The CAR-class frigate is a classification of frigate within the now-defunct Covenant fleet. Several frigates of this class participated in the Fall of Reach.[2] The "R", or Reverence, in the frigate's three-letter classification code, "CAR", denotes that the frigate is capable of conducting reconnaissance missions and is capable of excavating Forerunner artifacts.[3] CAR-class light frigates had at least one hanger.[1]

Behind the scenes
The CAR-class frigate was first mentioned in Transmissions, a type of promotion for the then-new game Halo: Combat Evolved. The transmissions are directly linked to the Cortana Letters and are considered canon because of their inclusion in the Halo Encyclopedia.
