  3. ^ a b Spartan Games, Autumn-class Heavy Cruiser: Defunct "This Autumn-class heavy cruiser represents a considerable leap forwards in human warship design, and is a testament to the UNSCs technological prowess and industrial resilience. Using improvements and modifications made to the Halcyon-class light cruiser for Operation: RED FLAG as a starting point, the naval architects at SinoViet Heavy Machinery have added energy shield-reinforced armor, powerful fusion drives, long-range targeting matrixes, and a state-of-the-art magnetic accelerator cannon. These new weapons and systems are continually being improved to give the UNSC a competitive edge in battles against Covenant remnants and other threats that may yet arise." (Retrieved on Apr 7, 2017)
