Vindication-class light battleship
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
This class of ship was utilized by the United Nations Space Command in the years following the Human-Covenant War.
Overview
Design
This class of ship is flat, with dorsal and ventral hull plating. The bow is slanted, the dorsal side features several antennae protruding from it.[1]
Service history
Several ships of this class were part of Battlegroup Dakota and attacked the Mantle's Approach during the Didact's attack on Earth in 2557.[1] During the Requiem campaign, at least 3 ships of this class assisted in deploying fireteams to the surface in order to find Dr. Halsey after her abduction.[2]
Behind the scenes
These ships are intended to appear only in the background during the level Midnight. However, exploiting a glitch allows the player to examine these vessels up close, along with two other theretofore-unseen classes. Because these ships are intended to appear only as scenery, they are rendered as brushes rather than level geometry; as such, the player can fly the Broadsword through them without harm.
