''Forward Unto Dawn'' underwent a major redesign in ''[[Halo 4]]'', though [[343 Industries]] writer [[Jeff Easterling]] has since confirmed that the ship's original appearance is considered canon.<ref>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/ | ''Forward Unto Dawn'' underwent a major redesign in ''[[Halo 4]]'', though [[343 Industries]] writer [[Jeff Easterling]] has since confirmed that the ship's original appearance is considered canon.<ref>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/canon-fodder-have-s-moa '''Halo Waypoint:''' ''Canon Fodder - Have S'moa'']</ref> A modified version of the design is used as the appearance of the {{Class|Strident|heavy frigate}}. | ||
Despite maintaining a [[:File:Infinity fud scale.jpg|generally similar profile]], the ship appears much larger, with more of the forward half remaining intact. This increase in scale was intended to create a more interesting playspace, much like the dramatic upscaling of the {{UNSCShip|Pillar of Autumn}} in ''[[The Maw]]''; otherwise, the first level's playspace would have been cramped and required a great deal of backtracking. The scale is further confused as the ''Dawn'' dwarfs the 300-meter {{Pattern|Zanar|light cruiser}}s encountered in the level. The ship's cryotubes have also been remodeled and the cryo bay has been rearranged. | Despite maintaining a [[:File:Infinity fud scale.jpg|generally similar profile]], the ship appears much larger, with more of the forward half remaining intact.
