Talk:B-65 Shortsword

Well, it looks like that info was removed, so no need for this anymore.

Where's said it's only atmospheric craft? Oh and new gameplay footage makes clear that the Shortswords are launched from Spirit of Fire, from orbit, thus they must be able to fly in space too.

Uh... Check the facts! IS Shortsword atmospheric craft really? And if it's, where's source? Woorloog 15:06, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

Human Banshee? I don't see much banshee in it at all, just a very small amount from the front.Laghing rabt 04:06, November 27, 2009 (UTC)

Long Sword interceptors were used during the battle of chi cheti IV
Somebody has stated that the short sword might well be the predocessor of the longsword. However the time line of halo wars and the battle of chi cheti IV are about the same. At that battle they used a squadron of longswords to bomb the covenant ship while the shields were down before hitting it with a shiva nuke. Read the book the fall of reach. The longswords have been around for a long time. I do not think the shortsword is the predecessor but rather a variant of the longsword serving a more specialised purpose.

Size
Would any one happen to be able to give me a refrence as to excactly how big this thing is? It doesn't look like it would be as big as a longsword. I think, It would be closer to the size of the the seraph or something. I haven't seen the thing ouside of a few pictures so I got no refrence to its size. that makes it difficult when trying to create a mod version.Laghing rabt 03:57, November 27, 2009 (UTC)
