Template:Ratings Template:Ship The UNSC Carrier is a classification of warships within the UNSC Fleet.

Armory

UNSC Carriers are armed with Archer Missiles and most likely have contingents of Longsword Interceptors and Shortsword bombers; in fitting with their combat role.

Power

Based on evidence, it appears that UNSC Carriers are rarer than Marathon-class Cruisers, which instigates doubt that the Marathon classification is truly the most powerful warship classification in the UNSC Navy. This is additionally reinforced by the fact that UNSC Battle Group Stalingrad had a UNSC Carrier (the UNSC Stalingrad) as its flagship even when there was a Marathon-class Cruiser as well within the Battlegroup.

Size

If estimations and theories are accurate, then these ships may be 1.5 kilometers long; near to the length of a Covenant CCS-class Battlecruiser. In Halo: Ghosts Of Onyx, pg. 270, it is mentioned that a Carrier is less than 3km long.
