is supposedly the fastest UNSC starship.

Frigates

Frigate 3.jpg

The UNSC Frigate is a medium warship armed with a single Magnetic Accelerator Cannon, twenty-six Archer Missiles, three Shiva missiles, three Clarion spy drones and a considerable ground compliment.

Stealth Cruisers

The Stealth-class Corvette is the largest Prowler-class ship ever built. Completely radar invisible, and used by ONI as a field command center.

Destroyers

Unlike most ships in the fleet, Destroyers carry no single-ship fighters, such as Longswords - their large mass comes rather from the two meters of Titanium A armour battle plate covering the ship.

Cruisers

Halcyon-class Cruisers

The Pillar of Autumn.jpg

A Halcyon-class Cruiser is the smallest ship to ever receive the cruiser designation, being around one-third the tonnage of a Marathon-class cruiser. Originally, these ships were designated to be scrapped, until 2550 when they were pulled out of long-termed storage to be used in the conflict near Zeta Doratus. The Pillar Of Autumn was one of the few refitted especially for that conflict.

The ships used Mark Two fusion engines, which supply a tenth of the power that the fusion reactors of 2552 do. As far as weapons go, the ship carries a single MAC gun and six Archer-Missile pods. Although the ship is relatively useless in combat, it is nearly indestructible, due to its honeycombed armor that is considered light, by the current battleship standards of 2552.

Marathon-class Cruisers

A Marathon-class Cruiser of the UNSC Home Fleet prior to the Battle of Earth.
