The Covenant Supercarrier[1] was a heavy warship classification within the Covenant Navy.
Multiple Supercarriers of the Second Fleet of Homogeneous Clarity defended the massive space station of High Charity[2] and one such vessel served as the Flagship of the Combined Fleet of Righteous Purpose.[3][4] Long Night of Solace, a supercarrier deployed to Reach, was destroyed by a makeshift Slipspace bomb during the Fall of Reach, as part of Operation: UPPERCUT by Jorge-052. The bomb was planted on board a Covenant corvette set for a refueling trip to the supercarrier.
Description
Overall, the supercarrier is an extremely large and well-equipped ship, easily dwarfing other Covenant starship classes. The ship itself is, much like the similar assault carrier, comprised of several bulbous sections and a hook-like prow. The interior of the ship has yet to be seen, but would most likely have a similar appearance to other Covenant ships.

Trivia
- In Halo: Reach, the appearance of the Supercarrier is very similar to that of the Covenant assault carrier. The most obvious difference between the two, apart from their size, is a slightly elongated neck between the fore and aft sections.
