UNSC Musashi

The UNSC Musashi was a UNSC Carrier. The Musashi saw action at the Battle of Reach where it was destroyed while moving to cover the Orbital Defense Platforms. A needles thin beam of plasma from a Covenant Assault Carrier severed the Musashi amidship. The aft section probably crashed into the fore section as the engines continued to thrust.

Background
The ship shares its name with the Japanese battleship from the Second World War.
