Template:Ship Class Infobox The Mako-class corvette[1] is a light capital warship classification in the UNSC Navy, and a sub-class of the UNSC corvette.
Background
Little is known about the Mako-class in particular, but since they are corvettes, they most likely carry lighter ship-to-ship weapons and/or troops, and unlikely to deploy its own fighter support. Mako-class corvettes were also renowned for being one of the smallest ships in the UNSC fleet mounted with a reliable, usable slipspace drive.[2]
Operational service
The Mako-class was once favored largely in part to its small size, but was eventually decommissioned due to maintenance issues.[2] Several of such corvettes were used by the Eridanus rebels at their asteroid base of Eridanus Secundus, used by the rebels as part of their improvised fleet.[1]
