"A glorified tug."

— Black-Box's description of the Piety

The Hudal-class auxiliary vessel is a type of Covenant auxiliary ship.

Specifications

Hudal-class auxiliaries are small vessels, around the size of a D77-TC Pelican. It has only two compartments: the bridge and the cargo hold. Because of its small size, it is not equipped with a slipspace drive. It has no hardening against electromagnetic pulses; a single EM pulse could disable it. It is only equipped with a single heavy plasma cannon.

Operational history

On February 2553, the Piety was delivering a valuable Huragok to the Servants of the Abiding Truth. The UNSC Port Stanley learned of the Huragok's existence, and ambushed the ship with its EMP cannon. After the Jiralhanae crew was eliminated and the Huragok captured, the ship was sent back to space—but with its navigational records altered and several Kig-Yar bodies "armed" with UNSC weaponry placed onboard to divert suspicion.
