Kewu-pattern battleship

The supercruiser is a classification of extremely powerful capital warship within the Covenant Navy.

Design Details
The supercruiser is approximately 3.5 kilometers in length, over three times that of the UNSC. They are durable enough to withstand one nuclear mine detonation, or even three Magnetic Accelerator Cannon rounds and nearly five hundred Archer missile impacts. However, they are more vulnerable to larger-scale MAC weaponry, as the only known supercruiser used a hit-and-run tactic to avoid fire from the planet Reach's Orbital Defense Platforms' "Super" MACs.

Operational History
The only supercruiser known to have been encountered by the UNSC was present at the Fall of Reach in August 2552. During the battle, it destroyed many UNSC ships, including the Musashi, the Minotaur and the Herodotus, before being engaged by the. The two ships battled it out, with the Autumn using its upgraded MAC gun and over 500 missiles to drop the shields and damage it. The Autumn then launched a remote-controlled Longsword armed with a Shiva missile, which impacted the ship while its energy shields were in the process of recharging. The explosion was contained by the newly-regenerated shields, multiplying the destructive blast exponentially. During the battle, the supercruiser hit the Autumn twice with its main weapon, but due to the Autumn's design and the tactics of its captain and AI, the ship survived, albeit badly damaged.

Weapons
Like many other Covenant vessels, the supercruiser possesses several energy projectors, which it can use to slice through enemy vessels and (presumably) engage in glassing operations.

Complement
Given its gigantic size, (second only to the assault carrier and supercarrier), it is likely able to carry hundreds of Seraph-class starfighters and dropships. Moreover, it probably carries large numbers of ground vehicles and troops, possibly entire legions.
