The Covenant Battleship[1] was a heavy warship classification in the Covenant fleet, classified as a Capital ship. This warship was two kilometers long, had five bulbous sections, and bristled with a dozen energy projectors - enough weapons to decimate any UNSC fleet from long range. It was larger than most Covenant warships, even surpassing the keel length of the CCS-class Battlecruiser, but itself was dwarfed by the Covenant Flagship(flagships seem usually to be Assault carriers or Super carriers-e.g.Sublime Transcendence-not a seperate class as is sometimes stated) and the Covenant Assault Carrier. It is believed to be extremely heavily armed for its size, as it possessed a dozen projectors at two kilometers whereas the Covenant Supercruiser had five projectors, but was longer than 3.5 kilometers.
Multiple battleships defended the Unyielding Hierophant.
