UNSC Milwaukee is a Poseidon-class light carrier in service with the UNSC Navy.[1]

Overview[edit]

Design details[edit]

The Milwaukee was equipped with a reverse engineered Slipspace drive that allowed travel times to be reduced to mere hours. Due to this advanced drive, the ship lacked cryo chambers. Instead, stadium styled seating was put in a large passenger cabin. The roof of the cabin had the ability to polarize, allowing it to turn opaque or transparent.[1]

Service history[edit]

By September 2558, the Milwaukee was re-purposed as a large passenger ferry to and from Onyx. Molly Patel and several hundred passengers took the Milwaukee to reach Onyx at this time. During the trip, they received a briefing and presentation about Onyx from Director Hugo Barton.[1]
