Not always. The [[Vulture]] appears to float similarly like a Frigate (minus the propellors it uses for turning), and can exit out of the atmosphere to a limited extent, but that doesn't make it capable of slipspace travel, or even intended for long distance out-of-atmosphere travel. Whether the hull looks thicker or not is hard to tell from the outside, so again we can not assume what its capabilities are without any kind of proof of them.

:It's a starship. There is no other logical explanation. I mean, where else would those ships go? The entire planet Reach has been compromised by the Covenant. No place planetside is considered "safe" from the Covenant. So logically, the ships would have to leave Reach orbit and head out-system to another uncompromised UNSC-controlled planet, after following the Cole Protocol. I've said it before, and I'll say it again: gravitational slingshot trajectory. It all makes sense. A ship doesn't necessarily need a bulky rocket booster pack to break planetary gravity, they can just use the planet's gravity to do it for them, to help them. Their fusion drive engines are powerful enough, the hull thick enough to withstand the burning atmospheric friction, what else could it be except a civilian starship? Did I mention that the ships seemed to be heading out-of-atmosphere, out-of-orbit? --[[User talk:Xamikaze330|Xamikaze330]] 14:27, 28 November 2011 (EST)Xamikaze330

As of August 23rd, the Fleet of Particular Justice had not arrived and most of the Covenant fighting was still relegated to the Viery Territory. So there were still plenty safe places of Reach as the full battle had not emerged yet. Can you prove that "the ships seemed to be heading out-of-atmosphere, out-of-orbit"? [[:File:Transports Away.png|It doesn't look it]], there's no proof of that. And just because something looks like it can exit the atmosphere doesn't make it capable of interplanetary travel. Look at the Pelican, it can exit into space, and attempt a slingshot orbit but that doesn't make it slipspace travel capable. One can interepret that they ''might'' be spaceships, but there's no proof of that, only interpretation. Until you have proof that "their fusion drive engines are powerful enough, the hull thick enough to withstand the burning atmospheric friction", then it can not be legitimately claimed that it is a spacecraft and that there is "no other logical explanation". "VTOL Airplane" works just fine.
