:I can see that. But just as you said, they are like UNSC frigates, which is definitely a starship. If they have specialized VTOL engines like on the UNSC Frigate, then they must use them only, and I stress ''only'', for take-off. And it seems to me that these ships have certain starship characteristics common in most human-designed starships in ''Halo''. Correct me if I'm wrong, which I very much doubt, but it does seem to me that it does have a somewhat thicker hull, indication of what suggests an internal pressurized atmosphere that would be used for most starships, not just spacecraft in general. Besides, ''Halo'' is science fiction, so therefore spacecraft become spaceships or starships. --[[User talk:Xamikaze330|Xamikaze330]] 13:15, 28 November 2011 (EST)Xamikaze330 | :I can see that.

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 | Not always.

: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 | :It's a starship.
