'''''Halo: Warfleet – An Illustrated Guide to the Spacecraft of Halo''''' is a reference book on the [[Halo universe|''Halo'' universe]] that is set to be released on [[2017|September 5, 2017]]<ref name="Bloomsbury"/>. The book will detail the technology, scale, design, construction, and variety of ships, space stations, and colony worlds in the ''Halo'' universe.<ref name="CF" />

The full-color illustrated package covers the fleets of the [[UNSC]], [[Covenant]], and the [[Forerunner]] factions, featuring intricately detailed cross-section illustrations of franchise favorites the [[UNSC Pillar of Autumn|Pillar of Autumn]], [[High Charity]], and the [[Forerunner Dreadnought]]. Other specialized spreads offer a closer look at the weapons used in space, the planets of the Covenant and Human colonies, and the space-faring technology that each utilize.

Described as a more "technical" counterpart to ''[[Halo Mythos]]'', ''Halo: Warfleet'' will feature ten full-color cross-sections of ships by [[W:c:starwars:Hans Jenssen|Hans Jenssen]], known for his work on ''[[W:c:starwars:Star Wars: Incredible Cross-Sections|Star Wars: Incredible Cross-Sections]]'', and John Mullaney, who previously worked on ship cross-sections based on the [[Wikipedia:Firefly (franchise)|''Firefly'' franchise]]. In addition, multiple all-new secondary art pieces by various artists will be included. Written by 343 Industries' internal writing team, with [[Kenneth Peters]] serving as writing lead, ''Warfleet'' will also include a variety of specific technical details and terminology formerly contained to the ''[[Halo Story Bible]]''. The book is divided into five sections: Introduction/Technical Architecture, Human Ships, Covenant Ships, Forerunner Ships, as well as an expansive Glossary. The book will be published in an "oversized" format to accommodate the detail in the larger illustrations. Each spread will include annotations to explain the functions of given parts of a ship, along with statistics and history of the vehicle in question.<ref name="CF"/>

''Halo: Warfleet'' was announced on the [[Halo Waypoint|Halo website]] in an issue of the [[Halo Community Update]] on [[2016#October|October 14, 2016]].<ref name="Announcement">[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/into-the-storm '''Halo Waypoint''' - ''Community Update: Into the Storm'']</ref>

==Trivia==

The {{Class|Halcyon|light cruiser}} on the book's cover is based on the original depiction of the class seen in ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'' (including the ''[[Marathon]]'' logo on the port side) rather than the updated model seen in ''[[Halo: Reach]]'' and later media.<ref>[[:File:PoA.jpg|UNSC ''Pillar of Autumn'' model from ''Halo: Combat Evolved'']]</ref>
