The ship designated ONI PRO-49776[1] was a specialized stealth vessel used by the Office of Naval Intelligence and captained by Lucius R. Jiron.[2]
Operational history
- Main article: Raid on the Third Fleet of Glorious Consequence
The ship was sent by the ONI to retrieve a high-priority "package" from a Covenant fleet trapped in a stellar magnetic field that prevented them from jumping into Slipspace. Onboard, there were five SPARTAN-IIs who were eventually sent out to retrieve it using OF92-EVA Booster Frames stored onboard the stealth ship. After the Spartans successfully retrieved the package and the Covenant fleet jumped away, the stealth ship de-cloaked and destroyed the remaining Seraph fighters. After picking the Spartans up, the ship re-cloaked.[2]
Complement
The ship had a ventral launch bay fitted with hook systems used to deploy OF92-EVA Booster Frames. Instead of using photoreactive panels for stealth like the prowlers, this ship utilized a more advanced, bubble-like cloaking field projected around it to conceal it from view. It also utilized a type of advanced directed energy weaponry, capable of dispatching Covenant Seraphs with ease. These directed energy weapons are possibly pulse lasers.[2]
Trivia
Despite the ship's stealth capabilities and the "PRO" classification in its registry number, Frank O'Connor has stated that the ship is not a prowler.[3] However, prowlers depicted in The Mona Lisa motion comic and in Halo: Fall of Reach - Invasion feature an unmistakably similar design. As the term "prowler" can refer to a variety of ships, including the stealth cruiser Point of No Return, it is likely that PRO-49776 does represent a special type of prowler, albeit not of the standard 162 meter long kind.
