The Covenant Stealth[1] Corvette was a small starship in the Covenant Fleet.
This starship was an identified intelligence-gathering starship, with stealth-capable systems[2] that made it appear to waver in and out of space and range and also complex fire-control jamming systems that could disrupt UNSC Archer missiles targeting computers.[3] These electronic countermeasures ensured its survival against enemy warships while it gathered required intelligence. These Corvettes also had an extensive sensor suite to gather such information.
One such example of a starship participated in the Battle of Sigma Octanus IV and was rammed by the Iroquois.[4]
This is most probably the Covenant equivalent of the UNSC Prowler.
